Garage Door FAQs
Replacing a garage door is not a simple DIY task and usually requires professional installation. Garage doors are large and heavy, requiring specialized tools and knowledge to ensure proper installation and alignment. Additionally, garage doors have many moving parts, including springs and cables, that can be dangerous to work with if not handled correctly. Hiring a professional garage door installer is recommended to ensure the new door is installed safely, functions correctly, and provides reliable security for your home.
Yes, insulated garage doors can make a significant difference. They help regulate the temperature inside the garage, keeping it cooler in hot weather and warmer in cold weather. This can lead to energy savings by reducing the need for heating or cooling in adjacent living spaces. Insulated doors also provide better soundproofing, reducing noise from outside. Additionally, they can help protect stored items in the garage from extreme temperatures. While insulated garage doors may cost more initially, the energy efficiency and comfort benefits often make them a worthwhile investment.
To troubleshoot common garage door problems like a door that won’t open:
- Check the Remote: Ensure the batteries are working and the remote is paired with the opener.
- Inspect the Power Supply: Verify that the garage door opener is plugged in and functional.
- Examine the Tracks: Look for obstructions or damage in the tracks.
- Inspect the Springs: Check if the springs are broken or stretched.
- Ensure the Sensors: Make sure the safety sensors are aligned and clean.
You should have your garage door serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance helps ensure the door's smooth operation and identifies potential issues before they become major problems. During a service, a technician will inspect and lubricate moving parts, check the springs, cables, and opener, and adjust the alignment if needed. Regular servicing can extend the lifespan of your garage door and improve its overall performance and safety.
