Garage Door Safety Inspection in Eastwood Village, Irvine

Our garage door safety inspection service reviews the condition and balance of your entire system. Because the door depends on many parts working together, we check each one and explain anything worth watching. A complete inspection includes a look at your garage door rollers and cables and an assessment of the springs, with broken spring repair guidance if wear is found.

While the exact findings vary by door, a full inspection generally covers:

• The springs, checked for tension, wear, and remaining life
• The cables and drums, examined for fraying, slack, and correct winding
• The rollers and hinges, checked for smooth movement and secure fit
• The tracks and mounting hardware, inspected for alignment and tight bolts
• The door balance, tested by releasing the opener and lifting by hand
• The photo-eye sensors and auto-reverse, verified to stop and reverse the door as California requires
• The opener, including LiftMaster and Genie units, checked for force settings and smooth travel
• Lubrication of the moving parts with a manufacturer-recommended silicone-based product

• You have never had the door professionally inspected since moving in
• The door has begun to feel heavier or hesitates as it opens and closes
• You notice new sounds, or the door looks slightly uneven
• The safety sensors are dusty or misaligned, or the door does not reverse on contact
• You use the garage as your main entry and rely on the door daily
• It has been more than a year since your last inspection
