How often should I have my garage door serviced?

We recommend having your garage door professionally serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, extends the life of your door and opener, and ensures safe operation. During a maintenance visit, our technicians will lubricate all moving parts, check spring tension, inspect cables and rollers, test safety features, and make any necessary adjustments. If your door gets heavy use (more than 4 cycles per day) or is exposed to harsh weather conditions, you may benefit from more frequent service every 6 months.

What are the signs that my garage door springs need to be replaced?

There are several warning signs that indicate your garage door springs may need replacement. The most obvious is if you hear a loud bang from your garage – this often means a spring has broken. Other signs include: your door feels unusually heavy when lifting manually, the door won't stay open on its own, there's a visible gap in the spring, the door opens unevenly or crooked, or you notice the door moving more slowly than usual. Garage door springs are under extreme tension and can be dangerous to replace yourself, so always call a professional. Most springs have a lifespan of about 10,000 cycles (one cycle = opening and closing), which typically means 7-12 years of average use.
