Can road salt from Greenwood winters damage my garage door?

Yes, road salt tracked into your garage by your vehicle can be highly corrosive to the bottom seal and the lower metal panels of your door. Over time, salt buildup can cause the metal to rust and the rubber weatherstripping to degrade prematurely. We recommend Greenwood residents rinse the bottom of their garage door and the concrete threshold periodically during the winter to remove salt residue and prevent corrosion.

What should I do if my garage door goes off its tracks?

If your garage door is off its tracks, you should stop using it immediately and avoid trying to force it closed, as this can cause the door to fall or damage the tracks further. This issue often occurs in Greenwood when a cable snaps or the door hits an object like a trash can while closing. A professional technician will need to reset the rollers, check the alignment of the tracks, and ensure the cables are properly tensioned before the door is safe to operate.
