Our Garage Door Maintenance Process

We follow a proven, step-by-step process to keep your system running efficiently:

1. Inspection: We examine the entire system, including springs, cables, rollers, and tracks, to detect early signs of wear.
2. Lubrication: All moving parts—rollers, hinges, and bearings—are lubricated for quieter performance.
3. Tightening and alignment: We tighten bolts and brackets, check track alignment, and ensure the door is balanced.
4. Safety checks: Openers and sensors are tested for proper function and response time.
5. Final tune-up: The system is tested several times to confirm smooth operation.

This process minimizes future repair needs and ensures long-lasting performance.

Benefits of Routine Garage Door Maintenance

Homeowners who schedule regular maintenance enjoy a variety of benefits:

• Extended lifespan of the entire garage door system
• Improved safety through consistent inspections
• Quieter operation thanks to lubrication and adjustments
• Prevention of major repairs by identifying small issues early
• Enhanced reliability during daily use

Maintenance is a small investment that delivers lasting peace of mind.

Common Issues Prevented by Maintenance

Routine service can prevent common garage door problems such as:

• Noisy operation or vibration during use
• The door is getting stuck or moving unevenly
• Frayed cables or weakened springs
• Misaligned sensors are causing safety interruptions
• Unbalanced doors that strain the opener

Addressing these potential problems before they worsen saves time and money in the long run.

Garage Door Opener Maintenance

Your opener is a vital part of your garage door system, and it also needs regular attention. During maintenance, we:

• Check motor function and force calibration
• Clean and align sensors
• Test remote controls and wall switches
• Lubricate moving parts in chain or belt drives

These small adjustments ensure your opener works consistently, reducing the risk of sudden failure.

The Value of Preventive Care

Preventive maintenance not only keeps your garage door running smoothly but also protects your home. A well-maintained system prevents accidents caused by broken cables or malfunctioning sensors. It also improves energy efficiency by ensuring proper door sealing and alignment.

When to Schedule Maintenance

Most garage doors should be serviced at least once a year. However, if you use your garage frequently, consider semi-annual tune-ups. Schedule maintenance if you notice:

• Unusual noises or slower movement
• The door feels heavy or uneven
• The opener doesn’t respond properly
• Visible rust or frayed components

Early maintenance ensures your system stays reliable throughout the year.
