Sectional garage door servicing and safety checks in Barrow-in-Furness: what to expect

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.

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.

Safety points for Barrow-in-Furness customers

If a spring has broken, a cable has come off or the door hangs crooked, stop using it, keep people and pets clear and do not try to force it open or closed. Leave the operator unplugged until the engineer has checked it.
