Lubrication of Hinges, Rollers, Springs
Proper garage door lube on every moving point. Not WD-40, that's a solvent, not a lubricant. The right product, applied where it actually matters.
Maintenance & Inspection
Garage Door Maintenance, Done Right.
Once a year, an hour on-site, and the door runs quieter, lasts longer, and won't surprise you on a Tuesday morning. Lubrication, balance and tension test, safety reverse, sensor alignment, written report. San Tan Valley, Queen Creek, Gilbert, Chandler and the East Valley. Arizona ROC #364315.
What's Included
What Maintenance Includes
A maintenance visit checks the moving parts and safety features listed below.
Balance & Tension Test
Manually disconnect the opener and check that the door holds at half-mast on its own. If it doesn't, the spring tension is off, we adjust on the spot. A balanced door is easier on the opener and lasts longer.
Safety Reverse Test
Confirm the door reverses on contact with an obstruction, the way the opener manufacturer requires. Required for child and pet safety. We test it the official way, with a 2x4 on the floor.
Sensor Alignment
Re-align the safety sensors at the bottom of the track, clean the lenses (Arizona dust is brutal on these), and confirm both indicators show solid green.
Hardware Tightening
Bolts and brackets vibrate loose over thousands of cycles. We torque the hinges, brackets, and track fasteners, it's quietly the most underrated step on the list.
Visual Inspection of Springs, Cables, Rollers
We look at every part of the system and call out anything that's worn, frayed, or near end-of-life. You get a heads-up before it breaks, not after.
Opener Function Check
Run the opener through a full cycle, confirm remotes and keypad pair correctly, check the close-force and travel limits. If the unit is showing its age, you'll know.
Written Report
Before we leave, you get a written summary of what we did, what's in good shape, and what's worth watching. Useful for HOA records, home-sale prep, or just knowing where the door stands.

Maintenance FAQs
Questions We Get Most Often
What does garage door maintenance include?
Lubrication of all hinges, rollers, and springs. Balance and tension test. Safety reverse test. Sensor alignment. Hardware tightening. Visual inspection of springs, cables, rollers, and panels. Opener function check, including remote and keypad. Written report with anything that's worth watching or addressing. About an hour on-site.
How often should I get garage door maintenance?
Once a year is the standard recommendation. Heavy-use households (door cycling 8+ times a day) benefit from twice a year. Light-use households can stretch to every 18 months, but annual is the safe default.
Is annual maintenance worth it on a newer garage door?
Yes, and arguably more so. Catching a sensor drift, a loose bolt, or a slightly off balance early on a newer door keeps the rest of the system from wearing prematurely. The first 5 years of maintenance protect the next 15.
Does the $199 roller offer include maintenance?
Yes. Roller replacement is $199 with maintenance included. Use the service request form to share your door details and arrange the visit with Nick.
Does my HOA require garage door inspections?
Most East Valley HOAs don't formally require garage door inspections, though some 55+ communities (like parts of Sun Lakes and Trilogy) request annual safety service. We're happy to provide a written inspection report for HOA records on request.
