Is your garage door noisier than usual? Several factors could be at play:

Loose Components

• Screws, nuts, and bolts that have become loose.
• Belts or chain drives that need tightening.

Worn-out Parts

• Rollers, springs, and hinges that have aged and need replacement.

Faulty Garage Door Opener

• Issues with the garage door opener itself can generate noise.

Environmental Factors

• Humidity can cause parts to swell or stick.
• Cold weather can make metal parts contract, leading to noise.

Type of Springs

• Torsion Springs vs. Extension Springs—the type of springs on your door can impact noise levels.

Lack of Lubrication

• Essential moving parts need regular lubrication to run smoothly.

Age

• An old garage door may have worn-out components.
• An aged garage door opener might not operate as quietly as it once did.

Regular maintenance and timely repairs can help keep your garage door operating quietly and efficiently.

By addressing these issues, you can ensure your garage door works smoothly and quietly, preserving the peace in your home and prolonging the lifespan of your garage door system.
