Garage Door Repair

Common Garage Door Repair Problems:

There are many cases when you may need to perform a garage door repair. Some of these include:

1. Noisy Garage Door

Noisy garage doors stand out as one of the many repair requests we receive here at DC Garage Doors. This issue can cause all kinds of problems, especially when your bedroom is closer to the garage. We usually perform routine maintenance tasks and replace necessary parts to fix the noisy garage door. In other cases, the problem results from faulty hinges. You can rely on our experts to perform a detailed analysis to determine the cause of your noisy garage door and recommend the appropriate solution.

2. Broken Garage Door Glass

If your garage door is made out of glass, there is a chance you may need repair services targeting the broken glass. That’s because the yard has a beehive of activities, and sometimes your family members may accidentally crack the glass. You must repair broken glass in the shortest time possible. Not only does it change the aesthetics of your garage, but it can also invite most insects and birds to make a home inside your garage. This also introduces significant security issues.

3. Frozen Garage Door

Due to the nature of its purpose, your garage door is constantly impacted by changing environmental factors. Thus, extremely cold days can ruin the door and make it difficult to open or close it. The frozen door could accumulate moisture and cold to a point where it does not move easily. Feel free to call us any time of the day or night to repair your frozen garage door.

4. Worn-Out Garage Door

Garage doors are designed to last for a long if properly maintained. However, when neglected, they can fail within a short time and would need repair. Repairing a worn-out garage is not necessarily easy, but experts understand what is needed to get your garage back in good shape. We can evaluate the door’s current status to accurately determine whether the repair would be enough or you have to get a new door.

5. Worn-Out Springs

Garage doors operate based on meticulously placed torsion springs or extension springs connected to pulleys and cables. The springs help with the seamless lowering and raising of the door by offering counterforce to the garage door. When faulty, it becomes difficult to easily open your garage door, and it will feel heavier. Repairing worn-out springs requires professionals like DC Garage Door to handle the job. This is not something you can do alone because of the significant risk of injury. Remember that these springs are normally under a lot of pressure and require the kind of experience that we have to safely repair them.

8. Rollers Repair/Replacement 

Rollers come in handy when opening and closing your garage door because they allow the smooth operation of the panels.
