Some households in Bognor want a keypad by the door for the kids, a second remote for the other car, and an app that says whether the door was left open.

2021 census: what it means at the door

Every square is one home in a hundred.

  • 58 in 100 homes · older homes
  • About 58% of homes in Meaford were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census.Extension springs are common on older doors, and they should carry a safety cable through the middle so a broken spring is held rather than flung. Adding those cables is a small job the technician checks for and offers on any older door he services.
  • Single-detached houses make up about 81% of homes in Meaford (2021 Census).Detached houses often have a room over the garage, a bedroom or an office, which makes the garage door part of the heated envelope. An insulated door, snug weatherstrip and a fresh bottom seal keep that room comfortable and the furnace from working overtime in winter.

Anatomy of a garage door

Drawn forBognor
ScaleNot to scale

The lift cables are thin steel ropes under constant load. Rust, kinks and broken strands show up at the bottom where they meet the bracket, and a cable that gives way drops one side of the door. Replacing them is routine work for us.

  1. Part 1The panels

    Garage Door Panel Replacement

    Rust has crept along the bottom edge of the lowest section. What began as bubbling paint is now a soft, flaking strip, the seal retainer is working loose, and a screwdriver pressed against the worst spot goes through the steel.

  2. Part 2The springs

    Torsion Spring Replacement

    The door drops the last stretch to the floor rather than settling, and when you stop it halfway by hand it slides down instead of staying put. Balance has drifted, and the spring is no longer holding its share of the weight.

  3. Part 3The cables

    Garage Door Cable Replacement

    The cable has wrapped itself around the shaft above the door instead of sitting on its drum. When the opener runs, the door lurches, one side rises before the other, and the top panel twists.

  4. Part 4Tracks and rollers

    Garage Door Roller Replacement

    New springs went in last year and the door balances well, yet it still clicks along the ceiling track like a train over rail joints. The wheels are the originals, worn to an oval, and the noise follows them from one end of the travel to the other.

  5. Part 5The opener

    Garage Door Opener Diagnosis and Repair

    For a few days there was a grinding sound whenever the door started moving. Now the motor spins freely and the door stays exactly where it is.

Your questions, answered

How should I prepare for the appointment?

Move the car out if you can and clear a metre or so in front of the door and along both tracks so the technician can reach the hinges and brackets. Find the door and opener manuals and any earlier repair paperwork. Have every remote and the keypad code to hand. If something has changed lately, be ready to say when and what you noticed first. If the door looks wrong, leave it where it is.

Do you adjust the door as part of the seal work?

Small corrections, yes. If a track bracket needs re-setting or the door needs to come plumb so the fin can meet it evenly, that is done so the new seal is fitted to a door that sits properly. Larger work, such as replacing rollers or a bowed section, is explained and offered as its own job so you can decide on it separately.

I have no key for the outside handle. Can it be made to work?

Yes. The cylinder is removed and either rekeyed to a fresh combination, so any key held by a previous owner is retired, or replaced with a new cylinder carrying the correct tailpiece. New keys are cut and tested in the handle before the technician leaves. If a locked door has to be opened first, the technician confirms your connection to the property as a matter of course.

My door rubs the frame on one side. Is that a track problem?

Often, yes. The vertical track is meant to stand a fraction further from the jamb at the top than the bottom, so the closed door seals on its stop and swings clear as it rises. If a bracket has loosened or the track was set flat to the wood, the door drags along the stop moulding every trip. Resetting the spacing and taper, and tightening the brackets into sound wood, usually ends the rub.
