How to Install a Garage Door

• The first thing we need to do when we install your new garage door in Somers is remove your old door. We will unlatch the door from the pulley system, as well as take apart the panels of the door and unscrew the tracks.
• Next, we will measure and attach the hinges. We will need to measure different areas such as door-opening height, width, and headroom.
• We will then start installing the panels, starting with the bottom piece. To secure it in place, we tap nails partway into each jam and then slightly bend the nails to secure them into place.  From there, we will install the rest of the panels on top of the bottom panel.
• After all of the panels are installed, rollers will need to be installed in the section’s roller supports. We do this by placing the rollers in the assembled track and securing them into the track’s brackets.
• Lastly, we will use our measurements to guarantee that the tracks are straight and then attach the springs to the pulley system.

Automatic garage door openers were created in the mid-1920’s.  Since then, improvements have been made to perfect the system, but they still function in a similar way to the original models.  The way that your garage door opener works is that the motor allows the system of pulleys and springs to raise and lower your garage door in Bedford.  When your garage door in Bedford is closed, the motor acts as a locking mechanism and doesn’t allow the garage door in Bedford to open without a signal being sent from the opener.

 

These automatic garage door openers are signaled to open or close by a button in the garage door in Bedford, a keypad on the wall, or a handheld garage door remote.  Garage door opener remotes are radio transmitters.  They send signals to the opener, which has a radio receiver built in.  When the opener hears the signal, it activates a relay, which then gets the motor running.  Modern garage door openers now have a binary number encoded in it so that the receiver can look for that number and only open with the correct code.  For safety purposes, each time a code is used, a new code is generated.

 

Although modern garage door openers work in the same way, they now have some advances.  At Henry Allen Garage Doors, we can help you make your house a smart house by using a LiftMaster Motor.  These garage door openers have built in MyQ technology with wifi, meaning you can control your garage door in Bedford from a smartphone, tablet, or laptop.  The best part is that you can do this from anywhere in the world.  That means that you’re able to open your garage door in Bedford if somebody needs to enter your home without you there, you can close your garage door in Bedford from work in case you forgot, and it also notifies you anytime your garage door opens or closes, even when you’re not home.
