Garage doors can get damaged quite easily. A garage panel, no matter what it is made out of, is no match for the car that doesn't break in time. Of course, if one or more of your panels is damaged, you want to get it fixed as quickly as possible. It could be a security risk if you have a lot of valuables in your garage. Furthermore, you might need to worry about the weather and how a broken garage can affect the efficiency of your home. So, you might need to call an emergency garage repair service to immediately fix your problem. This article explains a few possible solutions to damage to garage door.
Damaged Panels
The best case scenario is usually that your panels, and nothing else, are damaged. Most importantly, if your frames seem to still be in good condition, you will have a much easier repair on your hand. That is, the old, broken panel can be pulled out of the frame and then a new one can be installed. Emergency repair services will usually offer a temporary solution until they are able to get their hands on the replacement panel. Of course, this may take a few days because the replacement might need to order directly from the manufacturer. You might also have the option for quicker repair if you are willing to change all of your panels. If two or three of your panels are damaged, it might be the best choice. On top of this, your old panels (the ones that weren't damaged) might have faded from sun exposure over the years. So, when you install the new panel, even if it is exact same style and color, it might look out of place.
Damaged Panels and Frames
If your frames are bent, an emergency garage door repair service will be able to temporarily seal you your garage while replacement parts are ordered and the construction begins. This is definitely going to be more expensive than just replacing the panels. The damage to your garage could have also extended to the coils and opening mechanism. Similarly, replacing these products is going to take a couple of days.
Any severe damage to your garage probably won't be fully fixed within a couple of hours. However, professionals can come to your property and immediately diagnosed the problem, order the appropriate replacement parts, and start to get everything in order within a couple of hours.
