Professional Maintenance

Regular professional maintenance is essential to identify potential issues before they turn into major problems. At GDR, we offer comprehensive garage door maintenance services tailored to your specific needs. Our technicians will perform a detailed inspection, lubrication, alignment adjustments, and address any necessary repairs, ensuring your garage door operates at its best.
Visual Inspection

Perform a thorough visual inspection of your garage door, tracks, rollers, hinges, and springs. Look for any signs of wear and tear, rust, or damage. Pay attention to frayed cables or loose hardware. If you notice any issues, contact our professionals for prompt repairs.
Lubrication

Proper lubrication is essential for the smooth operation of your garage door. Apply a high-quality lubricant to all moving parts, including hinges, rollers, and tracks. This helps reduce friction and prevents premature wear. Remember to clean off any excess lubricant for optimal performance.
Tighten Loose Hardware

Over time, the vibrations and movements of a garage door can cause nuts, bolts, and screws to become loose. Regularly check and tighten all hardware to ensure the door operates safely and smoothly. However, be cautious not to overtighten, as it can cause unnecessary strain on the components.
Test Safety Features

Garage doors are equipped with safety features such as photo-eye sensors and auto-reverse mechanisms. Regularly test these features to ensure they are functioning correctly. Place an object in the path of the closing door and check if it reverses immediately. If there are any issues, contact our technicians to inspect and adjust the safety features.
