Our 21-Point Garage Door Safety Inspection Includes
1. Sections & Struts
We inspect all sections of the door and the structural struts for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. Ensuring the integrity of these parts is essential for the door’s smooth operation.
2. Rollers
Our team checks the rollers for wear and tear. Worn rollers can cause the door to become misaligned or noisy, and can even lead to further damage if left unaddressed.
3. Hinges
We inspect the hinges for rust, damage, or misalignment. Faulty hinges can cause strain on your door’s mechanism and lead to premature failure.
4. Track
We ensure that the tracks are clear of debris, aligned, and properly secured. Misaligned tracks are a leading cause of door malfunctions and can prevent the door from opening or closing properly.
5. Bearings
Bearings help your door move smoothly and without friction. Our experts check to ensure the bearings are lubricated and functioning correctly.
6. Torsion Tube
We inspect the torsion tube for any damage or wear, as this component plays a crucial role in controlling the balance of the door.
7. Springs
Springs are under a great deal of tension, and we inspect them to make sure they’re operating at the correct tension. If springs are too loose or too tight, it can lead to serious safety issues and damage to the door.
8. Cables
We check the cables for frays, damage, or slack. Worn cables can snap, causing the door to fall, so it's important to inspect and replace them regularly.
9. Bottom/Top Brackets
These brackets secure the garage door to the cables and springs. We ensure they are securely fastened and free from wear that could compromise the system's integrity.
10. Locks
Whether you use them for added security or convenience, we check all locks for proper function. Ensuring they’re working properly protects both your home and your garage.
11. Weather Stripping
We inspect the weather seals around the door to prevent drafts, rain, and pests from entering. A well-sealed door improves energy efficiency and protects your garage from the elements.
12. Insulation
If your garage door is insulated, we’ll inspect the insulation for damage or gaps. Proper insulation is key to maintaining temperature control in your garage and can save you money on energy bills.
Garage Door Opener System
1. Chain/Belt Tension
We assess the tension of the opener’s chain or belt. Proper tension is essential for smooth, quiet operation and to prevent the opener from overworking itself.
2. Gear/Shaft
Our technicians examine the gear and shaft for wear or damage, which can cause the opener to malfunction or fail.
3. Sensitivity
We test the sensitivity of your garage door opener to ensure that it reverses correctly when it encounters an obstruction. This safety feature is vital to avoid accidents.
4. Travel Limits
We check the travel limits of your door opener to ensure that it opens and closes all the way without any issues.
5. Safety Sensors
We inspect the safety sensors at the base of the garage door to ensure they’re properly aligned and functioning. Malfunctioning sensors can prevent the door from closing and create a safety hazard.
6. Wall Button
The wall button is checked for proper operation. If the wall control isn’t working, it could be a sign of electrical issues or a malfunctioning opener.
7. Remotes
We test the remotes to ensure that they are sending the proper signals to your opener and working as intended.
8. Keypad
If you use a keypad for entry, we check its functionality and connection to the opener. A malfunctioning keypad could compromise access to your garage.
9.Opener Bracing
We verify that the opener is securely braced and supported to prevent unnecessary movement or noise. A stable opener ensures quiet, reliable performance.
