Older garage doors often show signs of wear and tear. If the door has been well-maintained over its life, then most of the repairs will be small and possibly even come as part of a preventative maintenance service. Professionals can identify when one of the components is starting to show signs of breaking down and that it will need a repair soon.
Every now and then, a part will break just because of some strain or an accident. If this happens, it is best to call a professional, either for DIY advice on simple fixes or repair from a qualified technician. Garage Door Specialists, Inc. can fix your door, whether you own a home or business in the Newland, North Carolina, area.

Common Residential Garage Door Issues
There are a few common issues that happen unexpectedly. Here are some of the top ones we have experienced in our over 40 years in the business:
- Stuck garage door: A garage door can be stuck for a number of reasons, including jammed cables, hinges or rollers or if there is an issue with the engine. We’ve experienced them all and fixed them all. Give us a call, and we’ll come and find the issue and resolve it for you.
- A slow door: Garage door motors become worn over time, causing them to become sluggish. If your garage door has a battery component, this could also be the fault, or there may be a problem with the power connection. If you are experiencing a slow door, we’ll come and tend to the issue.
- Uneven door: An uneven door can be an issue with the springs. If the door is noisy when it opens, it could also be that the door is tethering on the tracks. Call us as soon as possible before the problem becomes a safety concern.
Commercial Door Service
Commercial doors need proper maintenance to support smooth business operations. They also need to be checked against safety regulations and for overall security. But the biggest reason you should get your commercial door serviced is that, in general, they undergo more use than residential doors. More use means more wear and tear. Keep on top of it with regular services.
Common Commercial Door Issues
A lot of issues can be resolved through preventative maintenance, but sometimes, you’ll need to phone in for a repair. Here are some of the common commercial garage door issues you might experience:
- Malfunctioning openers
- Damaged panels or sections
- Broken springs
Give us a call if you have experienced these concerns or need any other type of repair.
