If you notice unusual noises like creaking or grinding when the door moves, or if the door seems misaligned or unstable, it could indicate worn or damaged hinges. Visible wear, such as rust or bending in the hinges, is also a clear sign that they need replacement. Regular inspection can help identify these issues early, preventing more significant problems.

If your garage door is making unusual noises, not opening or closing smoothly, or seems off-balance, it may indicate a need for track alignment or repair. Other signs include the door sticking at certain points during operation or the tracks appearing bent or damaged. Regular inspections can help catch these issues early, preventing more significant problems.

Steel garage doors are highly durable, offer good insulation, and require low maintenance, but they can be prone to rust and are generally heavier. Aluminum doors are lighter, rust-resistant, and suitable for wider doors but may dent more easily and offer less insulation than steel doors.
