A garage door has a huge impact on your home. It’s
the largest moving part of your home. It’s more than a garage door, though.
It’s also the second front door to your home. It enhances the curb appeal,
energy efficiency, and security for your home. Here, you will find a list of
the most common problems related to garage door repair.
Broken overhead
door springs. If you will try to operate the overhead door without
the assistance of one of the springs using the garage door motor, you may
damage the motor in a way that will require a new garage door motor, since the
garage door will too heavy for the motor to lift, and will eventually stop
working. A spring replacement is not an easy job, and should be performed by a
trained garage door tech, who will know to match the correct spring for your
garage door, and who has the tools which are needed to replace a broken spring.
Overhead
door track maintenance. Check the tracks to make sure that they are level
and properly aligned. A horizontal track should slant down toward the back of
the garage. Tracks are located on each side, and they must be the same height
as the garage door walls. If you find that the tracks are not aligned, loosen
them and tap them back into position. When the tracks are level, screw or bolt
them back into place.
Spring problems.
The springs are the workhorse of your overhead door. Overtime, metal
fatigue can cause them to break. With a broken spring, the door is very
difficult if not impossible to lift. Garage door for this problem would need
professional help in replacements. The quality of the springs can vary and the
difficulty level changes with the type. You may not want to tackle this garage
door repair. But understanding what you will need will allow you to hire a
professional at a reasonable cost.

garage doors actually have many components, especially if they’re hooked up to
an electric opener. Because of this level of complexity—and the fact that a
garage door must stand up against harsh weather—a garage door may suffer from
any of several problems.
