Door or opener? A quick test
With the door fully closed, pull the release handle, usually a red cord hanging from the opener's rail. Then try lifting the door by hand.
If it lifts easily, the opener is the likely cause. If it feels very heavy, stop and lower it. That points to a spring or cable, and a door in that state can fall.
