What freeze-thaw seasons do to garage doors
Hot summers, cold winters, and everything in between: four-season climates cycle garage door hardware through constant expansion and contraction.
Freeze-thaw cycles fatigue springs
Constant expansion and contraction works spring steel harder than a steady climate ever would, shortening spring life season after season.
Winter cold stresses openers
Cold thickens opener grease and stiffens weather seals, making winter the peak season for stuck doors and strained motors.
Spring storms rack doors & tracks
Severe spring thunderstorms flex panels and shift tracks out of alignment, leaving doors crooked, noisy, or jammed.
Summer humidity swells and rusts
Humid summers swell wood doors and slowly rust springs, cables, and hinges - wear that shows up as failures the following winter.
