If you’re noticing more noise than usual from your garage door, there might be a few reasons why. Let’s explore some common culprits and how you can fix them:

Loose Parts

• Over time, screws, nuts, and bolts may loosen up.
• You might need to tighten your belt or chain drives.

Worn-Out Components

• Rollers, springs, and hinges can wear out and might need replacing.

Opener Issues

• The garage door opener could be the source of the noise.

Environmental Factors

• Humidity can cause parts to swell or stick.
• Cold weather might make metal parts contract, leading to noise.

Spring Types

• Torsion or extension springs can change how noisy your door is.

Need for Lubrication

• Moving parts need regular lubrication to work smoothly and quietly.

Door’s Age

• Older garage doors may have worn components needing attention.
• An old opener might not operate as quietly as before.

Regular maintenance and timely repairs can keep your garage door running quietly and efficiently. By tackling these issues, you’ll enjoy a quieter home and extend the life of your garage door system. Keep it simple, and keep it smooth!
