Antenna raises and lowers but makes grinding sound when it reaches end of cycle.

That means that the gears on the spine are likely stripping. You can replace just the mast and spine but there may be more damage than just that.

You may have to replace the whole antenna with motor instead of just the spine. You need to start a new question for your door issue.
