Garage Door Opener Parts Events

MIDLOTHIAN, VA: A mystery is unfolding in one Midlothian, Virginia neighborhood.

No matter what residents do, their clickers aren’t opening up their garages.

“We tried using it different ways getting it closer to the garage just different angles and positions and we tried changing batteries,” explained resident Taylor Anderson.

It isn’t just happening to the Anderson family, but to more than two dozen other residents near Welby Drive in the Tarrington neighborhood.

Residents say their clickers stopped working around Christmas Eve.

One family even got locked out of their home for a couple hours because of it.

Right now most of the garage doors will only open by the wall button, and some will open with clicker inside the garage, but once you step outside it’s dead again.

Some residents believe the disconnection could be due to the military taking over garage frequencies in 2004, but the Aamelia Overhead Doors Company that installed most of the garages door openers in the neighborhood says it changed its frequency long ago.

They plan to come out to figure out the issue, but a spokesperson believes someone in the neighborhood may have installed something that’s now messing up everyone’s frequency.
