Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend professional maintenance at least once a year. However, if your door gets heavy use or you notice any unusual sounds or movements, more frequent check-ups may be beneficial. Regular maintenance can prevent costly repairs and extend the life of your garage door system by many years.

Common signs include: the door feels heavy when lifting manually, the door opens unevenly or crookedly, you hear loud snapping sounds, visible gaps in the spring coils, or the door won't stay open. Springs typically last 10,000-20,000 cycles, so age is also a factor. Never attempt to replace springs yourself as they're under extreme tension.

A standard residential garage door installation typically takes 3-5 hours. This includes removing the old door, installing the new door and hardware, setting up the opener, and ensuring everything is properly balanced and aligned. Custom doors or complex installations may take longer. We'll provide a time estimate during your consultation.
