Garage Door Service & Repair

Both nylon and steel rollers can be used on garage doors, and each type has its advantages and disadvantages.

Nylon rollers are generally quieter than steel rollers, and they are also less likely to cause damage to the garage door tracks over time. They are also resistant to rust and corrosion, which can be a significant advantage in areas with high humidity or salt exposure.

Steel rollers, on the other hand, are generally stronger and more durable than nylon rollers. They can withstand more weight and pressure, making them a better choice for heavier garage doors. However, they are more prone to rust and corrosion, which can cause them to wear out faster over time.

Ultimately, the choice between nylon and steel rollers for your garage door will depend on your specific needs and preferences. If you prioritize quiet operation and long-term durability, nylon rollers may be the better choice. If you have a heavy garage door and need a roller that can withstand more weight and pressure, steel rollers may be the better option.

When it comes to rollers on garage door systems, you have two choices – Nylon or Steel.

Steel rollers can be noisy and they can rust. Sometimes that can result in a roller head snapping off. You might have these rollers on your garage doors today.

Nylon rollers, on the other hand, are extremely quiet. The actual manufacturing process is not 100% nylon either. It’s is a steel roller surrounded by nylon. So you get the best of both solutions.

If you want to replace the garage door rollers at your home or business in Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky, give us a call at (513) 821-5095.

We carry many different types of garage door pulleys.

But since pulleys come in so many different sizes, it may be best to bring the old one with you, or at least a picture of it, and measure the diameter of the pulley.

Or if you know you have a broken pulley and need a quick repair, give us a call at (513) 821-5095 and we’ll stop by to replace it.

The black dust comes from the metal carriage traveling back and forth on the metal rail of the garage door opener. This creates metal shavings that drop on your door as the door travels.

Properly lubricating the rail and carriage assemblies periodically will allow the parts to glide and not grind.

We recommend lithium grease for most units. Be careful not to overdo it if you are doing it yourself.

If you over-lubricate it will end up dripping on your car, your floor, and your garage door.

If you need your garage door serviced, give us a call at (513) 821-5095.

We do not carry torsion springs at the office for over the counter sales. In fact, we don’t know of anyone that does.

Our service department can schedule to replace springs. We sell and install high cycle springs and all of our residential torsion springs come with a 5 year parts AND labor warranty.

Although we carry the most common types of bottom garage door seals (vinyl and rubber) and the aluminum retainers that hold them, keep in mind that some seals are specific to the brand and model door you may have.

If you can e-mail us with pictures of your door and gap, or bring in some pictures, we can offer you our opinion.

Keep in mind that these seals will help with some variance in your floor levels, but if the slope is too severe, you may have to fix the concrete to get a good seal.
