  1. Garage Door Safety Tips That Must Take Care

  2. Your overhead door is the largest and heaviest moving item in your house. You don’t wish to mess with it. Garage doors injure thousands of people every year. Help keep your family safe with these below mentioned tips. Check out the safety sensors: The safety sensors of a garage door are affixed to the railings on which the overhead door rides approximately six inches off the ground. Their responsibility is to overturn the direction of a closing overhead door if an animal or person walks beneath a closing garage door. To verify, press the control switch to start closing the overhead door. Prior to the door shuts down, put a broom or identical object in front of one of the sensors. Obstructing the beam should make the door stop instantly & reverse. If your door does not reverse, call a professional who offer specialized garage door opener repair in Ottawa to examine the door opener & make any required repairs or tuning. 

  3. No free rides: While it may look like fun to children to ride up the overhead door while hanging onto the door knob, that is a big NO. Let your kids know that the overhead door isn’t a toy. Keep overhead door opener remotes out of the reach of kids: Hide remotes from kids & ensure the wall control for the overhead door opener is at least five feet from the ground so young kids cannot reach it.  Test the force: The door must stop if you try to push it down when it is rising or push up on the bottom of the door as it is lowering. If it does not, you might be able to fix it yourself by tuning the force settings.

  4. Test the auto-reverse: All overhead door openers manufactured after 1991 should have a reversing system that makes a garage door change direction if it get in contact something in its track. To check the auto-reverse, open the overhead door & put a full roll of paper towels on its side below the center of the door. Afterward push the switch to close the overhead door. The door must reverse when it get in contact with the paper towel. If not, tune the door’s downward force or call a professional to take care of it.  Whether you are looking for garage door opener repair or garage door broken cable repair in Ottawa you can always count on the service offered by Canadian Doors.
