Call now for a full inspection and maintenance of your garage door.
Most homeowners wait to contact a garage door service company until they have issues that are preventing their door from working properly.
It’s actually really important to reach out to those professionals for routine maintenance. These quick preventative appointments can save you a lot of time and money in the long run.
Garage door maintenance can be used to catch small issues with your door before they cause a major issue. This is also necessary if you want to ensure your garage door is safe and secure.
There are a lot of maintenance tasks that go into taking care of your home. It’s easy to skip these things, but then you could be compromising the condition of your home.
When it comes to your garage door maintenance, you must be keeping up on service from a reputable professional in your area.
After all, your garage door not only affects the curb appeal of your home but also provides security as well.
A garage door maintenance expert will take a look at all of the different features of your door to confirm that parts are structurally intact, that nothing needs to be replaced, and that certain maintenance will be addressed like lubrication of tracks.
A lot of times this will eliminate the risk of having to call for an emergency appointment because your garage door has malfunctioned.
There is a list that your garage door maintenance technician will follow during your appointment.
Let’s take a look at some of the things that are addressed.
The door and all of its parts will be inspected for issues or damage. This could include physical damage that affects the integrity of your garage door.
There may also be issues with the track, springs, or even your garage door opener that are visible during a quick scan of your door and equipment.
Something like rust may not seem like a big deal, but it can often provide a snapshot of the lifespan of your garage door.
All of the nuts and bolts that are holding your garage door in place and keeping the various parts in motion will be checked to see if they are nice and tight.
This isn’t something that takes long for a professional to take care of, but something this simple can prevent a breakdown later on.
Checking all of the bearings on the rollers and the garage door will confirm that the door is working properly and is not a danger when it is opening or closing.
There is weather sealing around your garage door that is used to keep moisture out of your garage.
This is also an important part of keeping bugs and other critters out of your garage and home. The weather seal naturally breaks down over time, and it must be replaced periodically.
Most people utilize a garage door opener to maneuver their door open and closed. Without one, you would have to physically move your door up and down, locking it in place each time.
If you have a garage door opener already installed, a garage door maintenance inspection will determine if the opener needs anything done to it.
If you’ve been having any issues with the door opening and closing on demand, this is the time to mention the problem.
Your garage door needs to be perfectly balanced and aligned in order to keep it in place and ensure it’s moving up and down safely.
You’ve probably seen a garage door in your neighborhood that looked crooked even when it was closed, allowing a little gap to exist on one side of the door.
This is an alignment issue that can quickly be addressed by your technician.
There are springs on your garage door that help hold it open or closed, and these springs can get pretty worn out over time.
If a spring were to break, it could cause your door to be forced open or shut. You could also be in harm’s way if a spring breaks and shoot across your garage.
Tracks should be structurally sound, but they should also be cleaned and lubricated to allow the door to open and close smoothly.
This garage door maintenance task also promotes a quiet garage door. There’s nothing worse than a door that squeaks as it moves.
If your technician notices at any point during the inspection of your garage door that there is a part that looks worn out or damaged, that part can quickly be replaced.
Most technicians carry common parts in their vehicle, so you don’t have to wait for the maintenance to be performed.
If your garage door is very old or it’s not a commonly used door, you may need to wait for the part to arrive before it can be replaced.
However, it’s much easier to have this part taken care of now before it’s causing major issues.
Responding quickly to your calls is our goal. The arrival time in most cases is between twenty and thirty minutes.
