You know you need garage door replacement when…
Your garage door having trouble opening and closing.
When your garage door isn’t opening and closing properly, this is a definite sign your garage door could need repair or even garage door replacement. It could also be an issue with the lubrication or garage door opener. We can come out and check on that if need be as well. If that is not the case and the grease is as it should be, then it is probably a result of the garage door brackets becoming misaligned. Doors that will not open or close properly could also be because of problems with the electrical wires or sensors. The only way to know for sure is to give our garage door company a call.
A storm caused your garage door to bend.
Summer brings storms. Hail can cause significant damage easily visible. But, a strong wind from a storm can also cause your garage door to bend or go off the track and is a little less obvious. This could require garage door replacement to fix. Or, storm-proofing your garage and garage doors when you know there is bad weather on the way could be the difference between major and minor damage. You can brace the doors with a heavy-duty brace, which will add another level of support to the middle of the garage doors.
Your door has loose screws or faulty hardware.
Sometimes this could point to more serious issues. Garage doors go through a lot over the years, so it’s important to check on the hardware every so often. Check the bolts and hinges to ensure they are still properly attached and haven’t gotten loose over the years. Garage door repair experts like those here at Garage Door Services can pinpoint any hardware issues and recommend any necessary repairs or garage door replacement.
