What’s Included in Our Maintenance Service?
We offer a thorough garage door maintenance checklist to protect your investment and keep your system working like new.
- Spring Inspection & Adjustment: We check the condition and tension of your high-stress torsion and extension springs, adjusting as needed to maintain balance and prevent premature wear.
- Track Alignment: Misaligned tracks can cause uneven movement or loud operation. We ensure tracks are perfectly aligned for smooth travel and reduced strain on moving parts.
- Garage Door Opener Calibration: From chain-drive to belt-drive systems, we test and calibrate your opener settings, ensuring consistent, responsive automation every time you push the button.
- Safety Sensor Testing: Our technicians test all safety reversing mechanisms and replace faulty sensors that could pose safety risks, ensuring your door stops and reverses when it should.
- Lubrication of Moving Components: Proper lubrication reduces wear and tear on hinges, rollers, bearings, and tracks. We use top-quality lubricants formulated for Edmonton’s climate.
- Weatherstripping & Seal Replacement: Worn or cracked weather seals invite drafts, moisture, and pests. We replace them to maintain interior comfort and efficiency.
- Hardware Tightening: Loose bolts and fasteners compromise safety and cause vibration noises. We secure all hardware to maintain structural integrity.
- Cable Inspection: Cables are essential for safe lifting. We check for fraying or slack and recommend replacement before a potentially severe failure occurs.
- Balance Testing: We test your garage door’s balance to ensure the opener isn’t overcompensating for excess weight—preventing strain and motor burnout.
