Why Chandler doors are hitting middle age
Much of Chandler was farmland not that long ago. The city grew very quickly from the late eighties until shortly after the turn of the century, and most of its homes went up in that window. That means a lot of garage doors, springs and openers here are now well into their second or third decade, often still the originals the builder installed. Springs have a limited number of cycles in them, and openers wear out too. Our article on how long springs and openers last explains what to expect.
The south end around Ocotillo and the lakes communities came later and often has larger homes with three-car garages, sometimes with a single bay door next to a double. The lakes and green common areas look cool, but they do not change the basic summer: weeks of strong heat, a hot garage and an opener that works through it. Lubricant dries and the bottom seal hardens. A cracked seal lets in dust, insects and summer heat.
Downtown Chandler and the older neighborhoods near it have a different stock, with smaller homes, older single doors and some carports. Many were built long before the boom, and some garages here were added on or rebuilt along the way. On a door that old, it pays to know whether it still lifts evenly and stays put when you let go halfway. Our garage door safety guide explains the simple checks you can do without touching the springs.
Late summer brings monsoon storms across the East Valley, with gusts, blowing dust and short, heavy rain. Grit in the tracks makes rollers wear and the door run louder. If a door starts reversing or stopping short after a storm, that is worth a look rather than repeated tries. Springs and cables are under a great deal of tension, so they are a job for a professional, never a do-it-yourself project.

Our Chandler home was built in the nineties. Should we worry about the springs?
It is worth paying attention. Many doors here still have their original springs and openers, and those parts wear with every cycle and with years of summer heat. The yearly tune-up inspects the springs and cables, tests the door's balance, checks the rollers and hinges and lubricates every moving part, which is how wear like that gets caught before the door stops working.
What exactly does the tune-up check?
Each yearly tune-up is a full safety inspection. It covers the springs and cables, the rollers and hinges, lubrication of all moving parts, a door balance test and an opener safety test. If a repair is needed, you see the price before any work begins, and members save on repair labor.
We plan to sell our Chandler house next year. Does the garage door matter?
It often comes up. Buyers and inspectors notice a door that is loud, slow, uneven or slow to reverse when the sensors are blocked. A yearly tune-up before listing gets the springs, cables, rollers and hinges checked, the moving parts lubricated and the opener safety test run. Our guide to getting a garage door ready before selling covers the rest.
