How Often Should You Schedule Professional Garage Door Service?

Most doors cycle 1,500 times a year. Service intervals should follow use, not the calendar alone.

The annual baseline

One professional tune-up per year catches spring fatigue, cable wear, and opener drift before they strand you.

Your garage is the main entrance, you have multiple drivers, or the door cycles more than eight to ten times daily.

You hear new grinding or banging, the door hesitates, or it no longer stays put when lifted halfway by hand.

Our 25-point service covers lubrication, hardware tightening, spring tension, cable and roller inspection, sensor alignment, and safety testing.

MG Garage Door Service serves Lincolnwood and surrounding areas with same-day and 24/7 emergency service.
