​When was the last time you had your garage door serviced? Most homeowners don’t think about preventive garage door service, but think about how often you use your garage door. How many times a day do you open and shut it? How old is it? When you really think about it, this is the one door in your house that gets used the most. For this reason alone, it’s important to contact a garage door specialist in Alpharetta for garage door servicing at least once or twice a year to avoid unexpected and costly garage door repair service.

Your garage door opener is a tremendous convenience, but there are instances, such as when you lose power, that could result in an inability to open your garage door. Because of the potentially dangerous situation that could create, most modern garage doors have an emergency release that can allow anyone trapped inside the ability to open the door manually without power.
