Repair,
Service and Installation
A garage door is the largest moving object in your home and
because of the large number of small parts, its installation
is highly technical. Connecting the springs can be
particularly dangerous and proper installation is critical
to the performance of your door. Professional
installers can typically install a door in a few hours and
are careful to make sure safety requirements are met.
Installations by most homeowners typically span several days
and cause much frustration. In addition, incorrect
installation can void certain warranties, so we recommend a
professional company like ours handle the job for you.

Old Springs - Your garage door’s springs are arguably the most important and most dangerous part of your door. Springs wear out. When they break, injury can result. If you have an older garage door, have your springs inspected by a professional technician and replaced if needed. If your door has two springs, both should be replaced, even if one is not broken. This will not only prevent any damage caused by the breaking of the second spring, but also keep your door working efficiently.
Loud Springs - Springs can squeak and be noisy. This is caused by normal use and does not necessarily indicate a problem. Before calling a professional service technician, use a spray-on lubricant (recommended especially for garage doors). If the noise persists, call a professional garage door installer for service.
WARNING - Springs are under high tension. Only qualified persons should adjust them.
Garage door springs, cables, brackets, and other hardware attached to the springs are under very high tension and, if handled improperly, can cause serious injury. Only a qualified professional or a mechanically experienced person should adjust them, but only by carefully following the manufacturer's instructions.
The torsion springs (the springs above the door) should only be adjusted by a professional. Do not attempt to repair or adjust torsion springs yourself.
A restraining cable or other device should be installed on the extension spring (the spring along the side of the door) to help contain the spring if it breaks.
WARNING - Never remove, adjust, or loosen the screws on the bottom brackets of the door. These brackets are connected to the spring by the lift cable and are under extreme tension.
Lubrication
Regularly lubricate the moving parts of the door. However, do not lubricate plastic idler bearings. Consult the door owner's manual for the manufacturer's recommendation.

Southlake is an affluent city in northeastern Tarrant and southeastern Denton Counties in the U.S. state of Texas. It is a suburb of Fort Worth [3] and Dallas. Southlake is known for the exemplary Carroll Independent School District, large homes, and Southlake Town Square. It is also home to the 7 time state champion Southlake Carroll football team.
From the beginning to 1900: Pioneering the Land
It was the land -- a long, narrow strip of post oak and blackjack oak forest teeming with wild game known as the Eastern Cross Timbers and prairie grasslands that lay on either side – that enticed people to stay in what is now Southlake.
Nomadic Indians – the Caddo, Plains Apache, Kiowa and Comanche – moved in and out of the Cross Timbers skirmishing with each other, and the Spaniards, determined to establish missions, searched for settlement sites. According to Southlake Historical Society historian Jack Wiesman in his book, “An Historical Perspective of Southlake,” soldiers such as Captain Don Ramon traveled north from Mexico through the Hill Country only to face the dense Eastern Cross Timbers forest. Ramon noted that after hacking his way through the “monte grande,” he was weary and grateful to reach a clearing, but he had lost two knives in the effort.
settlers were enticed to the area from the mid-1800s on, wooed by land grants and a chance to start over. The very things offered by the land -- forest, water and game – were what they were searching for. Families traveled from Missouri, Tennessee and other Southern states and stopped to make a home here; using logs, they built their houses and churches, including Lonesome Dove Baptist Church in the late 1840s and White’s Chapel Methodist Church in the early 1870s.
They tilled the fertile prairie land, and more and more families arrived. As they staked their claims, it was inevitable that clashes with the Indians would result. (Due to a treaty noted below, there were few Indian problems in now-Southlake, although settlers kept a watchful eye out for Indians.)
One well-known Indian raid in North Texas was the 1836 Comanche attack on Parker's Fort, located a mere thirty miles west of Waco. Some settlers were killed but others escaped, including nearly-16-year-old Malinda Frost Dwight Hill, who in 1870 was buried by her sons in Lonesome Dove Cemetery in what's now Southlake. (Malinda's first husband, baby daughter and mother also escaped.) Captured was Cynthia Ann Parker, who remained with the Indians for almost 25 years until Texas Rangers returned her to her white family. Isaac Parker, her uncle, brought her to Birdville, Texas, and tried to resettle her on his farm, but she never was able to move back into the white man’s world. (See Isaac Parker's cabin at the Log Cabin Village in Fort Worth. Below is the plaque that Malinda Hill's
