Question 2

What causes noisy operation in garage doors?

Accepted Answer

Noisy garage door operation typically stems from several common issues: worn rollers (especially metal rollers that should be replaced with nylon), loose hardware that needs tightening, lack of lubrication on moving parts, worn hinges, unbalanced doors, or problems with the opener.
