Garage door questions, answered for Southwest Sandhill

Local weather drives most of the repairs we run in Southwest Sandhill: with semi-arid climate of hot and extreme summer heat that bakes and warps lightweight steel panels, rapid day-to-night temperature swings that loosen hardware over time, and low ambient humidity that dries out factory track lubrication fast, the common failure modes are dust-blinded photo-eye safety sensors, dust-fouled tracks that bind and throw the door off level, prematurely fatigued springs from extreme thermal cycling, and cold-snapped springs after hard winter freezes. Our Southwest Sandhill trucks stock the parts those conditions wear out first, so most jobs are a single visit.

The median Southwest Sandhill home dates to 1984, with 41% of the stock built before 1980 — a real mix of original and already-replaced doors, which is why we quote repair-versus-replace honestly on every call.

In Southwest Sandhill it is usually dust-blinded photo-eye safety sensors — and because the area has mainly suburban houses with attached two-car garages, mixed with some older central-neighborhood homes, we also see a lot of dust-fouled tracks that bind and throw the door off level. Both are stocked on the truck, so most repairs are one and done.
