LITCHFIELD PARK GARAGE DOOR REPAIR, REPLACEMENT

Litchfield Park has some of the unique homes in Arizona. Many have custom-built features such as family rooms attached to their garages, decorative walkways leading up to custom doors, and even water fountains built into the existing architectural scheme. Steel, aluminum, or wood are all options for materials. The garage door is usually crafted of one of these materials. Because garage doors are so large, it’s essential to make sure that they are built correctly and complement the surrounding areas. 

The garage door system consists of three parts: The garage door itself, garage door springs, and garage door openers. Most garage doors today are operated with a garage door opener. Still, they can also be set up with individual push-button controls located outside near the driveway or on the wall inside for convenience.

Both types help homeowners raise their garage doors faster. Over time all garage door systems need to be repaired or replaced at least once in their lifetime. If you have an emergency repair situation like having your garage door down while trying to back, give us a call for emergency service.

Maintenance – How often does it need to be done?

Typically garage door maintenance should be done by a garage door technician once to twice per year. This includes garage door springs because garage doors are heavy and use many moving parts and the garage door opener. Garage door openers tend to need repair more often than garage door springs because of how much they are used – typically every two or three years.

What kind of maintenance is included?

There are several important components that should be inspected during garage-door maintenance service. The garage door hinges (where the panels of the garage meet) should be lubricated to allow for smooth operation while the garage spring system (if there is one) should be toned and balanced as needed; it usually will require having both ends raised and leveled.
