Learn how to inspect garage door parts and how to choose the best repair parts and openers
Why parts must be cleaned before lubrication?
Lubricants attract dust and over time this mixture becomes a nasty blend of old oil residues, grime and dirt. Good cleaning will allow the garage door parts to be lubricated well. Otherwise, the movement of the parts won't be as smooth as expected and after a while you'll have a hard time cleaning it well.
Should I get a carriage door?
The typical carriage garage door was swing hung type and made of wood. You can still find similar ones on the market but also carriage doors that look like the traditional ones but are made of other materials and open differently. These doors are usually heavy and so you must check the capacities of springs, too.
Why should I opt for an insulated garage door?
If the door’s opening is quite large, our specialists in Garage Door Repair Harrington Park recommend the use of an insulated door. Installing an insulated door can help reduce the transfer of cold air or heat into your garage. This can decrease the transfer of air from the outside to the inside of your home.
