A garage door spring is a counter balance system for the garage door. A garage door is very heavy and can weigh up to 700 pounds. The springs are the muscle that lifts and closes a garage door.
When a garage door spring is replaced, a balance test is done. A balance test is to ensure that the springs were installed to meet the specifications of the garage door. A well balanced garage door a garage, when operated manually, will hold itself up in any position of the garage opening.
A garage door spring is guaranteed to break. It is just a matter of time. That time is measure in cycles that the garage door goes up and down. The standard garage door spring has a 10,000 cycle life, and that is an average of 8-12 years. If the garage doors moving parts have not been maintained or periodically oiled, the springs, rollers, bearings, and hinges can seize. This will cause premature breakage. If the springs are not the correct size, this can also cause the springs to break premature.
Our garage door springs last longer because:
-All replacement springs are oil tempered
-We use 2”ID springs instead of 1 3/4”ID
-We use a high cycle conversion for 20,000 cycles
-After all repairs, we show the customer how to do a preventative maintenance on their door.
We have never had a garage door spring break prematurely since 1979.
An insulated garage door helps to keep the heat out of your garage and will keep it cooler. A non-insulated will transfer heat and make your garage much hotter. A couple things to consider when choosing either an insulated or non-insulated garage door:
-What is the material of your old garage door?
-Wood or Fiberglass garage doors do not conduct heat like a steel garage door. When replacing your wood or fiberglass door with a non-insulated steel
door, your garage will be hotter than your wood or fiberglass door
-Exposure
- If your garage door faces East or West. The Sun is hitting your door more than a North or South Exposure. -Is your Garage Air Conditioned?
-If your garage is air conditioned. A insulated garage door will keep the cool air in and hot air out.
We offer a variety of insulated garage doors ranging from an R-7 to R-18.
Non-Impact garage doors have been tested and wind rated to 156mph-220mph. Non-Impact does not protect against flying debris.
Impact garage doors are wind rated to 156mph-220mph and are rated for large missile impact debris.
My garage door spring broke on a Sunday morning. I called three companies. One company didn't answer, the other company wanted an additional charge, due to it being an emergency. Then I called Uneda Garage Door Service. Not only did they answer the phone, they also arrived within the hour. The technician was professional, and I will recommend Uneda to all my friends and family. Thanks Again!
Don was very professional, on time, and fixed my garage door in a very timely matter while explaining everything to me. I had called two big companies in town to no avail even though their websites say they are 24 hour service, one was trying to help the other one not at all. Don came out at 7 pm on a Saturday night which I can not express how much I need his help. I highly recommend this company.
If you need an honest, dependable, and reliable garage door company, this is the one. I met Don when I called about 2 rollers literally came off he tracks and it looked like the garage door was about to fall off. With a busy day the next day we were in a bind because we could not get out of the garage. I thought the door was damaged beyond repair, or a very expensive repair. I called Uneda, Don said he would be out in 45 minutes, he was there in 40. Even though he could tell we were in quite the pickle, he gave us a fair price for quality service. He really saved the day for us. if you need help with your garage door, you need to call Uneda!
Even in the pouring rain the man got the job done quick and for a really good price. I highly recommend them. Thank you again Don.
