Want to make an investment that lasts?

Who wants a garage door that breaks down, chips frequently, needs new parts and operates inconsistently?  Your garage door is the biggest appliance in your home, and it is a large investment. It requires care to keep it working.  Just like you keep your HVAC system up to date, it is important to prioritize your garage door. High-quality garage doors are Metro’s specialty.  Our customers never regret putting their hard-earned money into a well-built, long-lasting garage door.

How do I choose the right one?

Our garage door technicians are uniquely trained and equipped to consult with you and inspect your garage. We will give you the best products for the best price while keeping quality and safety in mind. Garage doors can be made of several different materials such as glass, wood, or steel. We can recommend and give advice on the pros and cons of each type. Everybody’s home is different, which is why we believe in one-on-one in-home quotes and consultations.

Once I get my new door, how can I upkeep it?

Just like any other large and complicated appliance, you must upkeep your garage door to prolong its lifetime. So, what are some precautions you can take? Here are Metro’s recommendations on garage door maintenance:

  • You should schedule yearly maintenance by an experienced technician. Our technicians at Metro can visit your home and inspect all aspects of your garage door. The parts that allow it to operate can get worn down with use and be sure they are installed correctly keeps you safe!
  • Always call a technician when there is an issue. If your garage door starts to operate incorrectly, or is opening and closing with difficulty, there could be a loose part or a potential repair. We encourage service repair appointments if you see any signs of failure.
  • Make sure that you clean your door often. A well-kept door is routinely cleaned. You can do this yourself by being sure any debris or dirt that gets on your door is washed away. The buildup of dirt in the rollers or tracks can cause damage to the part or door.
  • Oil the parts of your door. A Metro technician can oil and lubricate the crucial parts of the door that keep it gliding and moving smoothly. Parts will start to deteriorate after years of use, and lubrication can help prevent that.
What will a new door give me?

You should consider a new garage door as your current door becomes outdated. The first, and most important benefit a new and high-quality door will bring is peace of mind. Garage doors are extremely heavy and can be fatal if used incorrectly or if operated when broken. We want you and your family safe when using your garage, and a new garage door can take you and your family out of harm’s way. Upgrading will also provide new technology for opening and closing, brand new parts, a quieter operating sound, and a brand-new look to the exterior of your home. We could go on and on about the benefits of our highest quality equipment.   Call our office for more advice, benefits, and answers to questions you may have.

Benefits of a New Upgrade

At Metro Garage Doors, we have found that our customers never regret upgrading their garage door from old models. There are so many benefits that come along with this upgrade that you cannot miss out on!

Safety:

Garage doors are one of the heaviest appliances in your home. With small children at play during the summer, the last thing you want to worry about is your garage door breaking or falling at the wrong time. While Metro provides tips and maintenance to be sure your garage door is perfectly safe, a new garage door has features to prevent accidents from occurring. The lightweight of a new door adds to its efficiency of opening and shutting both manually and automatically. A new garage door has given many parents peace of mind as their kids pull their favorite toys from the garage door. Don’t let the fear of a broken garage door ruin their fun! At Metro Garage Doors, we value safety above all, so we will only recommend the best, and highest quality products to our customers.

Modern Touch:

At Metro, we take pride in our detailed craftmanship on every garage door. Want the cleanest, or chicest, garage door? Some garage doors will make you think, “I can’t believe that is a garage door upgrade!”. Our modern look with our garage doors has that capability. Make your neighbors jealous with our newest, most intricate design yet. We have many different options you can choose from. The customer gets to choose the style, finish, color, and material to customize it perfectly for their house. You don’t need to repaint or rebuild; an improved garage door can spruce up the front of your house to make your dreams a reality!

Easy To Use:

Traditional, heavy garage doors are a pain to manually open and shut. Our new design for garage doors brings the benefit of manual use or power operated, or both! Lose power? Don’t fret–the lightweight design makes manually opening and closing the garage door simple.

Maintenance:

Our experts love the new technology—maintenance and repair of the hardware and doors much easier. New parts and equipment lessen the hassle of repair. Invest in a replacement now, and save money on repairs, service calls, and parts later. At Metro, we want you to have the best experience with our garage door upgrade by limiting your need for our help!

Reduced Noise:

Ever get annoyed with how loud your garage door is? Working from home is becoming the norm and the last thing you need is your garage door interrupting your meeting or virtual presentation. Modern garage doors are quieter than an older model because it takes less power to open and close. The new technology of garage doors provides minimal sound when in operation to keep the peace at home.

Energy Savings:

Believe it or not, installing a newer, higher-quality door will save you money on those monthly power bills. New doors have better insulation technology that keeps the cold air in and the hot air out during the Georgia summers. With this added feature, you start to save lots of money because you are preventing the air conditioner from working harder. Saving monthly makes the investment worth it!

Have you checked your garage door rollers?

By

Inspect your garage door rollers!

It is easy to forget the complexity of a garage door. The door is not the only important feature—there are many parts that need to be checked and potentially replaced throughout your garage door’s lifetime. The rollers of the door are responsible for opening and closing the door safely. If the rollers are worn down or not working correctly, your garage door could be in danger of damage, as well as any people or cars that more underneath the door frequently. Metro Garage Doors encourages their clients to be wary and proactive with the rollers on their door.

How do I know if I need a replacement?

Garage door rollers should last you a long time, so Metro Garage Doors recommends checking them at least once per year. Here are a few tell-tale signs that your rollers need to be replaced.

  • Loosening of the rollers
  • Incorrect movement of the rollers when the door is stationary
  • Rollers are visibly cracked, or any part around the roller is broken
  • Garage door is not smoothly opening and closing

The rollers are located on both sides of your garage door to roll up and down the garage when functioning.

Some rollers may look different than others!

There are two common types of rollers you may find on your garage door.

  1. Builder-Grade Rollers: These steel or hard plastic rollers are most likely what you will find on your door. They have no ball-bearings, so they need to be replaced much more often. We Metro recommends every two years to replace these to keep your garage door in great shape. These types of rollers usually squeak when in need of replacement.
  2. Upgraded Rollers: These are made of nylon and have ball bearings. They will last longer but should be lubricated a few times a year.

Need help determining the next step for your garage door? Metro Garage Doors is here to help ensure your garage door is functioning with perfectly working parts. We can inspect your rollers, lubricate them, and replace them when needed. Call us today to speak to a garage door expert and schedule your next appointment for repair or replacement. We are proud to serve the residents of Douglasville Georgia and ensuring their comfort and peace of mind with their garage door.

Garage Door Safety

By

The safety and health of our customers are Metro’s biggest priority. We want to be sure that your garage door is working correctly to avoid possible injury. Garage doors are complex and heavy machines that require attention to detail to ensure you and your family are safe with everyday use. Metro Garage Door is your garage door safety expert in Douglasville, GA, trust our experience.

Garage Door Safety Features that We Offer

Modern garage doors are manufactured to provide extra safety benefits for everyday use.

  • Pinch-resistant garage doors are designed to push small objects, like fingers, out of the way to prevent closing on them. If you have kids, this feature may appeal to you because kids are less likely to understand how your garage door works. No parent wants to deal with smooshed fingers!
  • Another safety feature is tamper-resistant bottom brackets on the door. These brackets prevent someone from altering the cable tension. They also allow easier access to repairing rollers without tampering with springs.
  • The springs of a garage door are the most important part and become very dangerous if not working properly. The springs hold all of the tension and weight of the garage door as it rolls up and down. The TorqueMaster counterbalance system encases the springs to prevent damage to the springs. If the springs break, it will occur in the tubes keeping any bystanders safe. In the event of a broken spring, the counterbalance system holds the door in place to prevent falling onto an object or person unexpectedly.

3 Positive ROI Benefits Of Installing A New Garage Door

By

Garage Door Replacement

When making home improvements, it is important to consider the long-term implications of your decisions and prioritize those projects that will offer the greatest returns when the time comes to sell your home. According to a 2017 study conducted by Remodeling Magazine, upgrading your garage door is one of the home improvements that will offer the best ROI or return on investment. To learn more about what makes a new garage door such a sound investment, read on. This article will list three undeniably positive aspects of installing a new garage door.

Enhanced Curb Appeal – Installing a New Garage Door

Curb appeal is one of the most important qualities a home can have when the time comes to sell. Prospective buyers will begin forming impressions–either positive or negative–the second they pull up to your home. A dented, flaking or otherwise rundown garage door will immediately contribute to a negative impression, lessening the likelihood of making a sale. An attractive new garage door, on the other hand, will help to predispose a buyer in your direction. 

Increased Security

 It is important to also consider the impact a garage door upgrade will have on your home’s overall security profile. No matter how well protected the rest of your home, a flimsy old garage door represents a potential security nightmare. In this regard, upgrading to a heartier door–particularly one made of steel–will pay dividends where enhanced security is concerned. 

Better Functionality 

Many older homes still have garage doors that have to be opened and closed manually. While you may have grown used to this chore, potential buyers may well be turned off by it. Upgrading to a garage door with an automatic opener will attract buyers who intend to store their car in the garage on a daily basis–and who don’t want to have to go through the hassle of opening and closing the door themselves.
