Our 20-Point Maintenance Inspection

How Often to Service Your Garage Door
Standard Use
Twice Per Year
Most Edmond homeowners should schedule maintenance in spring and fall. Oklahoma temperatures swing from below freezing in winter to over 100 degrees in summer. These extremes cause metal springs, cables, and hardware to expand and contract, gradually loosening connections and shifting tension.
Heavy Use
Quarterly
If your door cycles 4 or more times per day (common with home businesses, large families, or doors used as the primary entry), quarterly maintenance is worth the investment. Higher cycle counts accelerate roller wear, spring fatigue, and opener strain.
Maintenance Cost
$75 - $95
Full 20-Point Tune-Up

DIY Maintenance Between Visits
These tasks are safe for homeowners and help keep your door running smoothly between professional tune-ups.
Lubricate Moving Parts
Apply white lithium grease to hinges, rollers, and springs every 3 months. Do not use WD-40, which is a solvent, not a lubricant.
Visual Cable Inspection
Look at the lift cables on both sides of the door. If you see fraying, rust, or loose strands, call a professional. Do not touch the cables.
Listen for New Noises
A change in sound, such as grinding, squeaking, or popping, usually means something needs attention. Note when it happens (opening, closing, or both).
Keep Tracks Clean
Wipe the inside of the tracks with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Do not lubricate the tracks. The rollers should glide, not slide.
Test Door Balance
Disconnect the opener by pulling the manual release handle. Lift the door manually to waist height and let go. It should stay in place. If it falls or rises, the springs need adjustment by a technician.
Test Auto-Reverse
Place a 2x4 board flat on the ground in the door path. Close the door. It should reverse within 2 seconds of contact. If it does not, call Garage Door Edmond immediately.
