It’s not usual to have a fluke in your garage door here and there. However, if your garage door frequently acts up, you likely need a garage door repair. Additionally, here are the tops signs that indicate that you need garage door repair.
- Won’t Open/Close – One of the more obvious signs that you need a garage door repair is if your garage door won’t open or close. This can be a result of broken cables, your opener isn’t working properly, or there is a stripped gear in your opener. All of these issues require a professional to repair.
- Off its Tracks – Has your garage door been detached off its tracks? This can be dangerous and requires a trained professional to repair. A garage door off its tracks can be caused by a misalignment, a broken lift cable, worn out or broken rollers, or a car hitting the garage door.
- Noisy – Is your garage door noisy and gives you the chills every time you open it? If so, call for a repair service. A noisy garage indicates that there is an issue with one of your garage door components. A repair technician will be able to identify what is causing the noise.
- Slow Response – When you click your garage door opener and it takes a few seconds to respond and open, you may need a garage door repair. First check that your rollers, tracks, and hinges are all lubricated so there’s no sticking when it tries to open, causing the slow response. If everything seems lubricated, contact a professional to explore other issues that could be causing this problem.
