Before you touch the door
If you heard a bang, or the door hangs crooked, or a cable is loose, stop using the opener and keep everyone out from under the door. Springs and cables hold a lot of force, and they can hurt you.
If your car is shut inside, do not try to muscle the door up. Tell the contractor the car is stuck when you call, and ask what can be done about it.
If the power is out, the door itself is probably fine. Here is how to open it by hand.
