Why maintenance actually matters
Most garage door emergencies aren't random. Springs snap when they've hit their cycle count. Cables fray in the same spots for a year before they break. Openers fail because sensors were left dirty and the motor was straining. A yearly tune-up moves you from reactive to boring — which is exactly what you want.
What's included
Every tune-up covers 22 points
- Spring balance test. We disconnect the opener and lift the door by hand. A properly balanced door floats — a heavy door is a spring warning.
- Cable inspection. Both lift cables checked for fraying, kinking, and drum seating. Replaced immediately if wear is found.
- Roller condition. Worn nylon rollers get replaced with sealed-bearing units — the single biggest noise reduction on any door.
- Hinge & bracket torque. Every hinge and bracket bolt re-torqued to spec so panels stay aligned and the door doesn't rattle.
- Lubrication. Springs, hinges, and rollers lubed with lithium-based garage-door lube — not WD-40, which strips protective coatings.
- Opener safety test. Photo-eye sensors cleaned and aligned, force reversal tested, and travel limits verified per UL 325.
