  1. How To Fix Your Garage Door That Is Not Working Properly? Repairs and maintenance of garage doors can be a challenging task. If you are thinking that it is not that difficult and can be done quickly, then you are mistaken. It involves many factors and needs to be done cautiously. You cannot repair or service them just like that; you need to have the right knowledge and tools for the job. A minor mistake can lead to serious problems in the future. That is why it is recommended that you leave these services to professionals who know what they are doing. Garage repair Lexington KY is one such professional service that can help you in this situation. a) Check the springs and cables The springs and cables are the basic parts of your garage door. These parts have a long service life and are durable. However, if the springs are loose, the door will not be able to open and close properly. So, the first thing you need to do is check the springs and tighten them if required. The cables should also be checked for any damage or fraying. If there is any damage, you can replace them with new ones. b) Check the tracks The tracks are the rails that guide the movement of the door. If any damage has occurred to the tracks, they need to be replaced as soon as possible. Otherwise, they will break and your garage door will not function. Here are a few signs that indicate the tracks need to be fixed or replaced: The garage door doesn’t close properly, the door gets stuck while opening or closing, the tracks are uneven, or the door makes a loud or unusual sound when opening or closing. c) Broken motor The motor is a vital part of your garage door. The mechanism handles the opening and closing of the door. A broken engine is a common problem and needs to be fixed as soon as possible. Damaged motors are caused by several issues. They can be due to lightning, or excess weight on the door. If your garage door motor has broken, you will notice that the door does not lower completely or does not lift completely. At this time, you can contact garage repair Lexington KY, and fix it. d) Fix the hinges

  2. The hinges of your garage door are responsible for keeping your door attached to the wall. If the hinges of your door have become loose, they need to be tightened. Loose hinges are a common issue, and a simple tightening of the screws can fix the problem. Another issue that can occur with your hinges is the breakage of one or more hinges. If this happens, you will need to replace the broken hinges with new ones. e) Check the sensors An obstacle detection system is integrated into the door to ensure safe passage. If these sensors have become faulty and they are not working properly, the door might not close properly or close at all. You can check the sensors and clean them with a soft cloth if they are dusty. If the sensors are broken, you can contact garage repair Lexington KY, and find its replacement.
