Garage Door Inspection Services

---

Your garage door is one of the most frequently used entrances to your home, and over time, wear and tear can lead to issues that might compromise its performance and safety. At Farmington Garage Door, we offer thorough garage door inspection services to ensure that your door is functioning properly and remains in peak condition. Regular inspections can help you avoid costly repairs down the road and ensure your garage door operates smoothly and safely.

Routine inspections are essential for catching potential problems before they become serious issues. Here are some key benefits of scheduling regular garage door inspections:

• Safety: A malfunctioning garage door can be a safety hazard. An inspection can identify risks such as worn springs, frayed cables, or misaligned tracks, which could lead to accidents if not addressed.
• Prevent Expensive Repairs: Small issues, when left unchecked, can lead to larger, more expensive repairs. Regular inspections help catch these problems early, saving you time and money.
• Extend the Life of Your Door: Regular maintenance and inspections help prolong the lifespan of your garage door and its components, ensuring you get the most out of your investment.
• Optimal Performance: Ensuring that all parts are in good condition will improve the efficiency and smooth operation of your garage door.

During a garage door inspection, our experienced technicians thoroughly examine all components to ensure they are in top working order. Here’s what we look for:

• Springs: We check for signs of wear or damage to your springs, as broken or weakened springs can cause your door to malfunction.
• Cables: Frayed or loose cables can compromise the stability of your garage door. We inspect all cables to ensure they are secure and in good condition.
• Rollers and Tracks: Rollers that are worn or misaligned tracks can affect the door's movement. We make sure everything is properly aligned and functioning smoothly.
• Garage Door Opener: We test your garage door opener to ensure it’s working efficiently and that all safety features, like the auto-reverse mechanism, are operational.
• Weatherstripping: We inspect the weatherstripping along the bottom of the door, checking for cracks or wear that might allow drafts, dirt, or pests into your garage.
• Balance and Alignment: A well-balanced garage door is crucial for smooth operation. We check that your door is balanced and doesn’t jerk or make noise while opening and closing.

Our Inspection Process

At Farmington Garage Door, we take a meticulous approach to inspecting your garage door. Our inspection process includes:

1. Visual Examination: We start with a visual check of all parts, looking for any obvious signs of wear, rust, or damage.
2. Lubrication: Moving parts like rollers, hinges, and tracks need to be well-lubricated to function smoothly. We ensure everything is properly greased and free of debris.
3. Tightening Loose Parts: Over time, nuts, bolts, and screws can loosen, which can affect the performance of your garage door. We tighten any loose components to prevent further issues.
4. Testing the Door: We’ll run a series of tests on your garage door to ensure it opens and closes properly, operates quietly, and all safety features, such as the auto-reverse mechanism, are working.
5. Detailed Report: After the inspection, we’ll provide you with a detailed report outlining any areas of concern, recommended repairs, and tips for ongoing maintenance.
