Garage Door Repair Service FAQs
A garage door that is stuck open is among the most frequent issues homeowners face with their garage doors. When this occurs, the photo eye sensors that are installed on either side of the garage door should be checked first.
Most garage doors have between 10 and 12 rollers, and if any of them come loose, you can easily see them by quickly inspecting the door visually. Enter your garage and examine the tracks that are mounted on either side of the door while taking care to keep yourself safe. Garage rollers frequently come off the tracks for the following reasons:
- Bent or damaged tracks: can cause rollers to become misaligned.
- Tracks that are loose: The vibration of your door may cause the bolts holding the tracks in place to become loose.
- Force and impacts: If your car rams into your garage door, it could knock the rollers off their tracks.
- Lack of lubrication and dirt in the tracks: unlubricated tracks and accumulated dirt and grime can cause rollers to veer off course.
Fixing a garage door by yourself depends on the issue's complexity. Simple problems like lubricating hinges or realigning sensors can be DIY tasks. However, for major issues like broken springs or motor malfunctions, it's advisable to consult a professional for safety reasons. DIY attempts without proper knowledge may lead to injuries or further damage. Always prioritize safety and consider hiring a professional for complex garage door repairs.
A garage door stopping in the middle may be due to various issues. Common causes include misaligned or obstructed sensors, worn-out rollers or tracks, damaged cables, or a malfunctioning opener. Additionally, electrical problems, such as issues with the motor or wiring, can also lead to interruptions. Regular maintenance, sensor realignment, and addressing visible wear can often resolve these issues. If problems persist, seeking professional assistance is recommended for a thorough inspection and repair.
Routine garage door maintenance involves several tasks. Inspect and lubricate moving parts like rollers, hinges, and springs to ensure smooth operation. Tighten bolts and screws, and check for wear and tear on cables. Examine the tracks for alignment, and clear debris regularly. Test the door balance and adjust the tension if necessary. Inspect the weatherstripping for damage. Keep the photoelectric sensors clean and aligned. Regularly test the auto-reverse feature for safety. Overall, proactive inspection and minor adjustments can prevent larger issues and ensure the garage door's optimal functioning.
