A garage door system requires a properly aligned and maintained garage door track. The purpose of the track is to assist with the smooth operation as the door opens and closes.
A garage door might go off track leading to trouble. If it becomes too tight, the door could bind and not move upwards and downwards correctly. If it remains too loose, the door could fall. Similarly, the distance from the jamb also impacts the working of the garage door. If the tracks are very far from the jamb, the door and weatherstrip could have a gap. If the tracks are very close to the jamb, the door will not open and close properly.
Garage doors are made using metal components. All of these can wear down with time. However, the life expectancy of a garage door can be enhanced with annual maintenance. You must schedule maintenance sessions frequently or else you will soon need to replace the entire door system.
