What A Service Covers

A garage door has more moving parts than most homeowners realise, and they all wear at different rates. Our servicing visits work through the whole system rather than just the obvious symptoms:

Spring tension and coil condition
Cable, drum and pulley condition
Track alignment and door balance
Roller and hinge wear
Opener operation, force settings and noise
Safety sensor alignment and reversing function
Lubrication of moving parts

We'll flag anything that's worn or close to failing and give you an honest, upfront price if it needs attention. There's no pressure to replace parts that still have life left in them.

Why Bother

Why Regular Servicing Is Worth It

Most emergency call-outs we attend, whether it's a snapped spring, a cable off its drum, or a door that's suddenly noisy, involve parts that were already showing warning signs. A yearly check catches this early, which is usually cheaper and a lot less disruptive than an urgent repair.

Who It Suits

Is This Service Right For You?

Never Been Serviced

The door's a few years old and has never had a proper check-up. A first service is a good way to catch small issues early.

Getting Noisier Or Slower

Nothing's broken yet, but the door isn't running like it used to, and you'd rather sort it before it becomes an emergency.

Preparing To Sell Or Rent

Landlords and homeowners getting a property ready for sale or a new tenant, and want everything in safe working order.

Coastal Homes

Servicing For Salt Air Conditions

Homes on the Northern Beaches, and closer to the harbour in Mosman and Cremorne, deal with salt-laden air that speeds up corrosion on springs, tracks and fasteners. A more frequent service schedule, and corrosion-resistant hardware where it makes sense, goes a long way toward keeping a coastal door running smoothly. We can set up a maintenance schedule that suits your property.

Our Process

What A Service Visit Involves

Full Inspection

We work through springs, cables, tracks, rollers, hinges, the opener and safety sensors, checking each against normal wear for the door's age.

Adjustment & Lubrication

We adjust track alignment and spring tension where needed, and lubricate moving parts to reduce wear and noise.

Safety Testing

We test the auto-reverse function and safety sensors to confirm the door stops and reverses correctly on an obstruction.

Report & Recommendations

We'll let you know what's in good shape and flag anything approaching the end of its life, with an honest, no-pressure price if it needs attention.

FAQ

Servicing Questions

How often should a garage door be serviced?

An annual check-up is a sensible baseline for most homes, more often if the door gets heavy daily use. Regular servicing catches worn parts before they fail.

What's included in a garage door service?

We check springs, cables, tracks, rollers, the opener and safety sensors, lubricate moving parts, and confirm the door is balanced and operating safely.

Can servicing prevent an emergency call-out?

Not always, but most of the urgent faults we attend, including broken springs, snapped cables and worn rollers, give warning signs beforehand that a routine check would usually catch.

Do coastal homes need more frequent servicing?

Generally yes. Salt air on the Northern Beaches and harbourside suburbs accelerates corrosion on springs, tracks and fasteners, so a more frequent check-up is worthwhile for these properties.

My door has never been serviced. Is that a problem?

Not necessarily, but it's common for a door that's never had a check-up to have a few things quietly wearing, like dry rollers or an out-of-balance spring. A first service is a good way to get a clear picture of the door's condition and start on a regular schedule from there.
