Garage door questions, answered for Inver Grove Heights

Inver Grove Heights sits in long stretches of bitter cold and snow load, with a short warm season and big seasonal temperature swings. That is hard on a door — doors iced to the slab on sub-zero mornings, rapid freeze-thaw that splits aging weather seals, and deep winter cold that stiffens springs and grease all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are loosened hardware from repeated freeze-thaw, freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals, cold-snapped torsion springs in deep winter, and frozen, sluggish openers in unheated garages. We size springs and seals for Minnesota's cold northern climate conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.

The call we get most in Inver Grove Heights is loosened hardware from repeated freeze-thaw.
