Garage Door Repair In San Antonio, TX

We offer a variety of services to help you improve or upgrade your garage, from initial installation and ongoing maintenance to urgent garage repair and top-of-the-line rollers and openers.

Whether you’re using your garage to store the family cars, or simply using the extra space as a place to keep belongings, a secure and sturdy door is a priority. Investing in a good quality door does more than leave you with a great new look, although this is absolutely a bonus. A new door can also increase protection and security for your home, making it harder for would-be thieves or intruders to make an entrance.

Gaps and cracks are appealing to those with bad intentions, and might even provide an easy way into your home. Pets are also smarter and sneakier than we think, and a small hole could be the ideal cat-sized escape or, worryingly, a fox-sized entrance.

You could even see reduced energy bills after installing a high-quality garage door. A properly fitted and insulated door will eliminate drafts and gaps, and energy efficient materials can help keep your garage cool in the summer and toasty in the winter.

Once you have decided to upgrade your door, you also need to make sure you select the correct and best opener. With the increase of Smart technology, it’s even more important to make sure that all of the components of your garage work together effectively to offer a seamless experience.

First, consider the horsepower needed to open and close your garage door. The size and weight of the door, as well as your preferred door speed, will help you find the right choice. Experts recommend choosing overpowered motors rather than underpowered ones.

There are three main types of systems to choose from, depending on your needs and preferences:

A Chain driven system is the most common type of garage opener, and usually the cheapest. The door is moved up and down via a chain which rides on a sprocket. Upkeep is easy and doesn’t normally require a professional. The downside is that it can be a noisy choice, and can require ongoing maintenance.

Belt driven options use rubber belts to open the door. The inclusion of rubber means that vibration or noise, which is a result of contact between metals, is substantially reduced or eliminated. Another bonus of the reduced vibration is increased longevity of the opener. The only negative to belt driven openers is that they tend to be more expensive.

Screw-driven varieties offer added peace to your life. Because there are fewer moving components, there is less maintenance required, and operation of your garage door is quieter than with other types of systems. A threaded rod is used to open and close the door. The main drawback to screw-driven openers is that they can be slow.

Whichever option you choose, it’s usually a good idea to allow a professional to carry out the installation. This helps to make sure that any maintenance or repairs that come up later won’t be built on poor quality work, which could be inconvenient or even dangerous.

There’s nothing worse than driving home through the rain, sleet or snow, only to have to leave your dry, warm car and brave the elements to open the garage door and get inside. Fortunately, remotes make this a thing of the past. With just a click, you can safely drive in and close the door, and the bad weather, behind you.

There is a wide variety of sizes, styles, and types of garage door remotes available today. The most basic models allow you to open and close the door remotely with the touch of a button. More complex options also allow you to control the speed of opening, turn the lights on before your arrival, or even enter a keypad number before your arrival.

If you are planning to invest in a remote, it’s essential to ensure that your garage opener is in tip-top condition to allow the best results. Opening the door remotely can sometimes mean you risk missing signs of wear and tear which become visible up close, or fail to catch things going wrong. Keeping on top of basic garage door maintenance is essential.

As mentioned previously, the key aspect of garage ownership is maintenance. This can be something which you carry out by yourself if you have the know-how, but which is most likely best left to the pros to ensure top quality results.

Regular visual inspections and tests of all moving parts can help you to catch problems early, hopefully avoiding expensive mistakes later on. When you start to notice unusual noises, cracks, or issues opening and closing the door, it’s best to contact the experts quickly to get your garage back to its full glory fast.
