Different sounds can mean different things
Squeaking, rattling, grinding, scraping and popping can come from different parts of the door and opener system.
Look for changes in movement too
Noise combined with shaking, binding or uneven travel deserves more attention than sound alone.
Avoid indiscriminate adjustment
Do not loosen loaded spring hardware or make random opener-force adjustments in an attempt to silence the door.
