What to Do When Your Garage Door is Not Working Properly

Many homeowners don´t give routine maintenance to their garage door, and they wait until something goes wrong to fix their garage door. If that is your case and your garage door is not working as it should, here is some useful information, so you know what to do when that moment comes.

3 Steps to Follow If Your Garage Needs Maintenance

Make a Quick Inspection

The very first thing you need to do when your garage door is not working correctly is to make a quick inspection to try to identify the problem. Remember that your garage door has many moving parts and trying to understand what is wrong will help you determine if you can fix it with quick lubrication or whether it needs a part replaced or repaired. Make sure to check springs, rollers, tracks, and hinges, and listen if they are making any weird noise or there is a missing part.

Get Professional Help

If you need to replace something or repair any part of your garage door, it is highly recommended that you leave it in the hands of a professional garage door technician to make sure that it is done professionally and you have warranty coverage.

Schedule Regular Maintenance

Once your garage door is fixed, the best decision you can make is to schedule routine maintenance service with your trusted garage door company, keeping it up and running properly. They can also identify minor problems that if not fixed could represent a significant repair or even replacement if not detected on time.
