How long does a paint job on a garage door last?

• <div><p>The life span of a newly painted garage door depends on the quality of your paint, the material of the door, and the climate you live in. If you’re confident that you’ll maintain the door as best you can, you can expect the job to last between 5 and 10 years.</p></div>

Is it a good idea to insulate the garage door?

• <div><p>Without a doubt, insulating a garage door is a surefire way to make your home more energy efficient. Not only does insulating your garage door reduce your electric bills, but it also helps protect your valuables inside your garage, all while making for a quieter interior space. </p><p>In regions that drop below 0 degrees Fahrenheit, your car's battery is at risk of malfunctioning in a garage that drops dangerously low. So, homeowners who reside in extremely cold climates can especially benefit from insulating their garages.</p></div>

How do garage door sensors work?

• <div><p>Garage door sensors work by using infrared beams to detect objects in the door’s path. One sensor sends a beam while the other receives it. When the beam is broken—say, by your car or anything else—the sensors signal the door to stop or reverse. It’s all about safety and making sure nothing gets trapped under the door. If they’re misaligned, the beam doesn’t connect, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-does-garage-door-opener-work.htm">the garage door might stay open</a> or close regardless of obstructions. </p></div>

Q: Are garage door springs dangerous?

• <div><p>Since garage door torsion springs have tightly wound coils under massive tension, they can cause serious injury while attempting to service them. A broken spring can also cause the garage to close rapidly, causing injuries. That&rsquo;s why any adjustments or replacements of a torsion spring should only be conducted by a trained professional.</p><p>Extension springs are just as dangerous as torsion springs&mdash;especially when they break. These springs can become projectiles and may cause serious injury or property damage.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to paint a garage floor with a roller or brush?

• <div><p>When you&rsquo;re painting a garage floor, it&rsquo;s best to use a combination of rollers and brushes. You&rsquo;ll want to start with a brush, making a border around the edges where the floor meets the wall. From there you can use a roller, though some people also like to do the entire first coat with a brush because it&rsquo;s easier to work the paint into the textured concrete.</p></div>
