What a New Hampshire year does to a garage door
A New Hampshire winter asks a lot of a garage door. Snow arrives early, nor'easters can drop a heavy load in one storm, and the plows push a frozen ridge right up to the end of the driveway. Through the cold months the temperature crosses freezing over and over, so meltwater runs under the door by day and turns to ice by night. A worn bottom seal lets that water in. Our guide to the garage door bottom seal shows what a healthy one looks like.
Ice storms and heavy, wet snow also bring down power lines, and outages are a familiar part of the season in wooded towns. When the power goes out, the door has to be opened by hand, and that only goes smoothly when the springs are balanced and the rollers are free. It is worth knowing how before the next storm, so keep our page on opening a garage door in a power outage handy.
Plenty of homes here are old. Farmhouses and capes in towns like Peterborough, Hopkinton and Walpole often have a detached garage or a converted barn, and the mill cities along the Merrimack, from Nashua up through Manchester and Concord, have older neighborhoods with tight lots. Southern Rockingham and Hillsborough counties, around Salem, Londonderry and Bedford, filled in with newer homes and attached garages as people moved up from Massachusetts.
On the Seacoast, in Portsmouth, Rye and Hampton, salt air from the ocean adds rust to the list. Around Lake Winnipesaukee and up into Conway and the White Mountains, many homes are seasonal, and a door that sits closed for months can stick or groan when it finally moves. Whatever the setting, the springs and cables carry a lot of tension. Leave them alone and let a professional handle any adjustment.

How does a long freeze and thaw season affect my garage door?
Repeated freezing and thawing works on the bottom seal, the weatherstripping and the hardware, and cold makes grease stiff so the door drags and the opener strains. The yearly tune-up lubricates all moving parts, inspects the springs, cables, rollers and hinges, checks the door's balance and tests the opener's safety features, which catches the wear winter leaves behind.
We just bought an older home. What should we know about the garage door?
Start by learning how the door and opener behave: how it sounds, whether it closes evenly, and how to release it by hand. Our new homeowner checklist on the site walks through it. A membership gives you a yearly inspection of the springs, cables, rollers and hinges, so you know where the door stands from the first year.
How do members ask for a visit?
Request a visit through the site or call (877) 257-6027. Members get priority scheduling on repairs, and the yearly tune-up is requested the same way. Exact timing depends on availability in your part of the state, and repair labor is priced before any work begins.
