Maintenance
A standard garage door is subject
to conditions of operation and environment. Consequent failure
of the product will occur if the following conditions exist:
-
Never close the door where
an obstruction exists within the opening.
-
Never open the door too
fast making the door open past the top of the opening.
-
Never "ride" the
door while it is operating.
-
Never force the door to
operate. If it does not operate smoothly, something is
wrong.
-
Lubricate all rollers, hinges,
springs, locks and bearings once every 3 months.
-
CHECK for loose nuts and
screws, and tighten accordingly.
-
Have replaced all bent or
worn tracks, brackets, hinges, rollers, or springs immediately.
-
Have spring tension adjusted
by an Authorized Garage Door dealer periodically to keep
the door in balance.
-
Maintain a good coat of
paint on the wood sections.
-
Wash your steel garage door
sections with soap and water.

operator is designed to replace manual operation and control
of a door. If a door can not be easily operated by hand, an

and should never be used as one.

a TRAINED PERSON adjust and service your door prior to having
an opener installed.

maintenance, and testing procedures supplied by the company
installing your automatic opener, or call D&D Doors to
do it for you, because we do it right the first time !
