How often should I have my garage door serviced?

We recommend having your garage door professionally inspected and serviced at least once a year. However, if you use your garage door multiple times daily, twice-yearly maintenance is ideal. Regular maintenance includes lubrication of moving parts, spring tension adjustment, track alignment, safety sensor testing, and hardware inspection. This preventive care extends the life of your door, prevents costly breakdowns, and ensures safe operation. Between professional visits, homeowners should perform monthly visual inspections and test safety features.

What are signs that my garage door springs need replacement?

Several signs indicate your garage door springs may need replacement: The door feels unusually heavy when lifting manually, the door doesn't stay open or slams shut, you hear loud squeaking or grinding noises, visible gaps in the spring coils, the door opens unevenly or crookedly, or the door won't open at all. Springs typically last 7-12 years or about 10,000 cycles. Never attempt to replace springs yourself – they're under extreme tension and can cause serious injury. Our certified technicians safely handle all spring replacements and typically complete the job within an hour.

How long does a garage door installation take?

A standard garage door installation typically takes 3-5 hours, depending on the complexity of the job. This includes removing the old door (if applicable), installing the new door panels, setting up the spring system, installing and programming the opener, aligning tracks, testing safety features, and cleaning up. Custom doors or doors with special features may take longer. We always test the door thoroughly before leaving and walk you through operation and maintenance. Most installations are completed in a single visit, and we schedule at times convenient for you.
