What does a sectional door service involve in Carrickfergus?

Is servicing worth it on a newer door?

Yes. Early servicing keeps the door balanced, which protects the springs and the operator, and it may be a condition of some warranties.

How often should a door be serviced?

For a powered door used every day, once a year is sensible. A lightly used manual door can go longer, though we would not leave it more than two years. Commercial doors that open many times a day need more frequent visits.

What can you choose for your Carrickfergus garage?

  • Lubrication and adjustmentHinges, rollers, springs and cables.
  • Safety testForce, reversal, photocells and release.
  • Written reportWhat was done and what is wearing.
  • Annual serviceOne visit a year.

Questions from Carrickfergus customers

Do I need to service an electric garage door?

It is strongly recommended. Safety devices drift and wear, and only testing shows whether they still work.

Can I do anything between services?

Yes. Test the auto-reverse with a soft object monthly, keep the tracks clean and dry, and watch for frayed cables. Leave springs and cables to engineers.
