Keeping your garage door parts lubricated will prevent strain and potential damage with parts not moving together correctly or getting stuck, much like keeping a bike chain lubricated to keep it in good and safe working order. You can use a spray lubricant for the springs and a solid grease for the joints and openings. It may save you a lot of time and effort to hire a garage door specialist to do the lubrication process for you. As experts in the eld, you are more likely to receive a top quality service that will prevent future problems from occurring. They will use all the right products for your garage door and leave your door working as good as new. Automated or roller garage doors should be tested regularly and we recommend doing this once a month to check it’s safety reversal system. If your garage door opens and closes via a laser beam and sensors on either side of the door then sweep your foot or an object under the garage door as it closes. When you do this the garage door should stop and or reopen. If it doesn’t then you have a problem and you have a safety issue as it could close on you, or your car as you are walking or driving through. Firstly check there are no spider’s webs or unknown species on your sensors by wiping them clean, this normally sorts the problem. Quite often the sensors will ash repeatedly and you will hear a quiet clicking sound if there is a problem with the sensors not working. If wiping them clean doesn’t work then it is likely you will need to call a garage door engineer out to look into it further. If your door is mechanical, put a piece of wood underneath it as it closes and it should touch it and then reopen. If not then it needs a repair, again to ensure it doesn’t close on you or your vehicle. If you have a busy lifestyle, carry out maintenance twice a year might not even be an option for you. Do not forget that your garage door is one of the heaviest pieces of moving equipment in your home and they can be very expensive to replace. It is important that your garage is not neglected so we de nitely recommend contacting a good garage door company who will have the time and skills to carry out a maintenance visit.
