What are Overhead Garage Doors?
Compared to traditional swinging or sliding garage doors, overhead garage doors lift straight up and slide into the ceiling space, providing a more efficient use of space. They rely on tracks, torsion springs, and rollers to open and close the door. This design eliminates the need for extra clearance in front of the garage, making it easier to access cars, equipment, and pedestrians, especially in homes with limited driveway space.
Regular inspections and timely repairs are crucial to keep these doors functioning smoothly and prevent more significant problems. Our team at The Woodlands Garage Door Service is experienced in diagnosing and fixing common overhead door issues. Whether it’s a simple adjustment or a more complex repair, we’re here to help you maintain the reliability of your overhead garage door.
