Fog, salt air and row houses in Daly City
Daly City is often called one of the foggiest places in the Bay Area, and anyone who lives here knows the gray marine layer can sit over the hills for days, especially in summer. That damp air carries salt off the Pacific. It settles on springs, cables, hinges and rollers and speeds up rust on bare metal. Our guide to garage door care in humid, coastal areas explains how that moisture works on a door.
A lot of Daly City was built in the years after World War II, and neighborhoods like Westlake are known for rows of homes with the garage on the ground floor, right at the sidewalk, with the living space above. In those houses the garage door is the front of the home and gets used every day. Openers in these homes are often original or close to it.
Wind is steady near the ocean, and strong gusts off the water push against doors and work their way through worn seals. A loose seal lets in damp air, sand and grit. Steep streets also mean some garage slabs are not level, which can leave a gap at one corner. If wind whistles under your door, read about the weatherstripping on the sides and top.
In a climate this damp, fresh lubrication does more than anywhere else to keep a door moving smoothly, and it is part of every member tune-up. The same visit inspects the springs, cables, rollers and hinges, tests the balance and checks the opener's safety reverse. The springs and cables are wound tight, so leave any adjustment to a professional.
