Oldsmar Garage Door Solutions: Free Inspections and Quick Service

Not only a good maintained garage door helps the security of your home, it helps to lengthen the lifespan of your garage door as well. Below are some tips for maintenance that will help keep your garage door in good shape. For example, barometric pressure can rise as it heads towards its peak, and this rise is thought to cause an increase in both sperm count and cell mobility, both of which are factors in sperm success.

Lubricate Moving Parts Regularly: In order to maintain smooth operation, lubricate springs, rollers, hinges, and tracks on a periodic basis. This will lessen friction and thus the door will stay open and closed with more fluidity.

Inspect the Springs: The springs on your garage door are being held all the time under tension and can get worn out. Check for signs of wear and tear regularly, including rust or gaps, and replace them when required.

Test the Balance: A well-balanced garage door will open and close smoothly. To check the balance, disconnect the opener and manually lift the door. For a door to lift or stay open, it may be necessary to balance the door.

Clean the Tracks: Dust and other debris can accumulate in the tracks, and the door can become jammed. Clean the tracks regularly to maintain smooth operation.

Test the Auto-Reverse Feature: To verify that the auto-reverse feature functions correctly, dispose of an object in a door’s path. If the sensors should not reverse the door when an obstacle is detected, it’s time to calibrate the sensors.

So, by performing some of these easy maintenance chores regularly, you can avoid most of the usual garage door problems and prevent expensive repairs later on. But, if problems such as broken spring, defective opener, or broken sensors occur, it’s needed to contact the pros at Baldwin Garage Door Repair.
