Most homeowners don't think much about their garage door until it stops working. Small signs like unusual noises, slow movement, or the door stopping halfway often get ignored. Over time, these issues usually point to worn springs, loose cables, or rollers that need attention.

Weather changes can make these problems show up faster, especially in colder or dry climates. A garage door that feels heavy or moves unevenly can become unsafe quickly. Stopping use early and getting it checked can prevent bigger damage or sudden failure.

Just sharing in case it helps someone avoid a surprise breakdown.
