Overview
A garage door does a lot of work. It is the heaviest moving part of most homes and it gets used several times a day, so it pays to keep it serviced. A regular service keeps the door running quietly, keeps it safe, and catches the small faults that turn into expensive failures if they are left.
Thom services garage doors right across the Sunshine Coast, from the coast at Maroochydore and Mooloolaba to Buderim and the Kawana suburbs. He works on sectional, roller and tilt doors and the common opener brands, and carries the parts for the usual jobs, so most services are done in one visit.
Whether it is your own home, a rental you manage, or a door that has started making a noise you would rather it did not, a service is the simplest way to keep it reliable.
01 / Service
What a full service includes
Every service covers the same checklist: spring tension and balance, roller and track lubrication, hardware tightening, cable and drum inspection, and a test of the opener and its safety reversal. Thom finishes by running the door by hand and under power to make sure it is quiet and even.
If something is worn, he will show you and tell you whether it needs doing now or can wait.
02 / Service
When to book a service
Book a service if the door is noisy, slow, uneven, or has not been looked at in over a year. Doors near the beach wear faster because salt air attacks springs, cables and fixings, so coastal homes are worth doing more often.
If the door has started catching, juddering or banging, do not wait. That is usually a part on its way out, and it is cheaper to fix before it fails.
03 / Service
Servicing for rentals and strata
Property managers and landlords across the Sunshine Coast use Thom for regular door servicing on rentals and strata complexes. A yearly service keeps tenants safe, cuts emergency callbacks, and gives you a clear record that the door has been maintained.
He can deal with tenants directly to arrange access and keep you updated.

Questions
Garage door questions, answered
For most homes, once a year keeps the door safe and quiet and catches wear early. If the door is used many times a day, or you are near the beach where salt speeds up wear, every six to nine months is better. Rentals and strata doors are worth doing yearly so small faults do not turn into callbacks.
Thom checks and adjusts the spring balance, lubricates the rollers, hinges and tracks, tightens the bolts and brackets, inspects the cables and drums, and tests the opener and its safety reversal. He also checks the seals and runs the door by hand. You get a quick rundown of anything wearing out before it fails.
Usually, yes. Most garage door noise is dry rollers, loose hardware, or a spring that needs adjusting, all of which are sorted in a standard service. If a roller or bearing is worn out it gets replaced. A door that has started grinding or banging is worth booking before the part that is complaining actually breaks.
Yes. Thom has trained across multiple brands and systems, so he services sectional, roller and tilt doors and the common opener brands fitted on the Sunshine Coast. If a part needs replacing he matches it to your door. If a brand has stopped making a part, he will talk you through the options.
It usually pays for itself. A garage door is the heaviest moving thing in the house, and a small adjustment now is far cheaper than a snapped spring or a burnt-out motor later. A service also keeps the safety reversal working, which matters with kids or pets around. Think of it like a car service for your door.
