Your garage door is made up of many moving parts that we don’t recommend you fix yourself, like the springs, tracks and cables. But, there are some fixes any homeowner can do, like reprograming your opener, remote and keyless entry pad. 

Your garage door is probably the hardest working door in your home. It opens and closes each morning for your commute and then throughout the day for odd jobs like taking out the trash, grabbing the mail or getting out a bicycle. But every time your door opens and closes, the springs feel the wear and tear until one day, they break.

Dear Santa, The holiday season is nearly here, and I have my list ready. First, I want peace throughout the world. Second, I want to end hunger, all hunger, everywhere. Thirdly, I wish health and happiness for my family and those I love. Lastly, I want a new garage door from Overhead Door Company of Sioux City and Yankton.

There’s a little-thought-about part of your garage door that does a pretty big job – it’s your door’s weather seal. This narrow piece of rubber or silica runs along the bottom of your door and seals it from whatever is lurking outside – snow, rain, sub-arctic breezes and so on. Given its vital task, this part of your door should be given some real consideration, especially in the fall. 

The weather seems great right now, but it can turn-on-dime and be cold with even ice and snow. Don’t wait until it is miserable outside to complete some much-needed garage projects. Get them done now before fall arrives.
