(EstateNewsWire.com, September 21, 2012 ) Sacramento, CA – If one has ever had the rollers on their garage door pop out, causing their garage door to start going up sideways or the top door panel to actually fall down out of the track, causing the door to bind up completely, kicking out the circuit breaker for the opener, one knows the frustration that ensues and the fear of how much it will cost to fix the door if it is damaged. An ounce of prevention could have avoided this scenario.
Most homeowners do not know that there are moving parts on one’s garage door that need regular maintenance to keep them working properly. Unfortunately some garage doors and openers fail because those parts have had no attention since the door was installed new. Cost Less Garage Doors Sacramento recommends having one’s garage door and opener serviced at least twice a year. One should visit their website at http://www.costlessgaragedoors.com/ or call 916-960-8449.
Garage door specialists like those at Cost Less Garage Doors recommend lubricating the rollers, hinges and springs of the garage doors regularly to keep them rust free, especially in salt-air environments. Springs, rollers, cables and hinges can become damaged if they are not regularly lubricated. Once a roller or hinge is damaged, it has to be replaced. If not replaced, damage could be even more extreme if the door hangs up in the opening because of a bad roller. Cables can snap also which may cause the door to drop causing a safety hazard.
Springs likewise need to be maintained to work properly. If one has a garage door with exposed springs and they become too rusted, or if the cables are strained because of a failed roller or hinge, the result could be a broken spring. Springs are wound up very tightly in order to assist in lifting the door when the opener is activated. If a spring is broken, the opener has to do all of the work and eventually the opener will fail and result in an even more costly repair.
A garage door and garage door opener are a pretty substantial investment in any home and should be cared for by a trained garage door Sacramento repairman like the ones at Cost Less Garage Door.
The garage door opener should also be inspected at least once a year to make sure that it is operating properly. If the operator contains metal gears as some of the high-end openers do, they should be lubricated and the limits on the door opener should be checked also. The limits are actually the setting within the opener that tells it when to stop as it goes up and down. If a homeowner accidentally puts the door down on an object like the children’s’ bicycle, the cables on the door will back-wind and the limits will probably have to be reset or the door will come down too far. This will put extra strain on the springs, cables, rollers, etc.
One can see how all the different parts of a garage door affect the other parts. They all have to be working in conjunction with one another. A quick maintenance check by a premier garage door Sacramento company like Cost Less Garage Doors will keep everything working smoothly and add life to one’s door so it can be enjoyed for years to come.
