Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my garage door won't close all the way?

If your garage door won’t close all the way, it could be due to a number of reasons such as an obstruction in the tracks, misaligned sensors, or a malfunctioning garage door opener. To fix the problem, you can try clearing any obstructions from the tracks and making sure the sensors are aligned properly. If the issue persists, it’s best to seek professional help from Goldi Garage Doors.

Can I install a garage door myself, or should I hire a professional?

While some homeowners may be tempted to install a garage door themselves to save money, it’s always best to hire a professional garage door company like Goldi Garage Doors. Garage door installation can be a complex and dangerous process, and improper installation can result in damage to the door, safety hazards, and even personal injury.

How can I tell if my garage door needs repair or replacement?

Determining whether your garage door needs repair or replacement depends on the extent and nature of the damage or wear and tear. Common signs that your garage door may need repair include unusual sounds or jerky movements when opening or closing, the door not opening or closing properly, and visible damage to the door panels, springs or cables. If the door is over a decade old and experiencing multiple issues, it may be more cost-effective in the long run to consider replacement instead of repairs. A professional garage door company like Goldi Garage Doors can inspect your door, diagnose any issues and recommend the best course of action, whether that’s repair or replacement.

How can I maintain my garage door to prevent future issues?

Regular garage door maintenance is essential for preventing future issues and prolonging the lifespan of your door. Here are some tips for maintaining your garage door:

Lubricate moving parts such as rollers, hinges, and springs every six months with a silicone-based lubricant.
Keep the tracks clean and free of debris to ensure smooth operation.
Test the door balance periodically to make sure it’s properly balanced and aligned.
Inspect the door for any signs of wear and tear, and address any issues promptly before they become bigger problems.
Check the weatherstripping and seals around the door to ensure proper insulation and energy efficiency.

How long will a new garage door last?

The lifespan of a garage door can vary depending on factors such as the quality of the materials, the frequency of use, and the level of maintenance. However, a well-maintained garage door from a reputable manufacturer can typically last anywhere from 15 to 30 years or more. At Goldi Garage Doors, we offer a wide selection of high-quality garage doors from trusted manufacturers, and our experienced technicians can provide expert installation and maintenance services to ensure your door lasts for years to come.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had the opportunity to use a garage door repair service, and I must say that I was impressed with the overall experience. The company I hired was prompt, professional, and knowledgeable.

First and foremost, the repair technician Alon arrived on time, which was a great start. He was courteous and took the time to explain the issues with my garage door in a way that was easy for me to understand. He also provided a detailed estimate of the repair costs, allowing me to make an informed decision.

The repair itself was carried out efficiently and effectively. The technician had all the necessary tools and equipment to fix the problem, and he completed the job in a timely manner. I appreciated his attention to detail and the effort he put into ensuring that the repair was done properly.

Furthermore, the technician went above and beyond by conducting a thorough inspection of my entire garage door system. He identified a few potential issues that could have caused problems in the future and provided recommendations for preventive maintenance.

The pricing of the service was reasonable and fair, considering the quality of work provided. I felt that I received good value for my money, especially considering the peace of mind that comes with having a properly functioning garage door.

Overall, I would highly recommend this garage door repair service with Alon/Company
