A full garage door service, Perth wide

The garage door inspection and service is a proper going-over of every moving part on the door and the opener. Not a spray and a wave.

What the service covers

  • Springs. Checked for wear, fatigue, rust and correct tension. Balance tested.

  • Cables and drums. Checked for fraying, correct seating and even winding.

  • Custom doors. Checked for alignment, rust, corrosion and loose hardware. Adjusted where needed.

  • Rollers and bearings. Checked and lubricated. Worn rollers flagged.

  • Hinges and fixings. Tightened. Cracked hinges flagged.

  • The motor and drive. Chain or belt tension, gear condition, travel limits and force settings checked and adjusted.

  • The safety reverse. Tested properly. If your door does not stop and reverse when it hits an obstruction, that is the single most important thing we will fix that day.

  • The remotes. Range and reliability checked, batteries checked.

  • Full lubrication of every moving point that should be lubricated, and none of the ones that should not be.

At the end you get told, in plain English, what is fine, what is wearing, and what will need doing and roughly when. No scare tactics. If the door is in good shape, we will say so and drive off.

Signs your garage door needs a service

Book a service if any of these are true. These are the warnings that come before a breakdown.

How often should a garage door be serviced? Once every 12 months for a normal household. Every 6 months if the door is used many times a day, or if you are close to the coast where salt air corrodes springs, cables and tracks faster.

The door is getting noisier. Grinding, screeching, rattling or a heavy clunk each time it moves.

The door judders or jerks on the way up instead of travelling smoothly.

The door sits crooked, in the frame, or one side lifts before the other.

The door is heavy to lift by hand, with the motor disengaged. A properly balanced door should lift with one hand and stay where you leave it.

The motor sounds like it is straining, or it is getting slower and louder over time.

The door will not stay open, and drifts down on its own.

The remote needs two or three presses, or only works up close.

You can see rust on the tracks, springs or cables, which is common near the coast.

The door does not reverse when it hits something. This is a safety failure and it needs attention now.

It has been more than 12 months since the last service, or you have no idea when it was last done.

Who you will be dealing with

Why Perth homeowners book their garage door service with us

We do the work ourselves. That is the whole reason the service is worth booking. A servicing job is entirely a trust exercise, because you are paying someone to tell you honestly what is wrong with something you cannot assess yourself.

Our one existing review praises the "regular updates on expected time of arrival," which tells you the kind of business we are. We turn up. We communicate. We do not disappear.

Based in Perth, we cover across Perth metro, from Alkimos at the top to Mandurah at the bottom, and east to Kalamunda. We work on residential garage doors and the common Perth garage door brands.

“Amazing service, regular updates on expected time of arrival. Can not fault anything. Very happy customer.”

Questions

Garage door servicing in Perth: common questions

How much does a garage door service cost in Perth?

A garage door service is a cheap, preventative check that heads off much bigger repairs later. We keep it priced simply, so ask us for the cost when you call on 0455 515 428. It covers the inspection, adjustment, lubrication and safety testing of the door and the motor. Any parts needed are quoted separately and approved by you before the work is done.

How often should a garage door be serviced?

Once every 12 months for a typical family home. Every 6 months if the door opens and closes many times a day, or if you live near the coast, where salt air corrodes springs, cables and tracks noticeably faster than inland.

What is actually included in a garage door service?

A full inspection of the springs, cables, drums, tracks, brackets, rollers, hinges and the motor. Balance and tension checked, travel limits and force settings adjusted, the auto-reverse safety feature tested, remotes checked, and every moving part lubricated. You get a plain report on what is worn.

Will a service stop my garage door breaking down?

It stops most of them. The failures we attend on emergency callouts are usually springs, cables and motors that were showing wear months earlier. A service catches worn parts while they are still an adjustment or a cheap replacement rather than a breakdown with your car trapped inside.

How long does the service take?

Usually around an hour for a standard residential door, depending on what condition it is in and whether anything needs adjusting. If we find something that needs repairing, we will quote it and, where we have the part on the van, we can often do it there and then.

My door works fine. Do I still need a service?

Yes, and that is exactly when it is worth doing. Servicing a working door is cheap and quick. Attending a door that has already failed is neither. The door "working fine" only tells you it has not broken yet, not that the springs and cables underneath are in good condition.
