Does your home’s garage door experience heavy use? Frequent opening and closing will eventually cause the springs, rollers and other system components to wear out. The opener unit could also fail, posing a safety risk and disrupting the automated opening and closing process that most of us take for granted.
An annual garage door tune-up and inspection performed by a professional technician is the best way to ensure your door functions correctly. It will also reduce the risk of costly repairs and safety issues that could cause serious injuries, giving you peace of mind.
