A grinding garage door in Abilene usually points to worn rollers, dry hardware, or a strained opener. It's worth fixing before the noise turns into a breakdown.

Why does this keep happening in Abilene? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Wild temperature swings and hail takes its toll — hail dents panels, and temp swings fatigue springs — so a garage door making a grinding noise is one of the more common calls our Abilene crews run.

What might be wrong

Common causes when your garage door making a grinding noise

Here's what our local techs check first — and what each one usually means.

Worn-out rollers
Old steel rollers grind in the tracks as the bearings wear down.
Dry, un-lubricated hardware
Springs, hinges, and rollers need periodic lubrication to run quietly.
A failing opener gear
A grinding from the opener itself often means a stripped drive gear.
