Types of Garage Doors Garage Doors FAQs

Can I replace a garage door myself?

Whilst it is possible to replace a garage door yourself, it is advisable to consult a trusted garage door company. Fitting a new garage door is a challenging process that requires skill and expertise, and any mistakes during the installation process could compromise the safety and functionality of your door.

Here at Shutter Spec Security, our garage door technicians have years of industry experience and can swiftly carry out any garage door replacement, no matter how complex. So, although a DIY installation may seem tempting, it’s best to hire a garage door professional for your peace of mind.

What type of garage door opener should I choose?

The type of garage door opener that you choose depends on the size, weight and style of garage door that you have. Here at Shutter Spec Security, we supply and install automated garage doors from a variety of manufacturers, and our team is always happy to talk you through the range of garage door openers that we have available — simply give us a call.

How can I increase the security of my garage door?

Your garage door is vital for safeguarding your home. If you’d like to increase the security of your garage door, why not consider having your existing garage door automated? Automated garage doors have advanced locking mechanisms that offer an additional layer of security to any home. Furthermore, all modern garage door openers are equipped with rolling code technology to prevent unauthorised access, and many electric garage doors can even be integrated into existing smart home technology to offer garage access at the touch of a button.

Another way to improve the security of your garage door is to schedule regular garage door maintenance. This will ensure the security of your garage door by addressing potential issues before they worsen. If your garage door shows signs of wear and age, it might be time for an upgrade. At Shutter Spec Security, we can carry out a complete garage door replacement to enhance your home’s security.

What should I do if my garage door springs break?

Garage door springs play a crucial role in the safe operation of your garage door. If they break, it’s essential to get in touch with a local garage door professional immediately. Avoid attempting to replace the springs yourself, as any errors can result in severe injuries. The skilled garage door technicians at Shutter Spec Security are highly trained and can swiftly and safely replace your garage door springs to restore your door to full functionality.

How can I maintain the appearance of my garage door?

Garage doors tend to collect dirt over time due to frequent use and being constantly exposed to the elements. To keep your garage door looking its best, give it a gentle wipe down every so often with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they can harm the door’s surface.

For wooden garage doors, maintaining their natural shine may require more attention. Consider restaining your wooden garage door every couple of years; not only does this refresh the colour, but it also provides added protection against weathering.

What should I do if my garage door gets stuck in the open or closed position?

If you have an automated garage door, your first step should be to ensure that the remote and sensors are functioning as they should be — the problem may be as simple as your remote running out of battery! Then, you should check for any obstructions in the track that may impede the movement of the door. Once you’ve confirmed the track is free of debris, you should examine the components of the door — only if it is safe to do so — looking for any broken springs or snapped cables.

If you’re still unsure, the best thing to do is contact your local garage door professional for help. Here at Shutter Spec Security, our experts will respond without delay and we offer a range of garage door repairs that are sure to restore full access in no time.

Are there any safety precautions I should take with my garage door?

To make sure that your garage door is safe to use, you should carry out a quick visual inspection of all garage door components at least once a month. This will ensure that any problems are picked up quickly before they worsen. Here at Shutter Spec Security, we can perform a garage door service, where one of our highly trained garage door technicians will visit your property and thoroughly examine your garage door. Any identified problems will be promptly addressed and preventative maintenance work will be carried out to ensure the continued smooth operation of your garage door. We recommend having your garage door serviced annually.

If you have an automated garage door, you should also keep the remote safe and well away from children to prevent any accidents.

Can I convert my manual garage door into an automatic one?

Yes, most manual garage doors can be converted into an automatic one. Here at Shutter Spec Security, we can assess your existing garage door and determine whether it is suitable for automation. We can then install the motorised opening system, including all the necessary safety measures. Additionally, our team will offer a thorough demonstration so you know just how to operate your new garage door.

What is the average lifespan of a garage door?

The lifespan of your garage door can vary depending on a number of factors, including the style, material, manufacturer and frequency of use. However, when you choose a reliable garage door supplier like Shutter Spec Security, you can expect your garage door to last for around 20-30 years. You can also prolong the life of your garage door by scheduling regular maintenance work, which will identify any issues at an early stage and prevent extensive repairs further down the line.
