Is it dangerous to quickly thaw a garage door?

• <div><p>If you take caution around fragile garage parts, thawing methods shouldn’t cause problems. Avoid using direct sources of heat too close to the garage door, especially rubber parts.</p><p>Another spot to avoid heating is the garage door spring. This powerful metal spring can become very cold in winter. Applying heat to a cold spring increases the chances it could break. </p></div>

Q: What is the average lifespan of garage doors?

• <div><p>A garage door should last 30 years, give or take, before it needs replacing, so your panels should last for around that long as well. However, you should replace your garage door panels sooner if the door doesn&rsquo;t function smoothly if one of the panels gets visibly damaged, or if an issue with a panel is creating a security issue.</p></div>

Q: How do you burglar-proof a garage door?

• <div><p>Always lock the door that separates your garage and your home. However, garage doors are seldom entrance points for thieves. It takes quite a bit of work and noise to pry open a garage door, so thieves often opt for windows or unlocked doors. Unless they have access to the motor which controls the door, as long as it's functioning properly you shouldn't worry too much about it.</p></div>

Q: What kind of paint does a garage door need?

• <div><p>The paint type your garage door needs depends on the door's material. Aluminum garage doors generally require exterior acrylic paint, while vinyl and wood doors usually call for exterior latex paint. Pros typically recommend latex and oil-based paint for steel doors. Acrylic latex paint is a great option if you need something that&rsquo;s kid and pet-friendly as well as eco-friendly.</p></div>

Q: What is the most secure door for a garage?

• <div><p>There is a reason many commercial garages and storage facilities have roller garage doors. They stand out as one of the most secure options due to their unique design. The compact installation and absence of visible leverage points on the sturdy aluminum curtain make them a formidable obstacle for potential intruders. </p></div>

We called them on a Saturday for a leak in our garage/furnance and they came right out. They spent time troubleshooting and solving the problem. When they had to return that same day because what they did still didn't work, they were prompt and professional and didn't charge us extra!
