Tips for wooden garage door maintenance

In order to maintain the classic appearance and robustness of a wooden garage door, homeowners need to properly maintain these doors.

Regardless of the design, it is important to check all the moving parts of a garage door at least once per year. Make sure springs, rollers, and hinges are properly working. Look for loose or missing screws and replace any as soon as possible to avoid even more expensive garage door repairs in the future.

You can also help to prevent cracking and flaking of the wooden garage door by applying sealants. And, if you have a heavy wooden garage door, you should make sure there is a metal support rod to prevent it from sagging.
