During Edmonton’s harsh winters, a malfunctioning garage door can be a frustrating problem, leaving you stranded or compromising the safety of your home and vehicle. Iceberg Overhead Doors specializes in resolving such issues, offering reliable services to inspect and repair both mechanical and electronic components affected by the extreme cold.

Understanding Common Cold-Weather Garage Door Issues

Several factors can prevent a garage door from functioning in freezing temperatures. Ice buildup on tracks and rollers, contracting metal components, stiffened lubricants, and broken springs are some of the most frequent culprits. Additionally, cold weather can cause electronic components like motors and sensors to malfunction or frost to interfere with weather seals, making the door difficult to open.

Why Professional Inspection Matters

While some minor issues can be addressed with do-it-yourself solutions, most garage door problems require professional expertise. Iceberg Overhead Doors offers comprehensive inspections to identify and resolve the root causes of cold-weather garage door malfunctions.

• Mechanical Checks: Tracks are examined for ice buildup, rollers are lubricated with winter-grade products, and springs, cables, and hinges are inspected for damage.
• Electronic Diagnostics: Motors, sensors, and remote systems are checked for frost, wiring issues, and misalignments to ensure smooth communication between components.

Prevention and DIY Maintenance Tips

To minimize downtime, Iceberg Overhead Doors recommends proactive measures and simple fixes:

• Melt frozen weather seals with a hairdryer or warm water.
• Use silicone-based lubricants on moving parts to prevent stiffness.
• Clean dirt or frost from sensors and replace batteries in remote controls as needed.

However, avoid forcing a malfunctioning door open, as it can cause further damage. For lasting solutions, call the experts at Iceberg Overhead Doors.
