Signs Your Garage Door Needs a Tune-Up
Your garage door works hard every day, but like anything mechanical, it needs regular care to keep running smoothly. Ignoring small issues now can lead to bigger, more expensive problems down the road. If you’re noticing any of these signs, it might be time to schedule a garage door tune-up with Milestone Garage.
Slow or Delayed Response
Your garage door should open and close smoothly and consistently. If there’s a hesitation when you press the button or it seems sluggish, worn-out parts or misalignment could be the culprit.
Uneven or Jerky Movement
A garage door that shakes, wobbles, or moves in an unsteady way isn’t just an inconvenience—it could mean the door is off balance or has loose hardware. Left unchecked, this can cause premature wear on critical components.
Loud Noises That Weren’t There Before
A well-maintained garage door shouldn’t sound like a rollercoaster. If you’re hearing grinding, squeaking, or rattling, your rollers, hinges, or springs might need lubrication or adjustment.
The Door Won’t Close All the Way
If your garage door stops short or reverses unexpectedly, your safety sensors might be out of alignment, or your springs could be losing tension. A tune-up ensures your door closes securely every time.
Worn or Cracked Weather Stripping
The rubber seal at the bottom of your garage door keeps out drafts, pests, and moisture. If it’s cracked or brittle, replacing it helps protect your home and everything inside your garage.
The Door Feels Heavy or Hard to Lift Manually
Even with an automatic opener, your garage door should still be easy to lift manually. If it feels heavier than usual, your springs may need adjusting—or worse, they’re on the verge of breaking.
The Auto-Reverse Safety Feature Isn’t Working
Safety sensors prevent the door from closing on objects, pets, or people. If your sensors aren’t responding, it’s a serious safety risk. Our technicians will test, clean, and realign them during a tune-up.
A well-maintained garage door lasts longer, runs smoother, and keeps your home safe. If you’ve noticed any of these warning signs, call Milestone Garage today to schedule your tune-up!
What’s Included in Our Garage Door Maintenance Service?
At Milestone Garage, we believe in keeping small issues from becoming big problems. Our garage door maintenance service is designed to catch wear and tear early, extend the life of your system, and keep everything running safely and smoothly. Here’s what we include in every tune-up:
✔ Full-System Safety Inspection
We carefully check your springs, cables, rollers, tracks, and opener to make sure everything is working properly. A worn or damaged part can lead to bigger garage door issues, and we’re here to stop that from happening.
✔ Precision Lubrication
Moving parts need proper lubrication to reduce friction, noise, and unnecessary strain. We apply high-quality lubricant to hinges, rollers, bearings, and springs to keep your door opening and closing as it should.
✔ Balance & Alignment Adjustment
A misaligned garage door can put stress on your opener and other components, causing premature wear. We test the door’s balance and make any necessary adjustments so it moves evenly and smoothly.
✔ Tightening & Securing Hardware
Over time, constant movement can loosen nuts, bolts, and brackets. We go through your system piece by piece, tightening everything to ensure your door is safe and secure.
✔ Safety Sensor Testing
Your garage door’s auto-reverse feature is essential for protecting your family and belongings. We check the alignment and responsiveness of your safety sensors, making sure they stop the door if anything is in the way.
✔ Opener Functionality Check
Your garage door opener does the heavy lifting. We test the motor, remote controls, keypads, and backup battery (if applicable) to ensure reliable performance every time you press the button.
✔ Weather Seal Inspection
The seal at the bottom of your garage door keeps out drafts, dust, and pests. We check for cracks or wear and recommend a replacement if needed to protect your home and garage.

How Often Should You Schedule Garage Door Maintenance?
Just like your car needs routine oil changes, your garage door needs regular maintenance to keep it running safely and smoothly. We recommend a professional tune-up at least once a year to catch small issues before they turn into costly repairs.
Annual Maintenance for Peace of Mind
Your garage door is one of the hardest-working parts of your home, opening and closing thousands of times a year. Regular maintenance ensures everything stays aligned, lubricated, and working properly, so you’re not caught off guard by a sudden breakdown.
High-Use Garage? Consider Twice a Year
If you use your garage as your main entryway or have multiple vehicles coming and going daily, your door experiences even more wear and tear. In these cases, scheduling maintenance every six months can help extend the life of your system and prevent unexpected failures.
Look Out for Warning Signs
Even if you stick to a maintenance schedule, pay attention to changes in how your garage door operates. If you notice loud noises, slow movement, or uneven closing, it’s time for a tune-up—even if your annual checkup isn’t due yet.
A little maintenance goes a long way in preventing major repairs. Stay ahead of problems and keep your garage door in top shape with a routine service from Milestone Garage. Call today to schedule your next tune-up!
The Cost of Garage Door Maintenance & Financing Options
Preventative maintenance is one of the smartest investments you can make for your home. Regular tune-ups help prevent costly breakdowns, extend the life of your system, and ensure your garage door operates safely year-round.
Affordable Maintenance for Long-Term Savings
The cost of routine garage door maintenance is minimal compared to major repairs or full replacements. By catching small issues early—like worn-out springs, misaligned tracks, or loose hardware—you avoid unexpected breakdowns and expensive emergency repairs down the road.
Financing Options Available Through GreenSky
We understand that home maintenance expenses can add up, which is why we offer flexible financing options through GreenSky. If your garage door needs unexpected repairs or a major service, you don’t have to put it off—our financing solutions help you get the work done now and pay over time.

We know Dallas homeowners have questions when it comes to maintaining their garage doors. Below are some of the most common ones we hear.
How often should I schedule garage door maintenance?
We recommend a professional tune-up once a year to keep your garage door operating smoothly and safely. If your door is used frequently or has had past issues, twice a year may be best. Regular maintenance helps catch small problems before they turn into expensive repairs.

Can I perform garage door maintenance myself?
There are a few simple steps you can take, like keeping the tracks clear of debris and occasionally lubricating rollers and hinges with a garage door-safe lubricant. However, a professional tune-up ensures everything is properly adjusted, aligned, and inspected for safety—something DIY maintenance can’t always guarantee.
