Garage Door Openers – What Homeowners Should Know?

A garage should be given the same importance as any other security feature of the house.
A garage reflects a lot about the homeowner’s aesthetic sense and adds to the value of the house. Regular repair and maintenance will ensure that it stays in top shape for a long time.
Let’s look at some points that all homeowners should be aware of.
1.    The garage door opener can be installed by following the instruction in the manual. But if you are not sure do call in a reputed garage door services company.
2.    When closing a door with the remote or the control wall panel, ensure that it has closed completely. Wait and ensure that nobody or a pet has not got stuck underneath it, it will just take a few seconds.
3.    If the door is not opening and closing smoothly it may be out of balance and in need of adjustment. If you live in Wall, New Jersey, call an expert from one of the well reputed companies and have him check the door for you.
4.    The answer cannot always be a powerful door opener for a creaky door. Remember no matter how strong a door opener, it is only designed to open well balanced doors.
5.    The photo eye or the sensor should not be more than six inches higher than the floor. If it is higher a pet or a baby could go undetected by the beam.
6.    The wall control panel should be five feet high, in order to be out of the reach of children. Teach your children to not to run under a closing door nor play under it.
