Annual Tune-Ups
Regular maintenance and annual tune-ups are the key to ensuring the longevity, safety, and efficiency of your garage door. Our comprehensive annual tune-up service is designed to identify and address minor issues before they turn into major problems.
LUBRICATE ALL HINGES, BEARINGS, AND OVERHEAD DOOR TORSION SYSTEM PARTS
Proper lubrication plays a vital role in reducing friction and preventing damage to moving parts. Key components like hinges, bearings, and the torsion system in your overhead garage door rely on regular care. Using a premium garage door lubricant on these areas helps maintain smooth, quiet operation. This not only cuts down on noise but also protects against premature wear, ultimately extending the life of your garage system.
ADJUST OPENER AS NEEDED FOR PROPER TRAVEL AND FUNCTION:
The garage door opener controls the automated opening and closing of your garage door. Proper calibration is key to its performance. This includes fine-tuning settings like the travel distance, force sensitivity, and built-in safety features. These adjustments help ensure the door opens and closes completely, responds appropriately to obstructions, and consistently works as intended.
ADJUST AND TORQUE ANY LOOSE BRACKETS, MOUNTS, AND FASTENERS:
With regular use, vibrations can gradually loosen brackets, mounts, and fasteners. When hardware becomes loose, it can weaken the overall stability and safety of your garage door. Performing routine checks and tightening these components helps keep everything firmly in place, minimizing the chances of damage or accidents.
INSPECT, ADJUST, AND LUBRICATE ALL BELT/CHAIN DRIVE OPENERS AS NEEDED:
Garage door openers often rely on belt or chain drive systems to function efficiently. Regular inspections help ensure these systems remain in optimal condition. Maintaining the correct tension and applying lubrication as needed reduces friction, limits noise, and prevents premature wear. Keeping the drive system well-maintained promotes smooth and dependable operation.
INSPECT CABLES FOR SIGNS OF FRAYING
Garage door cables are essential for safely supporting the door’s weight. Regularly checking them for wear, fraying, or damage is vital to maintaining a safe system. If a cable becomes frayed, it poses a serious risk of snapping, which can result in injury or damage. Prompt replacement of compromised cables is key to preventing accidents and keeping your garage door operating smoothly.
TEST AND ALIGN ALL SAFETY SYSTEMS FOR FUNCTION AND ADJUST AS NEEDED
Garage door safety systems are built to help prevent injuries and accidents. These features often include sensors that detect obstructions and auto-reverse functions that stop and reverse the door when something is in its path. Routine testing and annual tune-ups are important to confirm these mechanisms are working properly. If any issues are found, timely adjustments are necessary to ensure the door reacts correctly to potential hazards.

May 10, 2025Phenomenal service and attention to detail. Al made sure to not only do the requested job but also lubricated and adjusted the door for better performance and sound. Also, triple checked colors matching on the side pieces; preventing a mismatch after assembly. Additionally, fixed a part of my door to enable the new seal to be installed; looking at a painful replacement before Al came through clutch with the repairs. Can’t recommend enough!

Efficient, prompt, courteous, and highly professional. We would recommend Harold, our technician, for any future problems we have. He was in and out of the house for a broken spring on the garage door within a half hour. Highly recommend.
