A small amount of lubrication can go a long way in keeping your door operating well. Use a spray lubricant to grease up the door opener’s chain, hinges, rollers and tracks. This helps prevent noise and cleans the drive screw of dust particles.

If your sectional door is imbalanced, it will have to work harder to function and won’t last very long. Keep its balance in check by pulling the release handle on the automatic opener, then manually lift the door so it is about halfway open. If the door doesn’t stay in place it means that the spring is worn out. Get in touch with a professional to adjust the system.
