Garage door springs play a crucial role in lifting your garage door, which means they are under immense tension. Over time, this tension can cause the springs to wear out or become damaged, necessitating a replacement. A faulty spring can render your garage door inoperable and pose significant safety risks, especially if it breaks while the door is open. Due to the complexity and danger involved in repairing garage door springs, it is strongly recommended that you do not attempt to fix them yourself to avoid serious injury.
Despite being designed to withstand high levels of pressure and tension, garage door springs can still break or become damaged over time. Signs of a damaged spring include the garage door only opening halfway or loose garage door cables. It’s important to contact us for a spring replacement as soon as you notice these signs. Once a spring is broken, you will likely be unable to lift your garage door.
When a garage door spring breaks, it is crucial to replace all the springs on your garage door. This is because the springs work together, and replacing only one will leave the other older spring weaker than the new one. This imbalance can cause the garage door to rise unevenly and potentially come off its track.
Selecting the correct garage door springs for your garage door is not straightforward. Several factors need to be considered, including the door's size, weight, and the type of spring system. Installing inappropriate springs can damage the garage door system's various parts.
Before starting any repair work, we conduct a thorough safety inspection. This ensures that all the hardware and components of the garage door are in proper working condition. By doing this, we can recommend any necessary repairs to other parts and ensure the safety of everyone involved. After completing the repair, we also inspect the garage door to confirm it is safe to use and operates correctly.
Garage door cables are crucial components of a garage door system, regulating its movement up and down. These cables endure significant tension and pressure, and over time, they can weaken and break, leading to malfunctioning doors. At Metro Garage Door Repair, we specialize in addressing these issues to ensure your garage door operates smoothly.
Garage door cables will inevitably face wear and tear. Addressing these issues early can prevent more severe damage and complicated repairs.
Over time, garage door cables weaken and wear out. Old cables are more prone to breaking and losing their robustness. If you notice your cables are aging, it’s essential to replace them to avoid future problems.
Rust can quickly develop on garage door cables, especially in humid or moist environments. Rust compromises the strength of the cables, leading to potential breakage. It’s crucial to replace rusted cables promptly to maintain the door’s functionality.
Cables can become jammed if they get tangled or slip off the turning drum, halting all movement. This can leave you with an inoperable garage door, making it important to address jammed cables immediately.
When cables unwind from the turning drum, they can be challenging to repair. This issue often requires professional intervention to ensure proper reinstallation and functioning. Our team of specialists is highly trained and equipped to handle all cable-related repairs and replacements.
By addressing these common cable issues promptly and efficiently, Metro Garage Door Repair ensures the continued safe and smooth operation of your garage door.

Are you having trouble with your garage door opener? A well-functioning garage door opener enhances your property’s aesthetic appeal and provides convenient access to your garage. However, a malfunctioning opener can be a major inconvenience, requiring you to manually operate the door. At Metro Garage Door Repair, we specialize in both the repair and installation of garage door openers and back our services with a comprehensive warranty.
Over time, your garage door opener may encounter various issues. Often, people spend unnecessary money on new installations when a repair would suffice. Here are some common problems that can be resolved with our repair services:
The gears inside the opener can wear out and break over the years. Grinding noises typically indicate a broken gear.
With extensive use, the garage door chain can become loose, causing noise and reducing efficiency. Addressing this promptly can prevent further damage to your opener.
The motherboard is crucial for the operation of your opener. If your opener isn’t responding to the remote, the motherboard might be faulty.
Safety sensors prevent the door from closing when an obstacle is detected. Damaged sensors can be dangerous, as they might not stop the door or send false signals, preventing the door from closing.
If your wall unit keypad or remote stops working, it might be due to a disruption or debris on the antenna. These devices may need to be reprogrammed or replaced.
Some issues are more complex and may require a new opener installation. Here are situations where a new installation is recommended:
