How often should I have my garage door professionally maintained?

We recommend having your garage door professionally inspected and maintained at least once per year, ideally before the winter season when cold temperatures can affect your door's operation. However, if your garage door sees heavy use—more than 4-5 cycles per day—you may benefit from semi-annual maintenance. During a professional maintenance visit, our certified technicians at Garage Door Sherwood perform a comprehensive 25-point inspection that includes lubricating all moving parts with professional-grade lubricant, checking and adjusting spring tension, inspecting cables for wear and fraying, testing the auto-reverse safety features, tightening all hardware and brackets, examining weatherstripping, and testing the balance of the door. Regular maintenance extends the life of your garage door by 5-10 years, prevents costly emergency repairs, ensures safe operation for your family, and maintains your manufacturer's warranty. Between professional visits, homeowners should visually inspect their door monthly, listen for unusual sounds during operation, and test the auto-reverse feature by placing an object in the door's path.

What are the signs that I need to replace my garage door springs?

Garage door springs are under tremendous tension and are one of the most critical components of your door system. There are several warning signs that indicate your springs may need replacement. First, if your door feels unusually heavy when lifting manually, this often means the springs have lost tension and are no longer properly counterbalancing the door's weight. Second, visible gaps in the spring coils indicate a broken torsion spring—this is an immediate safety concern and the door should not be operated until repaired. Third, if your door opens only partially or unevenly, the springs may be worn or one may have failed. Fourth, loud banging noises from the garage often signal a spring has broken. Fifth, if your door is more than 7-10 years old and the springs have never been replaced, they're likely nearing the end of their lifespan, as most standard springs are rated for about 10,000 cycles. At Garage Door Sherwood, we only install high-cycle springs rated for 25,000-50,000 cycles, giving you significantly longer service life. We strongly advise against DIY spring replacement—the extreme tension makes this one of the most dangerous home repairs, causing thousands of injuries annually. Our certified technicians have the proper tools and training to safely handle spring replacement, and we always replace springs in pairs to ensure balanced operation and prevent premature failure of the remaining spring.
