The Importance of Regular Maintenance
Your garage door is a hardworking part of your home, often taken for granted until something goes wrong. But as Terry explains in this video, with just a bit of regular care, you can prevent many common issues.
Tip #1: Lubricate Your Garage Door
Garage doors have numerous moving parts—hinges, rollers, tracks, and springs—all working together to open and close smoothly. Over time, these metal components can create friction, leading to noise, wear, and eventual failure.
Terry’s advice? Think of your garage door like a car: “Just like an automobile, you have annual maintenance to keep it running at its best and to get the longevity out of it. Same thing with the garage door.” By regularly lubricating these parts, you not only reduce noise but also ensure your door operates efficiently for years to come.
