Garage Door Maintenance & Tune-Up
A fall tune-up that readies springs, seals, and the opener for an Illinois winter.
About this service
October is the month to service a Chicago-area door, before the first hard freeze finds a dry hinge or a cracked bottom seal. A tune-up appointment covers low-temperature lubrication of springs and rollers, torque on every fastener, a look at cable wear and drum seating, a balance test with the opener disconnected, and the photo-eye and force-reverse checks. The technician leaves a written summary of what was adjusted and what to keep an eye on through the season.
What's included
- Springs, rollers, and hinges lubricated with low-temperature grease
- Every fastener checked for torque
- Cable wear and drum seating inspected
- Balance and force-reverse tests with the opener disconnected
- Bottom seal and weatherstrip checked before winter
