Garage door systems involve heavy components under significant mechanical tension. A standard residential garage door weighs between 150 and 400 pounds, and the springs that counterbalance that weight store a tremendous amount of energy. For the safety of you and your family in Boise, please keep these important warnings in mind before attempting any work on your garage door system:

The Treasure Valley and surrounding Idaho/Eastern Oregon region experiences a semi-arid climate with extreme temperature ranges — hot summers exceeding 100°F and cold winters dropping below 0°F. This thermal cycling is the primary stress factor for garage door springs and hardware. Cold weather can thicken gate operator lubricants and drain batteries faster. Winterize before first hard freeze. Understanding these local conditions helps you plan maintenance and catch problems early.

While basic maintenance like lubrication and sensor cleaning can be done by homeowners, many garage door issues require professional service for safety and effectiveness. Call D&L at (208) 650-4304 when you notice any of these situations:
