Garage doors can make a variety of noises, each indicating a specific issue. Here are some common sounds and their potential causes:

• Squeaking or Grinding: This often indicates that the rollers or hinges need lubrication or are wearing out.
• Rattling: Loose hardware, such as nuts, bolts, or hinges, can cause a rattling sound when the door is in motion.
• Banging or Thudding: A loud bang usually points to broken springs, which can make it difficult or unsafe to operate the door.
• Popping Sounds: Worn torsion springs or cables may create popping sounds as they strain to support the door.
• Humming or Buzzing: A malfunctioning garage door opener or motor may produce a humming or buzzing sound.

Noisy garage doors are often the result of everyday wear and tear. Here are some of the most common reasons your garage door may be making noise:

• Lack of Lubrication: Over time, the moving parts of your garage door, such as rollers, hinges, and springs, can lose their lubrication, leading to squeaking or grinding sounds.
• Worn Out Rollers: Rollers that have become worn or damaged can create excessive noise as they move along the track.
• Loose Hardware: Components like nuts, bolts, and hinges can come loose over time, causing the door to rattle when in use.
• Broken Springs: If your springs are broken or damaged, they can make loud banging noises and prevent your door from functioning properly.
• Old Garage Door Opener: If your garage door opener is outdated, it may be struggling to lift the door, resulting in buzzing or humming sounds.
