Sweep the cobwebs from that Gurnee garage door

And some lubrication and maintenance wouldn’t hurt

You might want to wipe the cobwebs off your Gurnee
garage door. Having a garage door technician come in
and take a look - do a little maintenance - isn't a bad
idea either.

Garage doors are among the most neglected mechanical devices in your Gurnee home. It’s not that folks intend to neglect them; it just works out that way.

It’s actually a tribute to garage doors and garage door openers that they can work so well, for so long, when maintenance is the farthest thing from their owners’ minds. For many people, in Gurnee or otherwise, their garage doors have never received any maintenance. And yet those garage doors still go up and down on demand.

The problem is that, reliable as they are, as with anything mechanical, the time will come when something will break. Even more inevitable is that imperceptible decay in the efficiency of their operation.

From day to day, you don’t notice that the garage door is making more noise than it used to - that it takes longer for the garage door to go up and down. If it happened all at once, you’d notice immediately. But the change is incremental and minute. How can you tell the difference when the sound only goes up by the fraction of a decibel at a time or it takes a fraction of a second longer to raise and lower the door than it did yesterday?

Maintenance will keep your Gurnee garage door and garage opener operating at their peak performance longer. It will help to stave off that inevitable day when parts break and require repair or replacement. In the process, maintenance is a highly-cost-effective way of saving money.

The day you need to replace your garage door, garage door opener, or parts of either of these mechanical devices, is the day you have to open your wallet wider than you wanted or needed. Garage door maintenance – garage door opener maintenance – are the keys to a long and efficient life for your Gurnee garage door and garage door opener. That maintenance includes using the proper lubricants strategically applied.
