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 unexpected breakdowns, extends the life of your door and opener, and ensures safe operation. During a maintenance visit, our technicians will lubricate moving parts, check spring tension, inspect cables and rollers, test safety features, and make any necessary adjustments. If you use your garage door frequently (more than 4-5 times daily), you may benefit from semi-annual maintenance. Signs that you need service sooner include unusual noises, slow operation, or the door not closing properly.

Question 2

What are the signs that my garage door springs need replacement?

Accepted Answer

Garage door springs typically last 7-10 years or about 10,000 cycles. Key signs that your springs need replacement include: the door feels heavier than usual when opening manually, the door opens unevenly or crooked, you hear loud banging or snapping sounds, visible gaps in the spring coil, the door won't stay open when released, or the opener struggles to lift the door. If a spring breaks, your door may not open at all or could become dangerous. Never attempt to replace springs yourself – they're under extreme tension and require professional handling. Call us immediately if you suspect spring issues for safe, prompt replacement.
