spare the opener.
A door that drifts down or floats up when you pull the release is out of balance, and the opener has been lifting weight it was never designed for. We set the springs on doors in Oakhill so the door rests wherever you leave it, which spares the motor, the gear and the rail.

2021 census: what it means at the door
Every square is one home in a hundred.
- 61 in 100 homes · older homes
- 56 in 100 homes · mixed housing
- About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census.Older garages tend to have lower headroom and narrower single openings, so replacement doors and openers are chosen to fit the space rather than the other way round. Measuring the header, side room and ceiling depth is the first step on every one of these visits.
- Single-detached houses make up about 56% of homes in Hamilton (2021 Census).A neighbourhood with a mix of detached houses and townhouses or condos means a technician moves between a wide family double door and a narrow single in a row within the same afternoon. The van carries hardware for both, and each visit is planned for that door.

Things people wonder
How do I look after the new seal?
Wipe it clean of salt and grit a few times a year, and give it a light coat of silicone spray each autumn so meltwater has nothing to bond to. Keep petroleum products and solvents away from it, since they soften vinyl. Clear ice and packed snow from the threshold before running the door in winter. Once a season, look under the closed door for daylight. That is the whole routine.
Do I need a manual lock at all if I have an opener?
Many households do without one. With the trolley engaged, an opener holds the door shut, and most wall consoles include a lock-out button that disables every remote while you are away. A manual lock earns its place for power outages, for a detached garage without an opener, and for anyone who likes a physical bar in the track. The technician can set the door up either way.
Why do springs seem to break in cold weather?
Cold makes steel slightly less forgiving and thickens the grease on the coils, so a spring that has already used most of its cycle life is more likely to let go on a frosty morning when the door is first opened. The cold is the final straw rather than the cause; the underlying reason is fatigue from years of cycles, sometimes helped along by rust and dry coils.
The door was fine until a power cut. Why is it heavy now?
During a power cut the door is often released and moved by hand for the first time in years, and what people discover is a door that had already grown heavy while the opener quietly covered for it. The outage did not change the springs; it revealed them. A balance check confirms what the door weighs against what the springs give, and resets them to match.
