QUICK TIPS TO KEEP YOUR GARAGE DOOR HAPPY
If your garage door is still in operating condition, then you can do some maintenance yourself to keep it that way.
Remember these basic garage door maintenance tips:
-
ALWAYS KEEP DEBRIS, TOOLS, CLUTTER, AND SO FORTH AWAY FROM ANY MOVING PARTS OF YOUR GARAGE DOOR. OFTENTIMES, WE ARE CALLED OUT TO A CUSTOMER’S HOME AFTER MOVING HARDWARE BECAME JAMMED AND DAMAGED DUE TO STRAY ITEMS FALLING INTO IT.
-
USING A SPRAY CAN OF INDUSTRIAL LUBRICANT, YOU CAN APPLY LUBRICATION TO THE MOVING PARTS OF YOUR GARAGE DOOR. OVERHEAD SPRINGS AND METAL HINGES WILL LIKELY BENEFIT THE MOST FROM LUBRICATION. WE RECOMMEND YOU LUBRICATE YOUR GARAGE DOOR’S COMPONENTS AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR.
-
TEST YOUR GARAGE DOOR’S SAFETY FEATURES AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR. PLACE A WOODEN BLOCK IN THE PATH OF YOUR GARAGE DOOR AND MAKE IT CLOSE. WHEN THE DOOR TOUCHES THE BLOCK, IT SHOULD DETECT THE RESISTANCE AND REVERSE. NEXT, PUT THE BLOCK IN FRONT OF THE ELECTRONIC SENSOR ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT OF THE GARAGE DOOR. IF THE SENSOR IS WORKING, THEN IT SHOULD NOT LET YOUR GARAGE DOOR CLOSE UNTIL THE BLOCK IS MOVED.
-
LOOK AND LISTEN FOR ABNORMALITIES WHENEVER YOU USE YOUR GARAGE DOOR. STRANGE OR SCREECHING NOISES WHEN YOUR GARAGE DOOR IS IN OPERATION USUALLY INDICATE A WORSENING PROBLEM. IF YOUR GARAGE DOOR IS MADE OF WOOD, CHECK IT AFTER ANY RAINY PERIOD TO SEE IF THE WOOD IS CRACKING AND WARPING.
Of course, if you would rather have a professional inspect and tune-up your garage door, then you can count on ProLift Garage Doors of Denver to do that, too. Our residential garage door maintenance services are performed with the same care and attention-to-detail as our repairs!
