Fall in The City brings cooler nights, longer wet stretches, and debris that collects along tracks and bottom seals. Garage doors that felt fine in dry weather start sticking, squeaking, or letting damp air into attached garages.
Walk the door once before heavy rain arrives: look at the bottom weatherstrip for cracks, clear leaves from the track area, confirm photo-eye lenses are clean, and listen for new grinding or scraping. New noises often mean rollers, hinges, or bearings need service — see garage door making noise.
Skip spraying grease on nylon rollers or tracks in ways that collect grit. A technician maintenance visit covers balance, spring condition, hardware torque, seal condition, and opener safety reverse — the checks that prevent mid-storm failures. Browse maintenance for what we include.
