Signs You Need a Garage Door Company

Though the concept of an overhead door is simple, they’re surprisingly complex. The large number of potential parts leads to an almost endless array of problems. Unfortunately, it can be just as hard to determine when an Las Vegas garage door company needs to be called. Below are a few signs that a simple DIY fix for your garage door isn’t the answer:

  • A door that slipped completely off the track
  • Loud noises that cannot be quieted through lubrication
  • It slams shut in an unsafe manner
  • Opening it produces grinding or pronounced rattling
  • It refuses to open or close completely

It’s important to schedule Las Vegas overhead door repairs quickly! The longer issues persist, the more likely it is that expensive damages will result. In some cases, you might even wind up replacing your garage door prematurely. Below, we’ll outline the most common issues we see and briefly explain their cause.

Common Garage Door Issues in Las Vegas

If you’re dealing with any of the following issues, you can count on our overhead door repair company to fix them:

Garage Spring Repair

When it comes to residential door operation, few things are as important as the spring. After repeated use, these can snap or stretch. Though it may look like an easy repair, replacing these is quite dangerous. They’re under a lot of weight and pressure. So, leaving Las Vegas overhead spring repair to a professional is best.

Cable Repair

Garage cables work in conjunction with the springs to help with balance and motion. If you notice yours is frayed or worn, call (702) 751-0231 for a heavy-duty replacement. This isn't a DIY job, with your typical garage door weighing over 400 pounds.

Broken Garage Rollers

Rollers are little wheels that attach to the panels of your door and help it roll smoothly along the track. Your door will no longer close or open properly when they snap or bend. Identifying this issue is something best left to an Las Vegas overhead door repair expert.

Misaligned Door Track

Does your door rub or squeal at a certain spot on the track? Do you see gaps along the track? Then, you probably have an overhead door alignment issue. Fixing this is probably a bigger job than you expect. So, just leave it to Good Golly Garage Doors.

Noisy Open or Close

Are you tired of your doors opening with a clap or squeal? Then, it’s time to call an Las Vegas garage door repair company. They can quickly identify the root cause of the issue, removing a need for guess and check. Adding insulation or a more powerful opener can also help mitigate this problem.

Garage Door Panel Replacement

Did a new driver in your household dent your overhead door? Are you tired of rust on a particular panel? Don’t immediately jump to replacing the whole door—it’s unnecessary! Our garage door replacement specialists can replace just that section and boost your Las Vegas home’s curb appeal.

Opener Repair

There’s nothing more convenient than an automatic garage door. So, it’s inconvenient when yours breaks. After checking the batteries on the remote, it’s time to call in a garage opener specialist. Contact us at (702) 751-0231 to schedule garage opener service.

Sensor Repair

Garage sensors help keep your family safe. They use an infrared beam to detect when something is obstructing the door. But they sometimes stop working properly. This can lead to a door that refuses to open. To diagnose and fix this issue, contact Good Golly Garage Doors at (702) 751-0231.

Garage Door FAQs

You know garage doors dent and rust out. But you’ve never seen one cracked. Not until today, at least.

Typically found in the top section of the door, these unsightly blemishes are typically caused by:

  • Springs that are too weak for the door leading to increased force on its top section
  • Operator brackets and rollers are not aligned at the proper pivot point
  • Struts making repeated contact with opener arms when the door is pushed up
  • An opener set at an improper angle
  • A close cycle that ends improperly

Fortunately, a crack doesn’t necessarily lead to installing a new garage door in Las Vegas. After solving the root cause, swapping out a single section is enough.

This question is a big one and is one of the main reasons you need a Las Vegas overhead door repair company on speed dial. We understand that no one wants to replace a garage door. Our clients often cross their fingers for a simple repair. But there are times when installing a new door is the more cost-effective option. Below are a few items that tip the scales toward full-on replacement:

  • Your door was manufactured before 1993
  • There are dents or cracks that extend across the door’s entirety
  • Signs of rot are beginning to show
  • Regular repairs are necessary to keep it operational

Still not sure what to do next? Make the decision easier with a call to (702) 751-0231 or contact us to schedule a quote.

If the dent is small or doesn’t impede function, you can likely repair it yourself. Many methods exist, including wood mallets, heated foil, glazing compound, and a plunger or dent remover. For larger issues, we recommend swapping out entire sections. Sometimes, Las Vegas garage door replacement is the only option.

Your garage door is a vital part of your home. They provide you with safety, security, and privacy. They also help protect your belongings from inclement weather. Fortunately, most repairs in Las Vegas are pretty reasonable on the cost front. Typically, you can expect to pay between $150 and $500 for a fix. Factors influencing this cost include the size of the door, its construction, and the severity of the problem.

There are a few troubleshooting steps you can take before calling us for Las Vegas overhead door repair. First, lubricate the springs and plates at the top of the door. Close and open it a few times to help spread the grease. Then, apply a layer of grease to the armbar and lock. Also, check for obstructions or debris in the track. Even a small obstacle can impede operation. If none of these fix the issue, give (702) 751-0231 a call.

A typical overhead door spring is designed to last around 10000 cycles. This means their lifespan varies based on how often the door is used. Typically, however, that lifespan will fall between seven and ten years. Over time, the steel will grow fatigued and crack. Typically, this garage door repair problem manifests in a sudden BANG and a door collapse. Even if only one spring fails, we recommend replacing both. This is due to the likelihood that the other one will fail soon.

Not every garage door facelift in Las Vegas requires help from one of our experts. In the case of rust, a new coat of paint and a quick sanding is often enough to fix the problem. For wooden doors, mold and dark spots may pose similar issues. A few coats of stain are often enough to disguise these eyesores. The added layers not only boost your curb appeal but also help protect your door from spreading damage and provide a small improvement in insulation.

Unless you have experience replacing torsion springs, leaving this repair task to a professional is best. That spring is designed to hold well over three hundred pounds. That means it’s under a tremendous amount of pressure. And, if handled improperly, all of that force can fall back on you. We’ve seen plenty of crushed fingers in our time handling Las Vegas garage spring repairs.
