How often should I have my garage door serviced?

We recommend having your garage door professionally inspected and serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance can prevent costly repairs and extend the life of your door. During a maintenance visit, our technicians will lubricate all moving parts, check the balance and alignment, inspect springs and cables for wear, test safety features, and make any necessary adjustments. If you use your garage door frequently or notice any issues like unusual noises or slow operation, you may want to schedule service more often.

How long does a garage door installation typically take?

A standard garage door installation typically takes 3-5 hours to complete. This includes removing the old door (if applicable), installing the new door and hardware, setting up the opener, and testing all safety features. More complex installations, such as custom doors or those requiring additional structural work, may take longer. Our technicians will provide you with a time estimate during your consultation. We always ensure the job is done right, regardless of how long it takes.

What should I do if my garage door won't open or close?

If your garage door won't operate, first check if the opener is receiving power and the remote batteries are fresh. Look for any visible obstructions in the door's path and ensure the safety sensors are aligned (they should have solid lights). If the door operates manually but not with the opener, the issue is likely electrical. If it won't move at all, there may be a broken spring or cable. For safety reasons, we recommend not attempting to force the door or repair springs yourself—call our professional team for a safe diagnosis and repair.
