How do I measure garage door parts?

Garage door parts must be chosen based on the door's weight. That's the golden rule to remember. Each component has special characteristics. You need to know the diameter of rollers and length of tracks. For springs, measure the length, inside diameter, and wire diameter.

How do we set the door's travel limit?

When the overhead door doesn't open all the way, the UP button or switch at the garage door opener unit is turned clockwise. When the door doesn't close, the DOWN button is turned counterclockwise. If the door reverses, the DOWN switch is turned clockwise. It requires attention and you might need the assistance of Garage Door Repair Mesquite since the reverse system must be checked afterwards.
