Loose Hinges for Garage Doors is a Recipe for Disaster
Hinged garage doors are the perfect example of functionality meeting convenience. However, they are prone to getting damaged. With time and greater use, you may experience a number of issues:
- Your garage door hinges might become loose
- The hinges might break due to wear and tear
- Your garage door might seem unbalanced due to improper installation
If these instances seem familiar, it’s time to call in the experts. Remember that if your garage door hinge is going haywire for any reason, it can lead to a dangerous situation. This is why you must ensure your garage door’s hinges are in perfect working condition. The best way to do that is to get an expert to assess the current condition of the door and offer the best possible solution.
Before we look at how Penguin Garage Doors can help, let’s understand how garage door hinges work:
Step 1: The hinges are basically a set of metal brackets that connect each panel of the garage door to one another.
Step 2: When these hinges become loose, there’s nothing else that connects the panels to each other, causing the door to fall apart.
Step 3: Additionally, if the ball-bearing rollers are not functioning smoothly, the vibrations resulting from operating the garage door can cause the hinges to also come loose.
When it comes to fixing and installing garage doors and their spring systems, it can be very dangerous and is best done by a professional technician.
