The Tune-Up We’re Named After

Most garage doors only get attention when something breaks. A yearly tune-up catches worn rollers, fraying cables and a door drifting out of balance before they turn into a stuck door on a weekday morning. It also keeps the opener from straining, and keeps the door quieter.

U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (NEISS) estimates put garage door and opener injuries treated in U.S. emergency rooms at about 16,000 a year (2015–2024). Regular safety checks, especially of the auto-reverse system, are an easy way to lower that risk at home.

San Antonio heat is hard on doors

Long, hot summers dry out bottom seals and lubricant, and a hot garage makes an opener work harder. A check before summer, or before you leave on a long trip, is a good habit.

Tune-Up FAQ

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

Once a year is a good rule for most homes. Doors that are used many times a day benefit from more frequent checks.

Can I lubricate the door myself?

Yes: a garage-door lubricant on hinges, rollers and bearings helps. Leave spring adjustment and cable work to a technician.

Do you service any brand?

Yes. We service doors and openers from Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton, LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman and others.
