F.A.Q

Quick and efficient garage door service!

Purchasing a new garage door? Here are some frequently asked questions by home owners who are trying to figure which door is the best.

Which springs must I choose

Springs are essential for each mechanism and it's good to get an expert's advice before you buy anything on your own. In fact, it would be best and cheaper to get them from Garage Door Repair Costa Mesa because the technicians can help you pick the right ones for your own door and the right size. Extension springs for garage doors that don't weigh much are excellent but if the door is heavy, you will need a torsion spring.

How to reset an electric garage door opener?

Every opener functions differently but most of them use a similar method to reset. Shut the power first and unplug the opener. Wait for 10 seconds and turn the power back again. Now keep pressing the arrow down button till the door is completely shut and hit the 'set' button.

Which door opener system is best to use?

Professionals in Garage Door Repair Costa Mesa advise you to use a system that would fit your needs. Say if you want a quiet system, then a belt drive garage door opener would be best for you. But if you want something of low maintenance, the best garage door opener would be a screw drive one.

What is the headroom?

Headroom is defined as the distance between the top of your garage door to either the top of the ceiling or the nearest surface that is in the way. The amount of headroom will depend on the way your garage is constructed, so be sure to keep that in mind whenever you choose a new garage door.
