Nashville is hot and humid for most of the year, so garage door hardware wears quickly and the lubricant on bearings and moving parts thins out within weeks.

How frequently garage doors and garage door openers should be serviced differs greatly by climate type, reports International Door Association. For Nashville, more frequent service than every few years is required.

Most homes in Nashville can benefit from having their doors serviced on an annual basis. During the service visit to your home, your technician will check the spring tension, check the balance, inspect the condition of the rollers and hinges, and the cables. Your technician also tests the safety reversal so the door stops and reverses correctly. Multi-tenant homes with high use of doors throughout the day may require more frequent service.
Regular annual checks on the spring tension and balance, condition of the rollers and hinges, wear of bottom seals and safety reversal function can reveal minor problems before they become major ones. A cracked roller or a hinge slowly coming loose is a small repair if found early but a major one if found too late. Booking an annual garage door repair Nashville TN tune-up is a small inconvenience when compared to the door failing on a cold January morning.

The door reverses before fully seating for safety reasons and this feature should not be disabled.
