Common Garage Door Repair Issues

Did you know that most garage door springs are rated for about 10,000 uses before the springs start to fail? During normal use, you’ll likely get less than 10 years before it’s time to replace the springs. Garage doors have many moving parts that can wear down over time, but at Gutwein Quality Doors Inc., we can repair them all.

Some of the most common issues we see include
  • Doors that won’t open or close properly
  • Off-track doors
  • Worn cables
  • Damaged panels
  • Malfunctioning safety sensors
  • Grinding, squeaking, or banging noises

Broken Spring Repair Services

Broken springs can make your garage door sometimes too heavy to lift. It’s a common and dangerous issue that every garage door owner will eventually face. Replacing worn springs is not a DIY project, but Gutwein Quality Doors Inc. is here to handle things when your door springs give out.

We replace both torsion and extension springs, with the option to upgrade to high-cycle springs to increase the number of use cycles before you’ll need your next replacement. During this type of garage door repair, we’ll remove the damaged spring, install the replacement, and test the door to make sure it opens smoothly before we clean up.

Signs You Need Garage Door Repair

Garage doors can fail slowly over time, or suddenly and with little warning. It all depends on the type of problem you’re experiencing. No matter what’s wrong with your garage door, or what type of garage door you have, the experts at Gutwein Quality Doors Inc. can recommend a lasting fix.

Some signs that your garage door needs professional repairs might include:
  • Unusual noises
  • Slow, jerky movements
  • Inconsistently responds to the opener
  • Unexpected reversing
  • Lopsided hanging

Garage Door Opener Repair

Your garage door opener, whether it’s a switch or remote, is what controls operations. When it’s working properly, you have easy access to your garage, but when it’s not, you can get locked out or locked in to your garage. At Gutwein Quality Doors Inc., we offer garage door opener repair for all major brands and models.

Some of the most common opener problems we see include worn gears, faulty wiring, sensor misalignment, and remote control issues. As long as your opener is repairable, we’ll get it fixed quickly. If it’s beyond fixing, we also offer new installations, so no matter what the scope of the problem, we have a solution.
