Q: How do I keep my garage from freezing?

• <div><p>You can prevent your garage from freezing by applying techniques like sprinkling salt onto the garage floor, installing a garage heater, shoveling snow outside the door, and more. Additional methods of preventing your garage from freezing over is to seal all potential air gaps, replace weatherstripping, and adding insulation to the surrounding walls to keep the heat from escaping.</p></div>

Q: Is it hard to install a garage door?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, it is difficult to install a garage door. It&rsquo;s a heavy object that poses a danger if it falls. If you are an experienced DIY-er, and you get help from another person with experience with this project, it is possible to install a garage door. However, manual doors are simpler to install than automatic doors because they are lighter and don&rsquo;t require the installation of cables or a motor. It&rsquo;s always best to hire a professional garage door contractor to install these, due to the safety risks involved and to ensure it&rsquo;s done correctly. </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 can I open the garage door when the power is out?

• <div><p>There are three ways to open the garage door when the power is out. One is to invest in a solar panel and battery system or generator backup power. Another method is to use the quick-release key to disconnect the garage door from the garage door opener. You can also use the key to your house to wait out the power outage and reset the garage door opener once the power returns.</p><p>If your garage door key is inside your home and you don&rsquo;t have a spare key on hand to access your entry points, then <a href="https://www.angi.com/companylist/locksmiths.htm">call a locksmith</a>.</p></div>

We left the garage door open and went to work. They came, did the work, slipped the invoice under the back door, and closed the garage door. The new springs completely resolved the problem with the doors sticking as they opened. we mailed them a check.
