Routine Garage Door Maintenance

​Keep your door running smooth, quiet, and safe year-round

​

Your garage door is one of the hardest working systems in your home. It goes up, it goes down, and it keeps doing that over and over—until one day it doesn’t. That is where routine maintenance comes in.

​

At HomeFront Garage Door, we offer professional maintenance services that help extend the life of your door, protect your motor, and catch small issues before they turn into expensive repairs. Whether your door is brand new or has a few years on it, regular maintenance just makes sense.

​

Why Maintenance Matters

 

Garage doors may look simple, but they are made up of dozens of moving parts that deal with tension, weight, weather, and daily use. Over time, those parts wear down. Springs stretch, cables loosen, tracks shift, and motors can start to strain.

Routine maintenance helps with:

​

  • Smoother, quieter operation

  • Better performance from your motor

  • Improved safety for your family and vehicles

  • Longer lifespan for all your door components

  • Fewer surprises and emergency service calls

 

If you have ever had a spring snap or a door come off track, you already know—prevention is way easier than repairs.\

​

What We Check and Service

 

Our maintenance visits are thorough, not rushed. We take the time to inspect everything and fine tune the system so it works like it should.

​

Here is what we do:

  • Inspect and balance the door

  • Test and adjust the torsion spring system

  • Lubricate hinges, rollers, and bearings

  • Check and tighten lift cables and track hardware

  • Inspect the condition of rollers, hinges, and drums

  • Clean and align the safety sensors

  • Test the motor, remote controls, and backup battery

  • Inspect weather seals and recommend replacements if needed

 

We will also let you know if anything is wearing out or likely to cause problems soon—so you are never caught off guard.

​

How Often Should You Schedule Service?

 

We recommend once a year for most homes. If you use your garage door heavily or have a larger custom door, twice a year may be better. Regular use, extreme weather, and daily wear all take a toll.

​

If you just had a new garage door and motor installed, yearly maintenance helps protect your investment and keeps your warranty valid in many cases.

​

Signs Your Garage Door Needs a Tune-Up

 

Even if your door is still working, there are some signs it might be time for a checkup:

​

  • It is louder than it used to be

  • It shakes or moves unevenly

  • The motor hesitates or strains

  • The door does not sit flush on the ground

  • You notice frayed cables or worn rollers

  • It just feels rougher or less reliable than it used to

 

If something feels off, it probably is. Let us take a look before a minor issue turns into a big problem.
