Here are reasons why DIY garage door installation is not recommended:
Specialized Tools
Garage door installation requires specific tools such as counterbalance spring systems, torsion spring winding bars, and equipment for electrical components.
Complexity
Garage doors involve intricate mechanisms with springs, hinges, and electrical parts that require careful handling.
Safety Risks
Garage doors operate under high tension and pressure, posing a risk of injuries. Incorrect installation can damage other parts of the door as well.
Cost Considerations
While DIY installation may save on labor fees, it can lead to unnecessary repairs and additional expenses. Professional technicians often have access to discounted components and can ensure a job done right the first time.
