Garage door questions, answered for Keyser

Keyser sits in West Virginia's continental-climate region — a humid continental climate — hot, humid summers and cold, snowy winters, with sharp freeze-thaw swings between seasons. That's hard on a door: freeze-thaw cycles that crack seals and loosen hardware and winter snow and ice load on doors and tracks all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are ice- and snow-jammed tracks and cold-snapped torsion springs in deep winter. We size springs and seals for local conditions, not a generic catalog spec.

The call we get most in Keyser is ice- and snow-jammed tracks. Local housing is mostly suburban single-family homes with attached garages, alongside pockets of older in-town housing, so cold-snapped torsion springs in deep winter turns up often too. We carry the common parts on the truck for a single-visit fix.

Most Keyser homes were built around 1962, and 88% predate 1980 — so a lot of doors are still on their original springs and openers, well past rated cycle life. We check door balance and hardware age on every visit.
