Garage door questions, answered for Winthrop

Winthrop sits in harsh winters with heavy snowfall and ice, brief mild summers, and severe freeze-thaw stress much of the year. That is hard on a door — deep winter cold that stiffens springs and grease, doors iced to the slab on sub-zero mornings, and ice dams that bind the bottom panel to the threshold all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are ice- and snow-jammed tracks, frozen, sluggish openers in unheated garages, freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals, and ice dams binding the bottom panel to the threshold. We size springs and seals for Minnesota's cold northern climate conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.
