Regular garage door repairs are part of garage door
maintenance. Neglecting them can come back to haunt you. Garage door
maintenance should occur every month. Regular garage door repair can cost a lot of money. It is better to reduce garage
door repair costs by handling minor repair issues by yourself.
1. Lubricate moving parts regularly to ensure friction free
operation. Use garage door lubricating oil which is recommended by garage door repair professionals. Do not
use cheap oils for lubrication as they attract dust.
2. The tracks on which a garage door moves should be kept
free from debris and dirt. The rollers and hinges should also be kept clean and
lubricated.
3. Tighten nuts and bolts to avoid a noisy garage door.
4. Insulate your garage door to make sure that it withstands
any climatic conditions.
5. If garage door sensors are not working, check whether
they are out of alignment or obstructed by dirt and moisture.
6. If you notice any dents on garage door panels, clear them
by gently hitting them with light hammer.
If you notice any severe problems with garage door springs, cables
and garage door openers it is better to call a professional
garage door repair service. This is because parts like garage door springs
are very dangerous to deal with and may cause severe injuries if not handled
properly.

I like your tip to keep the moving parts of your garage door opener lubricated. My garage door hasn't been working well and my husband wants to try and repair it. We may need to call a professional if we can't get the opener to work on our own. It seems like maintaining the garage door and opener would be a lot less expensive than repairs. http://kjsgaragedoorrepair.com/more-information.html
ReplyDeleteI think it's important to lubricate moving parts, just like you said. It seems tedious, but you'll thank yourself in the long run. That's a unit that you don't want to replace often! Even just doing it once a year or so is probably enough. Thanks for sharing your tips with us! http://www.crawforddoornv.com/
