How do I apply lubrication?

Lubricants come in different forms. There are spray lubricants and there are those in cans that must be poured on a rag and wiped on the garage door parts. Some people also use household oils, but there are lubricants specifically made for garage doors and such that would work better and more effectively.

What are garage door springs for?

Garage door springs are responsible for controlling the movement of your garage door and absorbing the force as it moves. Without the springs, there would be no controlled movement of the garage door, causing sudden movements and even failure. In time, garage door springs may need to be replaced, as suggested by our experts in Westchester.

Should I purchase an aluminum door?

Aluminum doors offer a variety of advantages. They are not as heavy as other doors. The garage door opener experiences less stress. As a result, you do not have to have as much maintenance performed on them and repairs are a lot less expensive.

Do I really need to get a garage door opener?

While you can get by without one, having one will really free you up some time, most especially when it counts. If you have one, you don't have to get out of your car just to open or close your garage door before going to work. This goes the same for when you're about to pull in at the end of the day. It most certainly is more convenient to only have to press a button to open the door especially when it's raining or snowing.
