Why It’s Important to Choose an Experienced Garage Door Installer Who Cares About Doing the Job Right
Garage doors may feel lightweight when operated manually, but in reality, they are quite heavy, especially insulated double doors designed for two-car garages. The substantial weight of these doors is supported by springs that help the motor (or a person operating the door manually) open and close the door with minimal effort.
These springs, along with other components such as the motor, cables, and brackets, must be carefully selected to match the specific weight and size of the garage door. Installing springs or a motor that aren’t properly suited to the door can lead to malfunctions or breakdowns shortly after installation.
GREATER CHICAGO AREA
Improper Installation Can Be Just as Problematic as Using the Wrong Parts
Even if the right components are used, poor installation, such as cutting corners, skipping important adjustments, or failing to properly calibrate the system, can still lead to frequent issues and breakdowns.
In contrast, installing a new garage door or replacing faulty components with careful attention to detail and proper setup typically ensures a smoothly operating door that will last for many years.
Garage Doors May Seem Simple—But a Professional Technician Knows the Details Matter
At first glance, garage doors appear to be straightforward systems. However, an experienced garage door technician knows how important it is to pay close attention to every detail during installation or repair.
There are many critical factors to consider when installing a new garage door, replacing a motor, or swapping out components like broken springs, snapped cables, worn-out rollers, or damaged brackets.
A skilled technician doesn’t just replace the broken part, they also investigate the cause of the failure. For example, a gear inside the motor (often made of plastic) might break. Replacing it is a relatively quick repair, but it’s important to check why it failed. In many cases, old springs that haven’t been properly tensioned cause the door to be too heavy for the motor, putting excess stress on the gear.
That’s just one example. Garage doors rely on many moving parts that work together, and a problem in one component, like worn-out rollers, can accelerate wear on the rest of the system. This is why professional, detail-oriented installation and maintenance are key to long-term reliability.
