Key Problems Indicating Your Garage Door Needs Replacement

When your sad, rusted, dented door is screaming “replace me”, listen. Other than looking unattractive, a deteriorating garage door can compromise its structure. If it’s sagging, your safety and security could be threatened and put your family and possessions at risk by creating an open invitation (and an open door) to theft and burglary. Don’t let that happen!

Weighing the Costs: Repair vs. Replacement

Have you been having a lot of problems with your garage door lately? Are garage door repair costs adding up? If so, the costs of service and parts may warrant replacing the door for a beautiful, newer model. If your door is old, replacement parts may not be available, another reason a new garage door makes sense.

Importance of Insulation in Garage Doors

Chances are your original garage door may not be insulated. While an uninsulated garage door transfers cold air to rooms next to and above your garage, an insulated door will save on heating and cooling costs. Controlling the temperature in your garage reduces the amount of energy required to heat the rest of your home. Insulated doors are more durable, quieter, and will better protect your cars and possessions. Besides, keeping your garage warmer (or cooler) makes it more comfortable and convenient to do activities in it, like hobbies or working out.

Essential Safety Features of New Garage Doors

Today’s new garage doors come equipped with a safety reverse mechanism called safety sensors or photo eyes. When something is in the way of the door closing, the safety sensors immediately reverse the door. This is especially important if you have children since older doors do not have this feature. Since the early 90’s, all doors require safety sensors. It’s the law. How old is your door?
