Services for Garage Door Rollers
One of the key pieces of hardware that makes garage doors functional is the garage door roller. Garage door rollers are those metal rod-and-wheel mechanisms that serve to allow garage doors to roll through a set of tracks. As a moving part, garage door rollers are always susceptible to breaking or wearing down. When something like this happens, garage doors will no longer be easy to open and close.
At Buffalo Door Company, a lot of the work we do when providing Denver garage door services relates to all hardware. Yes, that would especially include garage door rollers. With a focus on said rollers, we would like to describe some of our available services.
Roller Repairs
When a door roller breaks or wears down, it’s very unlikely we would be able to repair it. However, we do have the ability to repair tracks through which the door rollers travel. Prior to changing garage door rollers, we would certainly want to inspect the track to determine if the issues relate to the tracks or the rollers themselves.
We do have the ability to repair garage door tracks or provide replacement tracks as needed.
Garage Door Roller Replacement
When a door roller breaks or wears down, it’s very unlikely we would be able to repair it. However, we do have the ability to repair tracks through which the door rollers travel. Prior to changing garage door rollers, we would certainly want to inspect the track to determine if the issues relate to the tracks or the rollers themselves.
As a point of reference, door rollers are usually good for about six (6) to seven (7) years under normal use.
To be very clear, there are a few signs by which you can determine if your rollers are damaged. Those signs include:
- The garage door moving in a jerky motion through the tracks – should always be smooth
- Intermittent jamming of the garage door indicates a possible roller issue
- Visual and auditory signs of damage can be seen or heard upon close inspection
If any of these signs seem present, it would be a good idea to immediately contact a professional garage door service company like Buffalo Door Company. We would gladly come out and inspect your rollers and subsequently recommend a course of action.
If we feel garage door roller replacement is the proper call, that’s what we would recommend. With that being the case, it’s reasonable to assume you won’t know how to replace garage door rollers. If you were to try without experience, the potential for injury and collateral damage would be high. Your best bet would be to let us handle that on your behalf.
As part of the estimate process, we’ll help you choose the proper type of replacement rollers. The options would be:
- Steel rollers with ball bearings – sturdy but noisy
- Steel rollers without ball bearings – short life but quiet
- Nylon rollers – very durable but expensive
- Plastic rollers – affordable but wear out quickly
If we go the replacement route, we can usually change out your rollers and tighten the tracks in a couple of hours, barring complications.
Garage Door Roller Maintenance
There are steps you can take to extend the life of your door rollers. You can also take steps to ensure they move smoothly along the tracks and do so quietly. The secret is lubrication. Applying a lubricant like WD-40 should do the trick. If you so desire, we would be glad to come out on an intermittent basis to inspect and maintain your rollers on your behalf.
