Is Your Garage Door Noisy? Here’s How to Quiet It Down
A loud garage door isn’t just annoying—it can be a warning sign that something’s not right. Fortunately, many noise issues are simple to fix.
Here are the most common culprits:
Dry or Rusty Rollers: These can grind or squeak as they move along the track.
Loose Hardware: Screws and bolts can loosen over time and cause rattling.
Lack of Lubrication: Moving parts need regular lubrication—use garage door-specific lubricant, not WD-40.
Worn-Out Hinges or Springs: Old, damaged components can make clunking or banging noises.
Quick Fixes You Can Try:
Tighten all bolts and brackets.
Lubricate rollers, hinges, and springs with a silicone-based spray.
Check for worn-out parts and replace if needed.
