FAQ on Garage Doors
Why should I buy an insulated garage door?
The most important reasons to purchase an insulated door is energy efficiency. It is also an important consideration if there are living areas near or around the garage that require temperature regulation.
Is there any maintenance I should perform
- Inspect the cables that connect the spring system to the brackets at the bottom of each side of your garage door. If these cables are worn, rusty or frayed they could break and cause possible injury. *Because of risk regarding high spring tension, cables should only be replaced by a professional garage technician.
- Inspect the springs by operating your door manually and checking your spring to see if it’s handling the door’s weight correctly.
- A noisy door can be a sign of oncoming trouble so inspect the track and rollers first. If the tracks are warped or the bearings are worn they may cause your opener to rewind. Lubricating your rollers can help, if not, however, they’ll need to be replaced to prevent your opener from getting damaged.
- Lubricate by applying silicone with Teflon (in the form of a lubricating spray) to the springs, rollers, drums, hinges, track, chain and belt once every 6 months. *Avoid using heavy grease as it hardens and collects dirt and grass making any issues with your garage door or opener worse. Also, be sure to remove any old grease before applying fresh lubricant.
If my garage door has 2 springs and one break, should I replace both?
Important note: door springs always need to be replaced as a set! While the purpose may not be so obvious to the novice, it does make sense. Once one spring is broken the other one is probably not far behind especially considering how springs weaken with continued use. Combining a new spring with an older one will likely cause an imbalance in your door’s operation. If you own 2 separate garage doors and only one spring has broken, it’s strongly recommended to replace the springs on each door if their springs are around the same age. Depending on your door’s position, when a spring breaks it can cause serious injury as well as damage your opener.
My garage door is making noise, having trouble working or is too heavy. What can I do?
A garage door should be easy for a child of 10 years to lift without any trouble. If it isn’t, you have worn-out springs. This can damage your opener or even result in a spring breaking unexpectedly and causing a serious injury. Don’t attempt any repairs or adjustments, this should be handled by professionals only.
A garage door should always operate smoothly and quietly regardless of its age. Perform regular lubrication and inspection of the cables, rollers and tracks. If any component is in poor condition, it can and will damage your door and opener because each part of the door and its opener are interdependent on each other and should never struggle during operation.
Is it possible for me to change the broken springs or cable on my own
Torsion springs are under high tension and necessitate the use of a special adjustment tool. Because of this high tension any component involved with the counterbalance system, including the torsion spring, must be handled by professional technicians only. Such components are, the cable, the spring, the cable drums, the corner brackets connected to the cables and the tension spring shaft’s center bearing brackets.
