Q: Do I have to have sensors on my garage door?

• <div><p>If you <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-open-garage-door-manually.htm">open your garage manually</a>, you don&rsquo;t need sensors. If you have an automatic garage door opener, sensors are required by law. The <a href="https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2018/07/13/2018-14909/safety-standard-for-automatic-residential-garage-door-operators">federal law UL 325</a> mandates that all residential garage door openers in the U.S. must include sensors. Designed to prevent accidents and reduce the risk of entrapment, the sensors should be able to reverse the motion of the garage door within two seconds of detecting an obstruction. The sensors are there to keep you, your family, and your belongings safe from a door that might otherwise come down too hard or too fast. </p></div>

Q: What’s the best way to maintain a garage door?

• <div><p>The best way to maintain a garage door and avoid issues is to hire someone to do a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-my-garage-door-need-annual-tune.htm">garage door tune-up,</a> check the remote opener, and service the main system components, like the springs, chains, and track. Schedule maintenance service once every two years for $100 to $200. You can also <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/diy-garage-door-maintenance.htm">DIY garage door maintenance,</a> like washing and waxing the door and applying lubricant to hinges and rollers regularly.</p></div>

Q: Where is most heat lost in a garage?

• <div><p>Most heat in a garage is lost through air leaks in windows, doors, and walls. This is especially true if the walls are uninsulated, which is common in garages. Consider insulating your garage before installing a garage heater to ensure the heat it generates isn&rsquo;t wasted, making it less efficient.</p></div>

Q: Can you use propane heaters in a garage?

• <div><p>Indoor propane heaters are safe to use in a garage. You may be able to use an outdoor propane heater inside a garage in some instances,<b> as long as the garage door remains open</b> and there&rsquo;s constant airflow to allow the carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide to escape. Other garage heaters include electric heaters and gas heaters.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take a painter to paint a garage door?

• <div><p>While it depends on door condition, the painter&rsquo;s level of expertise, and weather conditions, it&rsquo;s safe to set aside two to three days to complete this project, especially if you anticipate adding multiple coats of paint, which can take eight to 12 hours to dry. Your professional should be able to provide an estimate for the project timeline.</p></div>
