Call 385-534-5450
Monthly: observe and record
Take a few minutes to notice the door’s appearance and normal operation from a safe distance. Record new noise, shaking, uneven movement, or trouble closing. Perform the safety checks described in your opener manual. If a safety feature fails, stop automatic operation and arrange service instead of bypassing it.
Seasonally: check the opening and seals
Look for leaves, dirt, and stored items around the doorway and sensor area. Observe whether the bottom seal is torn or daylight appears around the closed door. After a storm or accidental impact, look for visible damage before using the opener. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning the finish and caring for the seals.
Annually: review the system with a professional
Arrange a professional inspection based on the manufacturer’s recommendations and your household’s usage. Bring the previous service record so recurring issues can be compared. Ask about moving hardware, door balance, weather sealing, and opener operation. Set the next reminder before the appointment ends.
Any time: respond to a change
Do not wait for the next calendar reminder if a cable comes loose, a panel bends, a spring breaks, or the door becomes crooked. An urgent symptom takes priority over the maintenance schedule. Call with the door’s current position and whether another entrance is available.
Frequently asked questions
Does a rarely used door still need attention?
Yes. Follow the manual and inspect for deterioration or damage even when the garage is used infrequently.
Should every part be lubricated?
No. Approved products and lubrication points vary by component and manufacturer. Do not assume belts, plastic parts, and every track surface need oil.
Can I postpone service until the annual visit?
Not when operation changes or damage is visible. Describe the symptom and request advice about scheduling.
