Your garage door enhances your home’s curb appeal, is functional, and keeps your items secure. As time goes on, however, garage door replacement becomes a real possibility. Look for these significant signs that you need to replace your garage door.

Three Signs You Need a Garage Door Replacement

  • Sagging is a red flag for wood doors. Wooden garage doors can rot, decompose, and deteriorate; sagging can affect other garage doors. If you see sagging, call our garage door replacement experts at 31-W Insulation as soon as possible.
  • Noise or shaking points to trouble ahead. You may need a replacement if your garage door is noisier than usual when opening and closing or shakes. Even if it doesn’t have to be replaced immediately, you’ll want to have a garage door company assess it for repairs.
  • Your door is older than 30 years or from another design era. Old garage doors have two strikes against them – they are not up to today’s safety standards and make your home look old.
  • The garage door doesn’t close or open easily. If your garage door is getting harder and harder to open and close, replace it. Think of it as another significant appliance in your home. Would you repair or replace a refrigerator that couldn’t keep food cold?
