Mar 28, 2018 | Maintenance

Replacing your garage door can be a significant undertaking. Researching styles, construction, installation, and more can be overwhelming. You shouldn’t let those hurdles intimidate you or keep you from completing a needed replacement. Do not wait until the door is falling apart to being researching replacement options.

Do the safety sensors on your garage door opener work properly? Does the emergency stop on the door itself hold properly during manual operation? Risks to your family’s lives and health due to outdated or malfunctioning safety features should not be tolerated.

Different designs serve different functions and can offer benefits such as improved insulation, noise reduction, improved security, and more. Adding options such as windows can make the space feel more like a home and less like a converted garage. Take time to review your replacement options and select something designed to meet your functional needs.

SECURITY AT RISK

If your home and family’s security is at risk due to an outdated garage door, you should look into replacements or other solutions.
