Garage Door Roller Replacement

Garage Door Roller Repair Services

When garage door rollers are near the end of their lifecycle, which is 10,000 cycles, there will be a few key signs that they need to be replaced. Garage door rollers typically last 7-10 years, depending on the type of roller that is installed. Plastic rollers will need to be replaced sooner because they are not as durable as steel or nylon rollers. Keep an eye out for signs of aging, or normal wear and tear, which will indicate if it is time to replace your garage door rollers. 

When to Replace Garage Door Rollers

Recognizing signs that your garage door rollers may be broken or nearing the end of their lifespan is crucial for maintaining optimal performance. If you notice your garage door emitting unusually loud noises during operation or experiencing pronounced vibrations, these are signs that your rollers may be in need of replacement. Additionally, if your garage door appears to be jerky or uneven as it opens or closes, or if it struggles to move smoothly along its tracks, these could also indicate roller issues. Make sure your garage door runs smoothly with experts from Modern Day Garage that can help with your garage door roller issues. 

• Loud Noise: If your garage door begins to make noise, this is a sign that something could be broken. If there are consistent, loud noises, such as grinding, squeaking or clicking, this could indicate an underlying issue with the garage door rollers. Steel rollers can get rusty over time, which can cause noise as the door is opened or closed. Proper lubrication can help with the noise, and if the issue does not subside, then replacement might be necessary. Staying aware of the noises your garage door is making can ensure that it will run smoothly and operate quietly in the future. 
• Vibrating Door: Garage doors are supposed to operate smoothly, providing easy access to your home, but also security. If your garage door begins to vibrate when opening and closing it, the rollers could need to be replaced. Vibrating garage doors are a sign of worn out or damaged rollers, which could lead to further complications in the future. If you suspect that your garage door is vibrating, it could be out of alignment, or be in need of quick repair.
