Quality garage doors are a long-lasting investment for your home but depending on the age and condition of your doors, the time for replacement may be near. Below are a few of the top signs that you may need new garage doors.
- Damages. Visible damages are a sure sign that you need new garage doors. However, if the damages seem minor, you may not realize how much of an issue you actually have. For example, a small bend or dent at the bottom of your door may not seem significant, but it still provides enough room for rodents or other pests to get into your garage. If the bend is large enough, a burglar or vandal may even be able to squeeze through, raising a security concern.
- Slow speed. Does opening or closing your garage door feel like a long, drawn-out process? If so, replacement may be necessary. As time goes by, the components operating your garage doors break down. Slow opening and closing are signs that your garage doors may be reaching the end of their lifespan and will likely need to be replaced soon.
- Frequent repairs. Repair jobs from a garage door repair company that you trust can help extend the lifespan of your garage doors, but eventually, the time will come when repairs are no longer sufficient. If your garage doors constantly need repair jobs, it’s most likely in your best interests to replace them with new ones.
