Inspect For Signs Of Wear And Tear
Look for signs of rust, dents, cracks, and other damage on your commercial overhead door. Make sure to check the hinges, latches, springs, cables, and other components for proper function. Also, make sure that your overhead door is properly lubricated, to avoid any unnecessary stress on its components that could lead to a malfunction.
Only Close When You’re Certain The Space Is Clear
Only shut the overhead door when you’re certain that there are no passersby in its path and the space beneath is completely clear of obstructions. Installing a simple safety sensor near the base of the door can ensure that this space is truly clear and provide an extra layer of protection if something were to unexpectedly block that space, like somebody running through. This safety sensor will stop the operation of the door in its tracks, and keep everybody safe.
Perform Routine Maintenance
No matter the age of your overhead door, it’s a good idea to bring in an expert every so often to check on it. Older doors in particular may require more frequent maintenance. Just because a door is working doesn’t mean that it’s completely safe and secure — there may be issues that seem minor at the time which could become catastrophic if not fixed. Don’t wait until it’s too late. When the door breaks down and requires repairs or replacements, call Guaranteed Garage Doors & Repair.
By following these tips, you can ensure that your commercial overhead door is safe and secure. Regular inspection and maintenance will help to extend the life of your overhead door and minimize the risk of accidents.
