Sun, monsoon and a mountain in Pima County

Tucson sits higher than Phoenix, but the desert sun here is every bit as fierce. Summer afternoons are long and scorching, and that light fades paint and bakes the vinyl and rubber seals around a garage door. A door facing south or west can be too hot to touch by midday. The heat dries out lubricant on the rollers and hinges and makes the opener labor. Once the seals crack, dust, packrats and the occasional scorpion find a way into the garage. Our guide to side and top weatherstripping shows what a worn seal looks like.

Monsoon season is a big event in Tucson. Summer storms build over the Santa Catalina and Rincon mountains and can drop a lot of rain fast, with lightning, wind and dust riding ahead of them. Washes run, low streets flood, and the power sometimes flickers or goes out. Water that pools at the threshold wears on the bottom seal. If the power fails while the car is inside, our guide to opening the door during a power outage explains how the manual release works and when to leave it alone.

Housing in Tucson spans well over a century. Historic neighborhoods near downtown, like Armory Park and Barrio Viejo, hold some of the oldest homes in town, and where an older house does have a garage, its door and springs may have been in service a long time. Postwar ranch homes fill large stretches of the east and north sides. Newer subdivisions keep spreading through Marana, Vail and Sahuarita, while the Catalina Foothills have larger homes on hilly, rocky lots where runoff and grit find their way down the driveway.

South along Interstate 19, Green Valley is home to many retirees and seasonal residents, and a door that sits shut all summer can be stiff when its owners come back. Up on Mount Lemmon, Summerhaven gets real winter snow and freezing nights, a different job entirely from the desert floor. Cold thickens grease and stiffens rubber, and our guide to a door that won't open in cold weather explains what to do. Out west, Ajo and the small towns toward the border are remote, which makes yearly care more useful, not less. Whatever the elevation, treat the springs and cables as off limits. The tension in them is dangerous.

Do monsoon storms and desert dust affect a garage door in Tucson?

They do. Blowing dust settles in the tracks and on the rollers, and grit grinds away at moving parts every time the door runs. Storm runoff wears the bottom seal. The yearly tune-up lubricates all moving parts, inspects rollers, hinges, springs and cables, and tests the door's balance, so wear from a rough monsoon gets spotted early.

Our house is older and so is the garage door. Can a membership still help?

Yes. Older doors benefit the most from a yearly inspection, because springs, cables and rollers wear out over time. The tune-up checks each of them, tests balance and runs the opener safety test. If something needs repair, you see the price before any work starts, and members get savings on repair labor.

Is there a contract, and how do I cancel?

There is no contract and no setup fee. You are billed monthly on the date you join. To cancel, email or call (877) 257-6027 and there is no penalty. That makes it easy for seasonal residents and anyone who is not sure how long they will be in the house.
