Professional Garage Door Maintenance in Concord, NH
Garage door emergencies seldom happen at a convenient time. They occur at night, during a Concord blizzard, when you’re rushing to get to the airport or to your warm, dry bed.
If your garage door is stuck (with your vehicle inside) or jammed (with your vehicle outside) and you can’t solve the problem manually, it’s an emergency, a safety risk and a security issue.
The best way to avoid a garage door emergency is through regular maintenance. We recommend garage door maintenance at least annually.

Can You DIY Garage Door Maintenance?
DIY garage door maintenance is never a good idea. Your insurance provider could deny coverage if property is damaged due to DIY garage door installation or repair.
Plus, there are about 30,000 garage-door related injuries every year. If you hurt yourself or the family pet, you’ll be no one’s hero.
Garage door maintenance you can (and should) do include:
- Don’t let the kids play with the remote.
- Halfway between maintenance visits, check the door balance, hardware, photosensors and weatherstripping/seals. Visually inspect the cables and springs; if you see signs of damage or deterioration, contact us as soon as possible.
- Use your older garage door as little as possible (and begin budgeting for a replacement garage door).
- Wash the door panels using a multipurpose cleaner or mild soap and water. Use a sponge or soft cloth to wash and avoid using abrasive materials. Rinse thoroughly.
The best way to guarantee reliability and superior garage door performance is to partner with the right local garage door company for installation, maintenance and repairs.
