Garage doors are almost certainly used on a daily basis. You leave for work, it’s used. You come back home and park your car, it’s used. Your garage doors, too, get worn out of constant opening and closing.
How do you determine what problems your garage door needs for fixing or maintaining? Following an inspection and maintenance routine could keep your garage doors operating in the long run. Here are a couple of practices you can perform on your garage doors:
- Make sure the garage door rollers and tracks are in good shape. You should begin by brushing the rollers and tracks, and by lubricating the rollers and axles. You should replace rollers that aren’t functioning smoothly if their bearings wear out.
- Tighten the hardware. Tracks, which guide rollers on an overhead garage door, are mounted to the garage with brackets and are assembled in sections. Ascertain that the brackets and screws are properly secured and that the screws and bolts are tight.
- Check the cables and pulleys. A spiral-operated garage door’s cables and pulleys will eventually wear out. Damaged pulleys and ripped cables should be replaced.
- Test the door balance. To move a garage door, you should be able to apply only a few pounds of pressure. In case the springs wear out and lose their resilience, a power garage door opener might have to work harder to lift the door. Over time, this can severely damage the motor. Spring replacement is usually the best solution.
- The door opener’s autoreverse needs to be tested. In the event of an obstacle on the way down to the floor, garage door openers are designed to reverse and raise the door. The heavy door poses a safety hazard if this feature is no longer functional. The door opener should be repaired or replaced if this malfunctions.
But, how do you do all these on your own? Were you overwhelmed with what you just read and have no idea how to perform them? Don’t worry! You don’t have to bother learning about these technical procedures to deal with your garage doors. Doors of Pontiac will do the job for you.

“Harold had me up and running again within a few minutes of his visit. He showed up within the first 10 minutes of the 1-hour appointment window.

In and out and everything is working again and he said there is a 30 warranty on their work.” – Kel “KZ” Z
“Estimate for replacing two wood doors on an exterior shed was done as agreed-no delays & price was reasonable considering all the shortages of materials/higher prices. They even delivered the doors (no extra charge) the week before the scheduled installation so I could get them painted before they were hung. Installation date as scheduled with no delay. The job was done expertly. Doors had to be cut to fit on site. Bob and Erin did an excellent job. Very pleased.” – Karen2 ODonnell
