Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my garage door making loud noises?

A noisy garage door could mean:
• Loose or worn-out hardware
• Lack of lubrication on hinges, rollers, and springs
• A failing garage door opener
• Misaligned tracks or damaged rollers

Regular maintenance can prevent noise issues. Let us inspect and tune up your garage door!

How often should I maintain my garage door?

For smooth operation, we recommend:
• Lubricating moving parts every 6 months
• Checking springs and cables for wear
• Cleaning and aligning safety sensors
• Scheduling a professional tune-up once a year

Our maintenance services keep your garage door running safely and efficiently.

What should I do if my garage door spring breaks?

Do not attempt to repair or replace springs yourself! They are under high tension and can cause serious injury. Instead:
1. Stop using the garage door.
2. Call a professional immediately.
3. Avoid trying to manually lift the door—it could be extremely heavy.

We offer same-day spring replacement to get your door working again fast!

Can I replace just one panel instead of the whole garage door?

Yes, if only one panel is damaged, we may be able to replace just that section. However, availability depends on the door’s brand and color. If multiple panels are damaged, a full door replacement might be more cost-effective.

Why does my garage door reverse when closing?

If your garage door goes back up instead of closing, it could be due to:
• Dirty or misaligned safety sensors
• An obstruction in the door’s path
• A problem with the opener’s force settings

Try cleaning the sensors and checking for obstacles. If the problem continues, we can fix it for you.

How long do garage door springs last?

Most torsion springs last 7-10 years (or about 10,000 cycles). If you open and close your garage door frequently, they may wear out faster.

We offer high-cycle spring replacements for longer-lasting performance.

Should I repair or replace my garage door opener?

Consider replacing your opener if:
• It’s over 10-15 years old
• It struggles to lift the door or makes unusual noises
• It lacks modern safety features like rolling code security and battery backup

We install high-quality, smart garage door openers with Wi-Fi connectivity and quiet operation.

Can I install a garage door myself?

Installing a garage door is a complex process that requires precision, heavy lifting, and safety precautions. A DIY installation can lead to:
• Improper alignment, causing premature wear
• Safety risks from high-tension springs
• Potential voiding of the manufacturer’s warranty

For a hassle-free and safe installation, trust our expert technicians!
