Frequently Asked Questions
How often should garage door tracks be lubricated?
We recommend a professional cleaning and lubrication once a year, ideally before winter, to prevent the metal tracks from contracting and stiffening up in the cold.
My sliding patio door is very heavy to move. Will this help?
Yes. Often, the issue is a buildup of pet hair and dirt in the bottom track or "flat spots" on the rollers. We clean the track and lubricate the rollers. If the rollers are damaged beyond repair, we can recommend replacement.
Do you fix bent tracks?
If the track is slightly bent, we can often reshape it with specialized tools during the service. However, severe damage usually requires a section replacement to prevent the door from derailing.
Why is a Technical Visit necessary?
Many homeowners make the mistake of spraying standard WD-40 on tracks. While it helps temporarily, it is a solvent that actually strips away factory grease and attracts dust, turning into a gritty paste that grinds down your rollers. Our Roller & Track Lubrication assessment identifies the specific material of your rollers (nylon vs. steel) to select the correct silicone or white lithium lubricant that repels dust and ensures longevity.
