The same goes for the drive gear and wiring inside the opener.

Concord, located in the Carolina Piedmont region, receives weather from both north and south. The high humidity between May and September comes from Gulf moisture pushing inland. That humidity is hard on garage door parts. Steel springs corrode faster in humid air. Wood door panels warp and swell as they cycle through wet summers and dry stretches. When temperatures fall sharply in January or February, bottom seals can crack and gap. People relocating here from further south are often caught off guard by how pronounced that seasonal swing can be.
