Essential Garage Door Maintenance Tips

While we pride ourselves in providing the best garage door repair, we also believe in educating our customers. Here are some basic tips on keeping your garage door in mint condition:

Check the Door: Take time to visually inspect your garage door. Observe for rusted metal components or cracked wooden doors. Detection at an early stage will save you from expensive fixes later on.

Lubricate the moving parts: Ensure the smooth opening and closing of the garage door with much reduced noise and prolong the lifespan by lubricating rollers, tracks, and hinges using a silicone-based lubricant.

Check Garage Door Balance: A garage door that is not in balance puts unnecessary wear and tear on the garage door opener and may contribute to other problems. Detach the opener and push or pull the door halfway open. If the door doesn’t budge, it’s balanced. If it falls or rises, it needs adjustment.

Check Weather Seal: Check the weather sealing along the bottom of your garage door. If frayed or cracked, be sure to replace it; this way, you also preserve the energy efficiency of your garage and prevent it from pest infestation.

Clean The Tracks and Drib: Tidy the tracks. As dirt and dust accumulate and settle in the tracks themselves, this can cause jams to occur in the process. Tidy them clean often to make the swinging more effortless.

Inspect Springs and Cables: These are crucial parts of your garage door. Observe the wear on the cables, which tend to fray over time, and rusting springs. Any of these requires contacting a professional to fix it.

Tighten Loose Hardware: With time, screws and bolts will loosen due to the movement of the door. You need to check and tighten all hardware to keep your garage door secure.

Test the Safety Features: Your garage door has safety sensors, so it won’t close over an obstacle. You need to test these safety features often to ensure they are working correctly.
