Frequently Asked Questions
How can regular service extend the lifespan of my garage door?
Regular garage door service, such as lubricating moving parts and checking for wear and tear, helps prevent major problems down the line. By catching issues early, ADS Automatic Door Specialists ensures that your garage door operates smoothly for years, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements.
What should I do if my garage door is stuck halfway open?
A garage door that is stuck halfway could indicate an issue with the door’s balance, the opener, or the tracks. It’s important to avoid forcing the door open or closed, as this could cause further damage. Instead, contact ADS Automatic Door Specialists for professional assistance in diagnosing and resolving the problem.
Why does my garage door reverse before fully closing?
This issue is commonly related to the safety sensors. If the sensors detect an object in the door’s path or are misaligned, they will cause the door to reverse. Cleaning the sensors or ensuring they are properly aligned can help, but if the issue persists, ADS Automatic Door Specialists can provide expert repair services.
Can extreme weather affect my garage door?

Preventive maintenance addresses small issues before they become bigger, more expensive problems. By scheduling regular inspections and tune-ups with ADS Automatic Door Specialists, you can avoid unexpected breakdowns and costly emergency repairs.
Why is my garage door moving slower than usual?

How can I make my garage door quieter?

How do I know if my garage door rollers need to be replaced?
