How Missouri weather and homes wear on a garage door

Inside St. Louis city limits, a lot of homes are brick, and a lot of garages sit at the back of the lot facing an alley. Many of those detached garages went up long before automatic openers were common, and the doors on them have often been swapped, patched or motorized along the way. A door like that can hang a little crooked or drag on one side. If yours has started to close with a gap on one end, our guide to an uneven gap at the bottom explains what usually causes it.

Missouri summers are hot and sticky, and the region sits where the Missouri and Mississippi rivers meet, so the air rarely dries out from June into September. Grease thins in that heat, wood swells, and an opener working against a heavy door on a muggy afternoon runs harder than it should. Spring brings its own trouble. Strong thunderstorms roll through with wind, sideways rain and sometimes hail, and the bottom seal and side weatherstripping take the brunt of it.

Winter here is less about deep snow and more about ice. Freezing rain coats driveways and door bottoms, and the temperature swings above and below freezing again and again. Water that gets under a cracked seal can freeze the door to the slab overnight. Forcing it with the opener is how seals tear and motors burn out, so read up on cold weather and a door that won't open before you press the button twice.

Out past the Missouri River, St. Charles County has filled in fast, with O'Fallon, St. Peters and Wentzville full of newer subdivisions and attached two car garages. Jefferson and Franklin counties are hillier, with steep driveways around Arnold, Festus, Union and Washington. Farther out, in Lincoln, Warren and St. Francois counties, homes around Troy, Warrenton and Farmington often sit on bigger lots with detached garages. In every one of these homes, the springs do most of the lifting each time the door goes up. Never try to tighten or release one yourself.

Questions from homeowners in Missouri

Does DoorGuard serve the St. Louis area of Missouri?

Yes. DoorGuard serves 172 ZIP codes in eastern Missouri, across St. Louis city and St. Louis, St. Charles, Jefferson, Franklin, Lincoln, Warren and St. Francois counties. That takes in places like Kirkwood, Florissant, Chesterfield, O'Fallon, Arnold and Farmington. Coverage is set ZIP by ZIP, so type yours into the checker on this page to be sure.

Ice storms and humid summers both hit here. What does that do to a door?

Humidity thins out grease and lets rust start on hinges and fasteners, while ice and repeated freezing stress the bottom seal and the opener. The yearly tune-up lubricates every moving part, checks springs, cables, rollers and hinges, tests the door's balance and runs the opener safety test. That is where small problems get spotted before a cold morning turns them into a stuck door.

My house is older and the garage door is too. Is it still worth joining?

Older doors are often where a yearly visit helps most. Worn rollers, loose hinges and a door that has drifted out of balance tend to creep up slowly, and the inspection looks for exactly that. If a repair is needed, members get priority scheduling and savings on repair labor, and the price is shown before any work starts.

Am I locked in once I sign up?

No. There is no contract and no setup fee. You are billed monthly on the date you joined, and you can cancel anytime by email or by calling (877) 257-6027, with no penalty. Sign-up happens at guardyourdoor.com.
