Noblesville Garage Door Parts

Torsion springs are mounted on a bar above the door and are generally preferred in Noblesville for their superior balance and longer lifecycle of 10,000 to 15,000 cycles. Extension springs run along the upper tracks and are more common in older homes but they are more prone to uneven wear during Indiana's heavy snow loads. Torsion systems provide a smoother, safer operation which is critical for the heavy insulated doors required to maintain energy efficiency in our region.

We recommend a bi-annual lubrication schedule once in the spring and once in the fall to prepare your door for Indiana's extreme seasonal shifts. Use a high-quality silicone or lithium-based spray on all moving parts including hinges, rollers and springs but avoid the tracks themselves as lubricant can attract dirt. This preventive maintenance keeps the metal supple and reduces the friction caused by the expansion and contraction of components.
