What Does Residential Garage Door Maintenance Include?

Proper residential garage door maintenance includes checking every part of your system, especially moving pieces that do all the heavy lifting. Here’s what a standard tune-up includes:
  • Visual Inspection

    We look for rust, wear, and damage on springs, cables, rollers, and pulleys.
  • Lubrication

    We apply high-quality lubricant to all moving parts – such as hinges, rollers, and tracks – to stop squeaking and reduce friction.
  • Door Balance Test

    The door’s constant vibration can loosen nuts and bolts. We use our tools to tighten everything securely.
  • Hardware Tightening

    Addressing visual issues early can prevent more operational problems in the future.
  • Safety Sensor Test

    We test the photo-eye sensors near the floor to ensure the door reverses instantly if something is in the way.

Automated & Electric

Differences Between Automatic and Electric Garage Door Maintenance Services

People often use the terms “automatic” and “electric” garage doors to mean the same thing, but they can require slightly different care:

  • Automatic Garage Door Maintenance – This usually focuses on the mechanical components and remote systems that open the door without human effort. It includes checking remote batteries, realigning the safety sensors, and testing the automatic reversing mechanism.
  • Electric Garage Door Maintenance – This typically addresses the actual motor and electrical supply. Our technicians check the wiring, test the motor’s power output, and verify that the logic board is functioning correctly. We also inspect the gears inside the electric opener to ensure they’re not grinding or wearing out prematurely.

Benefits of Regular Garage Door Maintenance

So, why should you bother paying for garage door maintenance? The following benefits will directly impact your wallet and peace of mind:

  • Money Savings – Fixing a small issue today costs much less than replacing a snapped cable or a burned-out motor tomorrow.
  • Increased Safety – A falling garage door can cause serious injury or damage to your vehicle. Regular checks ensure the safety mechanisms work perfectly.
  • Breakdown Prevention – Nobody wants their car trapped in the garage on a Monday morning. Maintenance keeps your door reliable.
  • Improved Security – A broken door is an easy target for thieves. Keeping your system strong will protect your home and belongings.

Maintenance Plans and Scheduling

You don’t have to remember to check your garage door on your own. Mr. Garage Doors of Canada offers simple, affordable maintenance plans. We recommend booking a professional service at least once a year. If you live in an area of Western Canada with extreme weather changes, twice a year – in the spring and fall – is even better.

Our team will call you when it’s time for your check-up. You can trust us to work around your busy schedule to find a time that’s convenient for you.
