Garage door maintenance

With USA Overhead Garage Door, keeping your garage door in an ideal condition has never been easier. Our garage door repair specialists arrive to your home, ready to work. And we include with every repair a FREE 25-point inspection.

What is a 25-point garage door inspection?

A 25-point inspection checks every moving part of your garage door for damage. It also allows our technicians to spot any damage before it happens. USA Overhead Garage Door’s free inspection allows our technicians to know exactly what kind of care your door needs before they begin their work.

The inspection consists of the 25 most important components of your garage door. Among them are: torsion & extension springs, cables, rollers, pulleys, and more. Of course, this also includes some smaller parts because they too can indicate the condition of the rest of the door. We do this in order to figure out if your door needs a repair, replacement parts, or just a simple tune-up.

Garage door maintenance is essential in order to save money on expensive future repairs. If one of USA Overhead Garage Door technicians spots a problem, we will bring it to your attention immediately. It is up to you whether or not you would like to go through with the repair. All of the repairs we suggest are merely for the sake of saving you money, and never to upsell. For USA Overhead Garage Door, we believe customer service should always be the first priority.

How often should I get a garage door tune-up?

We at USA Overhead Garage Door advise that you have your garage door tuned up every 6 to 12 months. Regular maintenance tune ups will prevent breakage, extend the life of your door, and makes sure that your door remains in the best condition possible.

Lubrication is the secret for a long-lasting garage door. A tune up usually includes lubrication of the garage door’s springs, cables, hinges, bearings, and rollers. These moving parts should be lubricated regularly as they are the ones most susceptible to breaking. Having an expert use the proper tools and lubricant will extend the life of your door for many years to come.
