Premium Garage Door fixes and installs garage doors in Maplewood and the surrounding areas, and we have a few easy spring cleaning tips to help get your garage doors in tip-top shape by summer.

Perform Some Simple Tests

Start by opening and closing your garage doors. Listen to them closely. Do they sound normal to you are they making some unusual noises? If you hear anything that is odd, call our experts at Premium Garage Door Service Inc., and we can come out and take a look at your garage doors to make sure they are still running safely and smoothly.

Next, test your garage doors to ensure they are properly balanced. You can do this by disconnecting the opener by pulling the release handle. Then, move the door halfway up by hand. See if the door stays where you put it. If it doesn’t stay in place, then call us for help. Balancing your garage doors and getting them back on track is a job for the professionals and is definitely not a DIY project.

Give them a Once-Over

The best thing you can do is take a look at your garage doors on a regular basis. Make sure there are no missing parts or any needed repairs or replacements. Tighten up any loose nuts and bolts. If you see anything that does not look right, call in a company that specializes in garage doors, like Premium Garage Door Service.

Check all of the garage door cables and look for signs of wear and tear. If you spot anything, give us a call. We can come out and take a look at them and make any repairs that are necessary.

Check Their Lubrication

Make sure your garage doors are properly lubricated. This is an important part of ensuring your garage doors are safe and functioning for the months ahead. Garage doors can get expensive to replace, so making sure yours stay in good shape can help save you time, money and hassle in the long run.

If you see anything that does not look right, do not hesitate to call us. We will come to your home or business and look at your garage doors to ensure they are working as they should be.
