F.A.Q

Our technicians specialize in broken garage door spring replacement


Our experts have compiled answers to common questions about garage door repair and maintenance. Check out about the utility of having some garage door parts made of galvanized steel and learn more about green garage doors.

What are the green garage doors?


They are garage doors made of recycled materials. Wood is made out of composite lumber and doors are highly insulation efficient. They ought to have a high r-value and good bottom seal. There are no 100% green doors but they can be partially ecological.

Why should I get galvanized tracks?


Galvanized materials won't erode in the future. Garage door tracks used to be made of plain steel and they were eventually corroded. As a consequence, the garage door rollers couldn't slide smoothly, the mechanism was noisy and people were called to replace them more often.

Can I buy heavier doors than the existing ones?


You can do whatever you want as long as you have the space according to our experts in Franklin Square. You can get larger or different types of doors and most likely the new ones will be heavier if they are insulated and bigger. In this case, make sure to change the springs and opener.

Why is it good to get galvanized hinges?


Garage door hinges are usually considered secondary components but they are of great importance according to our garage door company in Franklin Square. Stainless steel hinges will just save you the trouble of dealing with rusty parts and replacement. That's why they're preferred!

Can I use regular oil as lubricant?


It is not advisable to use regular oil to lubricate your garage doors since there are lubricants specifically made for that purpose. If you don’t have one yet, don’t improvise and only apply lubricant once you have purchased a bottle or tube. Using regular oil won’t work as well as a real lubricant.

What do I do if the opening of my garage is not the standard type?


Franklin Square experts can all agree on the fact that while this might have been a problem several years ago, being able to construct custom garage doors is now a very common occurrence. Garage door installation should still go smoothly regardless of the unorthodox opening.

How can I secure my garage?


Most garage doors have external locks that can be clasped to avoid break-ins while you are away. One other thing to do is to unplug the opener switch of your door so that it cannot be opened or closed by anyone who might have access to your remote. Some doors also have exterior locks which help you fasten the panels to the frame. Besides, if security is of real importance to you, you can also get special locks installed.
