The simplest method to prevent any of the following issues with your garage door is to get it maintained once a year; maintaining your door is less expensive than having to repair or replace it if you wait until it breaks.
Here are a few of the most typical problems that you could run into with your garage door.
The door doesn’t close. The safety sensors on automatic doors are highly sensitive. Anything in the door’s path will stop the door from closing if it is present.
Unusual noises Your door can start generating grinding noises after prolonged use. It can mean there is a problem with the bearings. Applying generous amounts of WD40 should help, but if the noise persists, call an engineer.
If your door opens and closes on its own, there can be a problem with the circuit board of the door. If this occurs, start by replacing the remote’s batteries; but, if the issue persists, you’ll need to contact a professional.
