4 Ways Know When It Is Time for a Garage Door Replacement

Have you been worried about your garage door but do not know if it is bad enough to replace yet? Everyone wants to have their garage door last as long as possible. However, here are some telltale signs that it is time for a garage door replacement.

1. Your Garage Door is Not Opening or Closing Properly– This can be caused by a sensor that it out of alignment, or an opener that is failing. These can cause you to have to at least partially manually open or close the garage, which means it is time for a garage door replacement.
2. Shaking or Noise– If you see that your garage door is shaking when it is opening and closing, it may be time for a replacement. At the very minimum, you should have it looked at to see if it needs any maintenance work.
3. Safety Concerns– If you have an older garage door and do not think it has the safety features that newer garage doors have, then is a good time to consider replacing it. Another safety issue is if your sensors are not working properly. If you have any safety concerns about your current garage door, you should at least have a professional check it.
4. Damage– If your garage door or any of its moving parts are damaged, it is definitely time to replace it.
