Centennial, CO – April 19, 2025 – Summer’s high temperatures and increased home‑entrance traffic put extra strain on overhead doors. Elite Garage Doors, the go‑to experts for Centennial Garage Door Repair and Automatic Door Repair Centennial, share their top recommendations to keep your garage operating safely and smoothly all season long.
Why Summer Maintenance Matters

– Thermal Expansion: Metal tracks and hardware can warp in heat, causing misalignment.
– Dry Components: Lubricants break down faster in the sun, leading to squeaks and friction.
– Safety Sensor Glare: Bright sunlight may disrupt photoelectric sensors, preventing proper auto-reverse.
– Seal Integrity: Rubber weather seals crack under UV exposure, reducing energy efficiency.

“A little preventive care now can save you from major repair bills later,” advises Gabriel Nave of Elite Garage Doors. “Our simple summer checklist keeps doors reliable and extends their lifespan.”

Elite’s Summer Garage Door Checklist

Tighten & Inspect

Secure loose nuts, bolts, and brackets

Look for worn rollers, hinges, and cable frays

Balance & Test

With the opener disengaged, lift the door halfway— it should hold without drifting

An off‑balanced door strains springs and opener motors

Lubricate Moving Parts

Apply a silicone‑based spray to springs, rollers, and tracks

Avoid oil‑based products that attract dust

Verify Auto‑Reverse Function

Place a 2×4 in the door’s path; it must reverse on contact

Clean photo eyes and adjust alignment if the beam is obstructed

Check Weather Seals

Inspect bottom and side seals for cracks or gaps

Replace damaged strips to keep pests, debris, and heat out
