Common Garage Door Repairs in Unionville, NC

Daily cycling, seasonal humidity, and driveway dust can wear down moving parts. We routinely fix:

• Broken torsion or extension springs that make the door heavy or inoperable

• Frayed or snapped lift cables that leave the door crooked or stuck mid-travel

• Off-track doors, bent tracks, and worn rollers that grind or bind

• Garage door opener issues including motors, belts/chains, travel limits, logic boards, keypads, and Wi-Fi

• Photo-eye sensor misalignment or sun glare that triggers reversals

• Damaged panels and failing weather seals that reduce efficiency and curb appeal
  If the opener is the culprit, head to garage door opener repair for fast diagnostics and solutions.

Garage Door Spring Repair Unionville, NC

Springs counterbalance the full weight of your door. When one breaks, the opener strains and the door can slam shut or refuse to lift. We size and install the correct torsion or extension springs for your exact door, wind to precise torque, and balance the system to protect your opener and extend component life. High-cycle spring upgrades are ideal for busy households using the garage as the primary entrance. To schedule service, start with garage door repair.

Garage Door Opener Repair Unionville, NC

From an opener that hums but won’t move to remotes that only work at certain angles, we diagnose and repair LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, and other leading brands. Services include motor and gear replacement, belt/chain and rail service, safety-sensor alignment, travel/force recalibration, battery-backup checks, and Wi-Fi reconnects. If replacement makes more sense, we’ll recommend quiet belt-drive or wall-mount models with smartphone control. Compare repair vs. upgrade on garage door opener repair and garage door installation.

Local Insights: Unionville Homes, Roads, and Climate

• Afternoon sun glare: West-facing drives near Lawyers Rd and Unionville-Indian Trail Rd can wash out safety sensors late in the day. We slightly angle photo-eyes, add sun shields, or upgrade sensors for reliable closing.

• Humidity and pop-up storms: Summer moisture and thunderstorm gusts along the Monroe Expressway corridor can dry out lubrication and nudge tracks or brackets. Our tune-ups include weather-appropriate lubricants, hardware re-torque, and track truing.

• Pollen and road dust: Spring pollen and commuter dust collect on rollers and sensor lenses, causing squeaks and nuisance reversals. We clean lenses, recommend sealed nylon rollers, and set stable travel/force limits.

• Mixed headroom needs: From older garages with tight headroom to newer builds with tall SUVs, lift hardware varies. We carry low-headroom kits, high-lift options, and correctly sized springs to match your site.

Preventive Garage Door Maintenance Unionville, NC

A yearly tune-up prevents surprise breakdowns and protects your opener:

• Lubricate rollers, hinges, bearings, and springs every 6–12 months with a garage-rated silicone or lithium spray (not WD-40)

• Wipe photo-eye lenses and confirm both LEDs are solid, not flickering

• Tighten track and hinge fasteners after big temperature swings

• Replace the bottom seal and perimeter weatherstripping if you see light or feel drafts

• Test balance by disconnecting the opener; the door should hold near mid-travel—if it drops or shoots up, call for service

FAQs – Garage Door Repair Unionville, NC

Why does my door reverse before closing?
Usually dirty or misaligned sensors, sun glare, or weak wiring. We clean, align, shield, or replace sensors and verify low-voltage connections. See related fixes on garage door opener repair.

How long do garage door springs last?
Typical lifespan is 10,000–20,000 cycles. High-cycle springs are a smart upgrade for busy households. Start with garage door repair to get the right sizing.

Can you match a damaged panel?
Often, yes. If the exact section is discontinued, we source a visually compatible panel or provide a cost-effective new door option on garage door replacement.
