Garage Door and Motor Repairs and Installations

Garage Door Repairs

• Springs: Your garage door runs on either an extension spring or torsion spring system. Both spring systems should counterbalance the garage door's weight. More about springs.
• Safety Cables and Operating 'Lift' Cables may look similar but they serve different purposes. Once a cable breaks on one side, the other must be replaced as well. More about cables. 
• Cast Iron Garage Door Pulleys are preferred because they are resistant to splitting and causing damage to the cables. More about pulleys.
• Nylon garage door rollers are far superior because they absorb vibration allowing for a quieter and smoother operation. More about rollers.
• Hinges / Brackets need routine maintenance just as much as the the other moving parts. Garage door hinges and brackets can come lose and start to make noise.
• Damaged garage door section caused by a bad installation or a forceful hit can pull the entire system apart. A bad installation can lead to a bowed section especially at the top if a strut was not used when operated by a garage door motor.
  
• Garage door weather seal or rubber serves to keep out critters, rain water, and close any gaps between the frame and the door.

Garage Door Motor Repairs

• Logic board replacements are a last resort before buying another motor. When all the troubleshooting your remotes, wall button, and keypads have failed, replacing the logic board is the next step.
  
• Operator Brackets connect the motor's rail arm to the center of the top of the garage door section. If not installed, the arm may get ripped off and cause damage to the garage door section.
• Keypads may need a new battery from time to time or the numbers you have most used in your code may have worn out.
• Remotes also may need a new battery. Sometimes they also need to be reset. Read your owner's manual for easy step by step instructions.
• Wall Buttons are the only accessory wired to the motor (other and the safety sensors). If you need to hold the button down to close the door, your sensors may need adjustments.
• Safety Sensors have been a mandated feature since 1992. they must be installed about 6 inches from the ground in order to be compliant with industry standards. 
• Gear and sprocket malfunction is easier to spot. If your garage door motor makes noise but doesn't go anywhere, they may need replacing.
• LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Craftsman, and Genie Garage Door Motors is what we do!
