Common Causes of Garage Door Repairs

Worn-out Springs: A garage door’s springs can wear out over time due to constant tension and use. When these springs break, the door can’t operate correctly.
Misaligned Tracks: If the garage door tracks become misaligned, it can make it difficult for the door to move up or down smoothly, potentially leading to further damage.
Broken Cables: The cables of a garage door assist in the lifting and lowering process. Over time, they can fray or snap, hindering operation.
Faulty Openers: Automatic garage door openers can malfunction due to electrical issues, gear wear, or software glitches.
Damaged Panels: External impacts, such as from vehicles or heavy winds, can dent or damage garage door panels.
Worn Rollers: Rollers ensure smooth movement of the door along its tracks. With time, they can wear out or become misshapen, causing operational issues.
Lack of Lubrication: Regular lubrication can increase friction, noise, and potential damage to moving parts.
Compromised Weather Seals: Weather seals degrade over time, leading to water leaks, drafts, and potential damage to the garage’s contents.
Sensor Issues: Modern garage doors have sensors for safety. Dirt, misalignment, or technical faults can cause these sensors to malfunction.
General Wear and Tear: Garage doors experience wear and tear like all mechanical systems. Regular usage without maintenance can lead to a variety of operational issues.

Tips to Maintain Your Garage Door

1. Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect all parts of the garage door, checking for wear, damage, or unusual noises that may indicate a problem.
2. Lubricate Moving Parts: Regularly lubricate the rollers, springs, and hinges using a high-quality garage door lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
3. Test Balance: Disconnect the opener and manually lift the door halfway. The balance might be off if it doesn’t stay in place, indicating spring issues.
4. Check Cables: Inspect the cables for signs of fraying or wear, and call a professional if replacement is needed.
5. Clean and Align Sensors: Wipe the sensors with a soft cloth and ensure they are aligned correctly to detect obstructions.
6. Replace Weather Stripping: If you notice cracks or gaps in the weather stripping, replace it to ensure the garage remains insulated.
7. Tighten Hardware: Over time, hardware can become loose. Periodically tighten bolts and brackets to ensure stability.
8. Avoid DIY Spring Repairs: Garage door springs are taut and dangerous. Always consult a professional for repairs.
9. Keep Tracks Clean: Regularly clean the tracks to remove Dirt or debris, ensuring smooth door movement.
10. Conduct a Reverse Mechanism Test: For garage doors with automatic openers, periodically test the reverse mechanism. The door should reverse when it encounters an obstruction.
Adhering to these maintenance tips can prolong the lifespan of your garage door, ensuring it operates efficiently and safely.
