Garage door questions, answered for Port Lavaca

Port Lavaca sits in hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year. That is hard on a door — salt-tinged coastal air that accelerates rust near the shore, storm-season wind that stresses panels and bottom seals, and morning condensation that collects on cold metal hardware all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity, sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, and rusted bottom brackets on damp slabs. We size springs and seals for Texas's humid subtropical region conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.

The call we get most in Port Lavaca is swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity. Port Lavaca has predominantly single-family homes with attached garages, plus a core of older in-town residences, so sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity turns up often too. We carry the common parts on the truck for a single-visit fix.
