Signs you may need garage door maintenance
- The door is louder than it used to be, or shudders at one point in its travel.
- The opener strains on the way up — a sign the springs are no longer carrying the door’s weight.
- It has been more than a year since anything on the door was lubricated or adjusted.
- Rust on the springs, frayed strands on a cable, or a roller that wobbles.
- The door does not stay put when you lift it halfway by hand with the opener disconnected.
What causes this problem?
A tune-up is the visit that prevents the emergency call. We lubricate the springs, hinges, rollers and bearings; run a balance test with the opener disconnected (a balanced door stays put half-open — if it drops or rises, the springs are tired); inspect every hinge, bracket and roller; look at spring wear and cable strands; and test the opener’s photo-eye and auto-reverse. Anything that is about to fail gets named in writing so you can decide before it fails at 7 a.m. on a work day.

What homeowners should know
The one thing we ask homeowners not to do themselves is touch the springs or the cables — both are under enough tension to cause serious injury. Lubricating hinges and rollers with a garage-door lubricant (not WD-40) and testing the auto-reverse monthly are safe and worthwhile.
Connecticut conditions that affect this service
A fall tune-up matters in Connecticut: cold stiffens grease and contracts steel, so a door that was marginal in October is the one that fails in January. Salt-air homes on the Shoreline and detached, unheated garages inland get the most out of an annual visit.
