GARAGE DOOR BRACKETS
Many different garage door
brackets work to hold your garage door in place.
Some should only be replaced by a professional because they are under high tension.
The weight of the doors varies, but they are among the heaviest items in your home.
It is important for your safety that they are well maintained. The door should open smoothly and quietly.
There should be no shaking. When shaking noticed, it is often because of a loose or cracked bracket.
You should take the time to check each
item. If a bracket breaks, a portion of the door could fall on your car or on a family member.
Many people think that the garage door opener does all of the heavy liftings, but it is the torsion springs that allow the door to open smoothly. The rollers along the side enable the door to slide up quietly and quickly. The cables prevent the door from falling too fast and assist with the lifting. Most of those components, as well as the main door, are held in place by brackets of some kind.
The 5สบ center bearing bracket is under high tension. If it is cracked and needs to be replaced, you should call a professional.
