Question 1

How often should I have my garage door serviced?

Accepted Answer

We recommend having your garage door professionally serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance helps prevent costly repairs, extends the life of your door, and ensures safe operation. During a maintenance visit, our technicians lubricate moving parts, check spring tension, inspect cables and rollers, test the auto-reverse safety features, and make any necessary adjustments. If your door gets heavy use or you notice any unusual sounds or movements, more frequent inspections may be beneficial.

Question 2

What are signs that my garage door springs need replacement?

Accepted Answer

Several warning signs indicate your garage door springs may need replacement: the door feels unusually heavy when lifting manually, there's a visible gap in the spring, you hear loud snapping sounds when operating the door, the door opens unevenly or appears crooked, or the door won't stay open on its own. Springs typically last 10,000-15,000 cycles (one cycle = one open and close). Never attempt to replace springs yourself as they're under extreme tension and can cause serious injury. Call our professional team immediately if you notice any of these signs.
