Gate Installation & Repair in Oceanside, CA

The most common homeowner mistake when it comes to garage door repair in Escondido is waiting too long. We understand it. It seems like a minor issue and probably not a big deal. Before you know it, it becomes a much bigger deal, and you’re suddenly spending a lot more money.

The reason for this is that garage door problems often aren’t isolated. Consider the common issue of a torsion or extension spring becoming misshapen. Sure, the door may still work for a while. Unfortunately, it will put undue stress on the other springs and damage them. It could cause the track to become unaligned or cause breaks in the door itself. It can cause wear and tear to the opener as well.

This is why we recommend calling ADS Garage Doors & Gates at the first signs of trouble, even if it’s really minor. The repair you make today is likely going to save you headaches, money and time down the line.

You should repair broken or damaged panels. They present a security risk. Those imperfections can also make your garage hotter or colder than it should be. That can lead to reduced energy efficiency and higher heating and cooling costs.

We also recommend replacing garage door springs proactively. They’re relatively inexpensive, and proactive replacement will save you hassles over the long run. You should replace them in pairs. If you have a spring rated for 10,000 cycles, then the five-year mark is a good target.
