Garage Door Maintenance<\/h3>\n

Garage doors Kansas City requires that several basic maintenance tasks be carried out annually to ensure that they last longer with fewer repairs.\u00a0 They are as follows:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Lubricate \u2013<\/strong> It doesn\u2019t matter whether you are dealing with residential or commercial overhead doors<\/a>; springs, hinges and rollers all need lubricated. For these components, use a lithium-based spray manufactured for garage doors. Do not use a spray with silicones.<\/li>\n
  2. Alignment \u2013<\/strong> If the tracks do not look properly aligned and level, be sure to call for professional maintenance.<\/li>\n
  3. Springs \u2013<\/strong> Visually check your springs for breaks or stretching. Torsion springs are mounted above your door connected by a torsion bar, drums and cables. Extension springs run horizontally along your tracks. If one is broken or does not appear uniform, you will want to get both, if applicable, replaced by a professional.<\/li>\n
  4. Annually one needs to check all fasteners, bolts and nuts \u2013<\/strong> Professionals will be able to tighten and repair any fasteners, bolts or nuts that have become loose or have broken.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
