Experts recommend servicing your garage door opener at least once a year to keep it in optimal condition. Routine maintenance includes lubricating moving parts, checking safety sensors, inspecting the drive system, and tightening loose hardware. If your garage door opener is used multiple times a day, you may benefit from bi-annual inspections to prevent premature wear and tear.
✔ Fact: The International Door Association states that routine maintenance can extend the lifespan of a garage door opener by up to 50% and reduce the likelihood of emergency repairs.
