Kirkland is a lakefront community located on the east shore of Lake Washington. Here the weather is wet and cold for 7-8 months of the year, commencing in October and concluding in April.
Moisture penetrates the bottom seals of sectional doors, causes the wood door sections to expand, and promotes corrosion to the torsion spring coils, cables, and wire(s). We see similar door problems each year. A door that operated properly all summer long begins to bind or open unevenly as the rains of winter return. The International Door Association publishes recommended maintenance, and here that means inspecting and lubricating the seals before the wet weather starts. The housing stock here skews toward split-levels and two-car garages built between the late 1970s and early 1990s, and those doors are often running original hardware. On garage door repair Kirkland WA calls to homes of that era, we often find extension spring systems rather than torsion bars, and tracks that have shifted as foundations settled over decades. HOA rules in several Kirkland neighborhoods also restrict exterior panel colors and materials, so when a replacement is on the table, our techs confirm what the covenant allows before quoting.
