Family garages in Jarvis are busy places, with kids ducking under the door and a bike wheel always somewhere near the track. We set the auto-reverse so it trips on a light touch, aim the photo-eyes properly, and make sure the door closes fully every time so the house stays secure behind it. The same crew covers Townsend and Varency.

ServiceTorsion Spring Replacement
Garage doors with extension springs need pulleys and safety cables in good condition. Worn pulleys chew through cables, and missing safety cables are a hazard. We renew these parts alongside the springs whenever we work on that style of door.
Part 1The panels
Rust has crept along the bottom edge of the lowest section. What began as bubbling paint is now a soft, flaking strip, the seal retainer is working loose, and a screwdriver pressed against the worst spot goes through the steel.
Part 2The springs
You heard a sharp bang from the garage, and now the opener hums for a second and gives up. The door lifts a few centimetres at most, then settles back down as if something very heavy is holding it in place.
Part 3The cables
After years of slushy winters the cables look thinner near the bottom brackets, with rust streaks running down the door where they attach. The door still works, but the frayed wires catch your glove when you brush past.
Part 4Tracks and rollers
One of the little wheels along the edge of the door has a chunk missing, another sits crooked in its hinge, and there is a fine grey dust on the floor under the track where plastic has been wearing away.
Part 5The opener
The door goes up perfectly. Coming down is the trouble: partway to the floor it stops, climbs back to the top, and the light on the opener blinks at you.

Request a visitYes. A double garage with two doors, a detached garage plus an attached one, or a row of units in a townhouse complex can be worked through in a single appointment, with a separate record for each door and opener. Property managers often schedule the whole set each spring so every report carries the same date. Tell the office how many doors there are and where, so the time is set aside.
A silicone-based or white lithium garage door lubricant, sold for the purpose. Penetrating oils and general sprays are thin, attract dust and are gone in weeks; heavy grease traps grit. For the rubber bottom seal and weatherstrip, use only a silicone spray, since petroleum products attack rubber and make it brittle. Nylon rollers with sealed bearings need no lubricant, while ones with an exposed bearing can need a touch where their own maker calls for it. A small amount on each point, worked in by moving the door, is enough.
Opener makers ask for it to be disabled or removed, and the door industry's guidance agrees. Disabled can mean the bars are fixed back or taken out while the handle stays for appearance, or a snap latch is held open on its catch. Keeping a lock live for outages calls for a manufacturer-approved interlock, not a label alone, since a reminder and routine are not treated as a substitute for removing or disabling the bars.
A picture of the full spring assembly above the door, showing the centre bracket, both drums and how many springs there are, tells the technician a great deal. Add a close shot of the broken spring gap and any tag or colour marking on the cones, a photo of the cables at the bottom brackets, and one of the opener. These help confirm the door's configuration so the right springs and hardware are on the truck.
