Garage Door Opening Manually

This can help avoid injury or damaging the door while working.

Garage door opening manually.

If you have a locked garage the house will generally have the clasp side attached to it while the other side where the locking mechanism goes will attach to the garage itself. Keep your garage door manual on hand and consult it before you begin working on your door. This is true weather you have a torsion or extension spring system. Typically in residential garage doors if your door is difficult to open manually it is caused by a broken or failing spring s.

Keep the rollers and chain lubricated on your garage door. It makes the door operate quiet and makes the chain and all. If your garage door is too heavy to lift by yourself avoid trying to open it manually and opt for a professional garage door repair service instead. Torsion spring systems use spring s that are mounted to a spring bar torsion tube that is mounted to the header above the garage door opening.
