What material is your garage door made of?

At Empire Garage Doors, we specialise in the repair and maintenance of a wide range of garage doors made from various materials such as timber, steel, ABS, and GRP fibreglass. We guarantee your Burgess Hill garage door will be in the best shape once we have carried out our enviable garage door repairs and maintenance service!  

Timber Garage Door Maintenance 

Typically, environmentally friendly FSC certified materials such as solid cedar and marine plywood are used for construction purposes.

To maintain the durability of your wooden garage door, it is important to follow the manufacturer's recommended guidelines to preserve its quality and longevity. This involves periodically applying a recommended preservative to prevent eventual decay and fading.

GRP Fibreglass Garage Door Repair  

For those looking for a more low-maintenance choice, Glass Reinforced Polyester (GRP) may be the ideal solution.

These maintenance-free garage doors boast both strength and durability. In the event of any blemishes or marks, a simple clean with warm soapy water will do the trick.

ABS Garage Door Issues 

ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) plastic doors are well-known for their exceptional impact resistance, low maintenance requirements, and comprehensive manufacturer's warranty.  

Small damages can easily be addressed with cleaning and sanding, but for larger and more complex problems such as cracks or breaks, it is best to seek the help from a professional garage door repair service like Empire Garage Doors.

Steel Doors for Garages 

A popular and affordable choice, especially in Burgess Hill, steel garage doors are coated with a protective layer to withstand harsh weather, and come in various finishes - allowing you to diversify your garage door how you see fit.

Plastisol Coating  

The door's exterior is coated with maintenance-free vinyl (Plastisol HP200) to provide protection.

The coating is available in multiple colours and can be applied with a smooth or textured finish, depending on the specific manufacturer. Generally, Plastisol coatings come with a 10-year guarantee.

Powder Coated 

Both sides of the garage door are coated with a dry powder made from polyester and then baked in an oven to cure.

The procedure involves melting the powder, resulting in a strong and sleek outcome. You have a plethora of colour options to truly enhance your property.

Self-painted

After the installation process, customers have the option of personally painting their steel garage door.

Choosing this path requires sanding the surface, applying a new layer of primer, and adding multiple coats of sturdy, weather-resistant paint. To ensure long-lasting results, it is recommended to have your garage door expertly finished.

Touch-up kits can be provided upon purchase, while Empire Garage Doors can arrange for a complete re-coating if needed.

FAQs – Fixing Garage Doors

Most commonly asked questions regarding the repair and maintenance of garage doors.

There is nothing safe about DIY garage door repair. You can put yourself and others at risk if the door comes crashing down or a part malfunctions. Therefore, you should leave garage door repair to the experts. 

NEVER attempt to adjust garage door springs yourself. These are under tension and need specialist equipment to make safe repairs.

 

Most garage doors last between 15 and 30 years, though really it depends on the door, you and your environment. The lifespan of your garage door is determined by a variety of factors, including: Usage: The type of springs you have determines how many open/close cycles your garage is good for

The most common cause of an uneven garage door is worn out cables that sag, so checks to make sure your cables are still in good condition. If not, you may need to call a professional to replace them.

Generally, it’s not possible to repair a cracked garage door. Cracks are usually due to metal fatigue – once the integrity of the door is compromised, the only good solution is a replacement garage door.

The problem is either due to a blocked path between the sensors, dirty sensors, loose wires at the sensors or at the motor head, or just bad sensors. The transmitters (remotes) will not work to close the garage door in these cases.

When the garage door is lowered, the springs gain tension. When raising the garage door, tension is released and the spring assists with the lifting. It’s important to note, your garage door springs have the most tension when the garage door is closed. As a result, most garage door springs break when the door is down.
