Signs your garage door needs a service
If your door is becoming louder, slower, heavier or less reliable, it is worth having it checked.
- Door feels unusually heavy when opened manually
- Door shudders, sticks or moves unevenly
- Motor sounds strained or noisy
- Door no longer closes evenly or flush to the floor
- Remote operation is intermittent
- Rollers, hinges or tracks are visibly worn
- Door has not been serviced for several years
Coastal homes can need extra attention
Homes around the Hibiscus Coast, Omaha, Snells Beach and other coastal areas can experience additional exposure to moisture and salt air. Springs, cables, steel hardware and electronic components can all be affected over time.
If you live near the coast or use your garage door several times every day, regular inspection is a sensible way to catch wear early.
Safety first: Do not attempt to adjust garage door springs or tensioned cables yourself. These components can store significant energy. Have repairs and adjustments carried out by an experienced garage door technician.
Maintenance for automatic garage doors
Automatic garage doors have both mechanical and electrical components that need to work together correctly. A door that is out of balance can place extra load on the opener and contribute to premature wear.
During a service, the opener, door movement, travel and safety operation can be checked, along with common wear points such as rollers, hinges, springs, cables and brackets.
Garage Door Motors & RemotesRepair rather than replace when practical
Not every garage door problem requires a new door or complete motor replacement. Depending on the condition of the system, a worn spring, cable, roller, hinge, gear or other component may be all that needs attention.
Rodney Garage Door Services carries a range of garage door parts and can advise whether repair or replacement makes the most sense.
