Preventative Commercial Garage Door Repair

When referring to commercial garage doors, what typically pops in your mind are the large doors used for loading and unloading at stores, shipping warehouses, industrial and manufacturing facilities. Smaller companies like auto shops and restaurants use them as well. No matter the size and just like standard garage doors for residential use, commercial doors require regular maintenance to avoid costly repairs.

Regular maintenance usually consists of replacing parts that, over time due to constant use, are worn and broken that can cause the door to not function properly or at all. Many of the commercial garage door parts that require replacement include springs, automatic openers, panels, sensors, chains, keypads and the list can go on. Some of these parts may seem like simple parts to replace that contribute to the operation of the door, it is often more complicated that it appears; and as a business owner or manager, you’ll want to have the confidence knowing a professional garage door technician completed the repair properly and will guarantee their work.

Commercial Garage Door Panels
