Torsion springs or extension springs?

More often than not, garage doors have torsion springs or extension springs. Torsion springs work because they apply torque to the drums that are located on both ends. They are held in place by cables. As the garage door operates, the spring winds then unwinds in order to balance the system and serve as the door's counterbalance. Torsion springs are located at the very top of the garage door. Extension springs contract and stretch as the door operates. They, in turn, counterbalance the weight of the door as it is opened and closed. These springs are located on the sides of the garage door. Usually a spring is located on each side of the door.

Most often, residential garage doors are equipped with either one or two springs. Doors of a larger size or heavier weight require more springs, usually four or more. Some garage door manufacturers use a special spring system on their doors, such as the EZ-Set spring system or the Torquemaster spring system. Our technicians are also trained in repairing and replacing those systems as well. When it comes to garage door springs, we definitely know our stuff.

Wooden garage doors

Wood garage doors are of course, the old traditional. Attractive and dependable, wood can last for decades. But here, we put an emphasis on the word "can." Wood expands when it is subjected to water. With the humidity and wet weather experienced in Allen, wood would not be the best choice. The wood will expand then crack, resulting in expensive repairs and early replacement. Economically speaking, wood is not the optimal choice for those in Allen and the metro area.

Aluminum Garage Door Installation Made Easy...

Aluminum is lightweight. Standard garage doors, which are often found in residential settings, are made of the durable metal. Aluminum, however, will bend more easily than other metals. So if your door is going to frequently be hit and abused day in and day out, you need to opt for a door that is made of a stronger material. When faced with those situations, aluminum will bend. Bent and damaged doors result in panels being replaced and even mechanical problems. Consider how the door will be used before settling on a material.

Steel back garage doors

If you need a door that can take a beating, go for the strongest material that is out there. Steel back garage doors can take the hitting and abuse that other doors can't handle. It takes more to dent or damage a steel door. Steel doors work well in settings such as repair shops, loading docks and factories. Steel can also hold up better when facing strong winds and violent storms. Steel back doors are available in a variety of styles and designs. You can get steel doors for residential and commercial settings.

Commercial garage doors are often larger and heavier than residential garage doors.

During a maintenance visit, the technician inspects the parts of your garage door.

The bearings, bolts, brackets, hinges, springs and rollers are given individual attention. With an eye for detail, the technician carefully checks for any problems, such as rust, excessive wear and tear or damage. If problems are found, he will notify you so they can be addressed before they worsen and cause you major issues. Maintenance is preventative in nature and helps promote the safe operation of your garage door.

Parts are cleaned. During the process, dirt and grime are carefully removed. After cleaning, the parts are inspected to ensure they move freely. A spray lubricant, such as WD - 40, is used on the parts. They are soaked very well in the lube so they won't have problems operating. The lube helps to protect the part and enable it to move as it should. Parts that have dried out will not operate properly and may suffer serious damage.

During the visit, the technician will also test and check your garage door opener.

Maintenance on an opener helps ensure safe operation. The technician will inspect the gears, the sprockets, the bearings, the belts and the sensors. He will check for any beeping sounds or flashing lights. Batteries will also be checked to make sure they don't need to be replaced. He will also make sure that reverse works on your garage door in the event you need it. Remote controls will also be checked to make sure their programming does not require updating and to ensure they are working right.
