Here are some helpful tips and tricks to help you with Build a Garage, Install, Repair Garage Door

  • To protect the finish of a garage door, apply car wax. This will help repel dirt and moisture.
  • Doors equipped with automatic door operators can cause serious injury or death if not properly adjusted and operated. To ensure safe operation of these doors, test the sensitivity of the operator's safety reverse mechanism once a month.
  • All screws and nuts on bolts should be tightened every six months. Make sure that the slide lock does not extend past the end stile of the door when it is in unlocked positioned.
  • If the door is difficult to open but falls closed, or if the door is difficult to keep closed, contact an authorized dealer to make the proper adjustments. Springs are under considerable tension. Do not attempt to make any adjustments yourself.
  • In order to prevent damage such as rusting, which is caused by foreign matter adhering to the door, the garage door should be wiped down with a soft cloth twice a year. Use a mild household detergent that has been diluted with water.
  • Each door panel has a set of rollers set into the side tracks. With the door closed, examine each roller and the attachment screws for damage or unusual wear. Rollers are available at home stores and can be replaced without removing the door or track.
  • Most openers have a closing-force adjustment screw or knob on the main motor housing. When adjusting it, make sure the door will close all the way without reversing. If the door cannot be adjusted, it's time for a new door opener.
