Garage Door Myths
Myth #1: A noisy garage door is still working fine.
Noise is the first sign of a problem.
Different sounds indicate different issues.
Myth #2: WD-40 is a good lubricant for garage doors.
Use only garage door-grade silicone lubricant.
WD-40 removes natural oils from metal, causing faster wear.
Myth #3: Lubricating the track reduces noise.
Only helps if you have metal rollers.

Garage Door Spring Replacement
Common Signs You’ll Need Garage Door Spring Replacement
Broken springs can often go unnoticed until the door stops functioning. Here are some signs that indicate garage door spring replacement will be needed:
- Loud Noise: A loud crashing sound can occur when springs unwind, even if the door doesn’t fall.
- Visible Gap in the Spring: Springs should be tightly wound without gaps. A visible break indicates damage.
- Bending at the Door’s Top Panel: A bent panel is a strong sign of broken springs.
- Fast Falling Door: Without proper counterbalance, the door will fall quickly.
- Crooked Movement: The door may open unevenly or move awkwardly along the tracks.
- Loose Cables: Slack cables hanging from the ceiling often accompany broken springs.
Top Causes of Broken Garage Door Springs
Garage door springs can break over time due to several reasons, including:
- Rust: Corrosion reduces efficiency and shortens lifespan.
- Wear and Tear: Most springs last about 10,000 cycles of use.
- Lack of Maintenance: Proper upkeep, like lubrication and balance checks, extends spring life.
Regular garage door tune-ups, like those provided by AAA Garage Doors, can ensure your system remains in excellent condition. Routine lubrication and seasonal inspections can prevent premature failure.
Types of Garage Door Springs
Garage door springs are essential for smooth operation and come in two main types:
- Torsion Springs: These twist to operate and are mounted above the door. They are more efficient and safer, commonly used in newer garage doors.
- Extension Springs: These expand and compress, located along the upper tracks. They are more common in older systems but often replaced with torsion springs for better performance.

Maintenance
Roller Maintenance
Like any other components in a garage door, rollers also have cycle ratings. This means that their life expectancy is limited to a number of cycles. Every time your garage door goes up and down, it completes a cycle. On average, a residential garage door runs five cycles per day, amounting to at least 1,500 cycles annually.
When Should You Replace Garage Door Rollers?
You can review your garage door system’s manual to determine the lifespan of its components, including the rollers. By doing a simple calculation, you can estimate when you should replace your garage door rollers. However, the lifespan and quality of the rollers depend on their material. Here are the common types of rollers:
- Plastic rollers – These are the most basic type and typically last for a few years.
- Steel rollers with no ball bearings – Considered builder-grade rollers, these also last only a few years.
- Steel rollers with ball bearings – With regular maintenance, these can last about 10 to 15 years but tend to be noisy.
- Nylon rollers – Depending on quality, nylon rollers last between 12 to 20 years. While more expensive, they offer the best performance and the quietest operation.
What Are the Signs That Your Garage Door Rollers Need Replacing?
Garage door accidents are a serious concern, and many homeowners only notice issues when their door stops functioning. Regular maintenance can prevent costly repairs and ensure your safety. Here are some signs that your rollers need replacement:
- Excessive Vibration – A smoothly operating garage door should not shake or vibrate. If you notice excessive movement, your rollers are likely worn out.
- Misalignment – The rollers help keep the door aligned. If the door frequently gets off track, it’s time for a replacement.
- Excessive Noise – Steel rollers can rust, making the door noisy. Lubrication may help, but in many cases, a replacement is necessary.
Why Should You Replace Defective Garage Door Rollers?
Even if your rollers seem to be functioning, they should be inspected at least twice a year. On average, rollers should be replaced every seven years. Ignoring worn-out rollers can lead to additional strain on other, more expensive components.
Routine inspections and maintenance help extend the life of your garage door system. Our expert technicians at AAA Garage Doors and Gates will check all aspects of your system to ensure optimal performance. If we recommend roller replacement, trust that we’re doing so to prevent costlier future repairs.
How Do You Fix a Broken Garage Door Roller?
Garage door roller maintenance is not a DIY-friendly task. Without the right knowledge and safety precautions, you risk serious injury or damage to your garage door system.
For instance, removing the wrong bolt can cause the entire door to collapse. Incorrect installation puts unnecessary stress on other components, leading to further damage. Garage doors can weigh over 300 pounds, posing a significant safety risk if mishandled.
Moreover, roller issues often stem from underlying track or alignment problems. A temporary fix won’t solve the root cause. When you choose AAA Garage Doors and Gates, our technicians conduct a full system inspection to address all issues properly.
