Garage door springs are crucial yet potentially hazardous components of your door. Over time, springs can wear out, typically lasting around 10,000 cycles. At Precision Garage Door of Spartanburg, we prioritize your safety by installing high-quality springs rated for up to 60,000 cycles. Broken springs can lead to injuries, especially with older doors. It’s important to have a professional technician inspect and replace springs if necessary. Even if only one spring is broken, it’s recommended to replace both to prevent further damage and ensure optimal functionality. Please remember that springs are under high tension and should only be adjusted or repaired by a qualified garage door professional.
To ensure your safety, it’s important to visually examine the cables that connect the spring system to the bottom brackets on both sides of your garage door. If you notice any signs of fraying or wear on these cables, they are at risk of breaking, posing a potential injury hazard. Please note that due to the high tension of the springs, it is crucial to have these cables replaced by a trained technician for your own safety.
If you notice that your garage door springs are squeaking or making noise during regular use, it is generally considered normal and does not necessarily indicate a problem. However, if the noise becomes louder over time or causes concern, don’t hesitate to reach out to us. Our team will be happy to inspect your springs and address any potential issues.
If you notice that your garage door does not move up and down smoothly, it could be an indication of an unsafe condition. Even older door systems should operate without any issues. If the awkward operation persists when manually operating the door, it’s possible that your spring system is out of balance. It’s important to address this promptly as it can lead to premature wear and tear on other critical door components and even your garage door opener. Since spring systems are potentially hazardous, it is crucial to have them repaired by trained professionals.
When purchasing a new garage door, it can be tempting for homeowners to try to save money by using the old track. However, it’s important to consider that the compatibility of the old track with the new door may not be suitable. Factors such as the thickness of the sections, the weight of the door, the required headroom, the position of the garage door opener, and other considerations play a crucial role. The track and sections of the garage door work together as a system, and for optimal performance and durability, it is recommended to use the track specifically designed for your new door.
No, it is not recommended for a novice to install a garage door as it can be highly dangerous. The Door and Access Systems Manufacturers Association (DASMA) advises that garage doors should be installed by trained door systems technicians.
Your garage door, being the largest moving part in your home and frequently used, is subject to wear and tear over time, leading to potential safety issues. While regular monthly safety checks and maintenance are important, an annual inspection by a trained door systems technician can ensure the continued safe and smooth operation of your garage door for an extended period.
