In many homes, the garage door is the single largest moving object. Your residential garage door can raise and lower more than 1,500 times every year. It is big and heavy, and over time the motion of opening and closing causes friction and stress on the supporting tracks, bearings, and other mechanicals.
A squeaky garage door can be a nuisance and even an embarrassment. You may find yourself trying to ignore it, hoping the noise will go away. It’s hard to enjoy resting in your den or entertaining guests with that irritating squeal present.
