Belt drive garage door openers are the most consistent and durable garage door openers on the market. Their operation is directed by a rubber belt. Consequently, it’s a virtually noiseless, which makes it an excellent choice for homes with bedrooms that sit over or next to the garage.

A screw-drive garage door openers utilize a steel threaded screw that directly connects to the motor. This allows it to deliver an optimal amount of power to lift the heaviest doors while simultaneously being proficient and smooth. Their effectiveness is enhanced because no force is wasted with friction; unlike the belt and chain drive openers. They have fewer parts, as well. This allows them to have lower noise emissions.

Garage door sensors, or photo-eyes, are the little components that flank your garage door and sit just above ground-level. They control the safety reverse motion of your garage door, and prevent your garage door from slamming into property, people, and pets. Photo-eyes project light beams. When the beam is tripped the garage door instantly stops and returns to an open position.

To keep your photo-eyes in good working condition it is important keep them clean. Filthy sensors can hinder the safety operations of your garage door. Dirt and grime can be the difference between whether people are safe around your garage door or not.

There is a simple activity homeowners can do to make sure your sensors are sparkling. First wipe down the lenses of your photo-eyes with a clean cloth. Remove any cobwebs or other debris. Next, raise and lower your garage door using either your remote or the opener console on your garage wall. Make sure your garage door is running properly by cycling your garage door through its open and close positions several times.

If you’re having difficulties after giving your sensors a bath, you might have other problems. When the photo-eyes are broken, everything and everyone that comes close to the garage door is in danger. For that reason it’s critical to consult with a certified garage door mechanic when you’re having complications.

You should never delay the maintenance of your garage door rollers to save money. That’s because you could be forsaking the safety of you and your family in the process. Neglected garage door rollers can lead to your garage door going off its track or stop it from working all together.

Rollers play a significant role in the function of garage doors. They help the door open and close by sliding along a track. Rollers normally stop working due to a collision or some other accident. Overuse can also wear down rollers.

If you overlook small hitches your roller issues can mount and get out of control. Overtime a simple maintenance job can turn into major repair work. For instance, if you don’t replace bent or crushed rollers eventually they will dislodge or get twisted in the track. If enough rollers are damaged your garage door will open and close with a jerky movement or stop working all together.

Garage doors are the biggest, most expensive appliances in most homes. It’s important to be as informed about your garage door as possible when seeking repair or installation services. Below are frequently asked questions we hear from customers.

1. How do garage doors work? Garage doors use a dead weight to function. This weight needs to be counterbalanced so that the garage door can be raised and lowered with little or no force. Most garage doors use extension springs or torsion springs to achieve this. Depending on the design and material of a garage door, the dead weight it uses can be 180 - 400 pounds.

2. What’s the average size of a residential garage door? Garage doors are designed to fit precisely over the opening of a garage. With that said, the average single car garage door is usually 8' x 7’ (that’s eight feet wide by seven foot tall). A normal two car garage door is 16'x7'.

3. How long do garage door springs last? There are two major types of garage door springs – torsion springs and extension springs. Torsion springs are long, heavy, and tightly coiled. They have a life expectancy of at least 10,000-15,000 “cycles.” Any open and close motion constitutes as a cycle. Extension springs last around 15,000 cycles. Extension springs are mainly used on lighter, smaller doors.

Weather change can affect springs, and for that reason it’s important to get tune-ups by certified mechanics if your area experiences dramatic shifts in temperatures or the elements. If your garage door is damaged it can be re-balanced, which can help improve its performance and longevity.
