Garage door rollers are housed inside the door tracks. These can either be made from steel or nylon, so their life span differs accordingly. When you hear squeaky sounds coming from the rollers every time you open it, it may be caused by a damaged roller.
You need to immediately replace the rollers to prevent further damage. If a roller is defective, other parts such as the tracks, spring and cables will cease to function normally. It can also help you ensure that your garage door can last long.
Changing the rollers should be a part of your regular garage door maintenance routine. It won’t take long to finish. There are roller replacements you can purchase in home improvement store.
You can replace the spare part on your own as long as you have the skills and equipment required. Otherwise, you should just call in a garage door repair company.
