Warning Signs Something Is Wrong With Your Garage Door

Your garage door is an essential part of your home. Used every day, it serves as a shelter, recreational area, extra layer of security, and even an accessory to your homes overall facade. Unfortunately, the wear and tear on this important gadget often gets overlooked. If you want to ensure the warning signs don’t get missed, check out our top indicators that something is wrong with your garage door!

DELAYED OPERATION WHEN USING THE REMOTE

Once you have pressed the button on your garage opener, the door itself should begin opening within a few seconds. If there is a delay – or worse, no response at all – there could be an issue with your garage door. First, change the batteries on the remote. If there is still a delayed response, your garage’s opening mechanism likely needs repair.

THE GARAGE DOOR OPENS VEEEEERY SLOWLY

All things take time…but if your garage door is taking too much time to open, it could indicate the need for repair to the torsion springs. Because of the high tension these springs are under, it’s best to let the pros handle this problem!

YOUR GARAGE DOOR IS MAKING A RUCKUS

Has your garage door suddenly become vocal? While some level of noise is normal, it’s important to keep an ear out for sounds such as squeaking, scraping, and rattling. These noises could mean that some of the various moving parts of your garage door need a tune up. If your garage door is rattling, be sure to have the screws and rollers repaired immediately.

THE GARAGE DOOR IS SAGGING

Little by little, day by day, your garage door relaxes a little more. Until one day, it’s suddenly sagging to one side and you have no idea how it got this far. Sagging garage doors happen gradually, but are often overlooked until they’re obvious! This is typically caused by worn springs or dull tracks. But you should try to have the door checked by a professional before attempting to tighten bolts or other maintenance on your own.

Don’t miss the signs! When it comes to catching problems ahead of time, four eyes are better than two. Hire a professional to help with a garage door inspection, and together we can ensure your garage door is operating smoothly and safely.

I was fully satisfied with Adam Door Systems services. It was started since Dave, the owner willing to come on the weekend to measure, gave advice about the sizes, color matching with our house interior, model and offered a reasonable price; lastly his service men installed the door neat and function properly. Well done. Keep a good work Adam Dood System Inc.

A friend accidentally drove into our garage door during the holidays. Unfortunately there was damage to more than 1 section and the door needed replacing. Adams Doors came and installed a brand new door in 2 days! I was so relieved and would definitely recommend the company. This is the second garage door we have purchased from them over the years. Both were beautiful and worked great, but I really love the completely new look the CHI modern door gives to our home.
