Tips

The repair experts give you garage door tips

How to increase the durability of the structure.

Installing openers by yourself

Choosing to install a garage door opener by yourself can be a good idea because it is easier, safer and more cost-efficient. However, you should be aware that improper installation can potentially harm everyone nearby. If you still intend to do it yourself, please follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully, or have someone trained do it for you.

Don’t forget the reinforcement bracket

It is highly important to use a reinforcement bracket every time you install a new garage door opener. Your door could suffer heavy damage if there isn’t one in place. Be sure to place it on the top side of the door before you begin installing.

Garage doors as storage tools

It is possible to use any surface of the installation as a storage space. You can adjust some shelves at the top of the door. This is meant to ensure that you maximize the use of your space. At the same time do not add extra burdens.

Make sure rollers fit in tracks

When you replace either the garage door rollers or the tracks, make sure they're perfect for each other. There's a reason why there're different size parts according to our specialists in Placentia. Choose based on the weight of the door and ensure rollers fit in tracks.

Failure of garage door motor

If the motor continues to run, even after the garage door has been completely opened and closed, then it is time to check the limit switch. A technician from Garage door repair Placentia will be able to find an effective solution for this. He may adjust the switch at the track or at the rear of the opener. Run the opener again, to check if it is working properly.
