Garage Door Center Bearings
Garage Door Center Bearing Replacement
Center bearings are usually located within a torsion spring to prevent friction when the door is in motion. They play an important role in the operation and stability of a sectional garage door.
While they’re made from tough materials, they’re susceptible to wear like all garage door parts and will need to be replaced eventually.
At Precision, we install high-quality garage door center bearings to keep your door working smoothly and safely.
How Long Can I Expect the Center Bearings to Last?
A garage door center bearing’s expected lifespan can fluctuate based on a range of factors, including quality, maintenance, frequency of use, and the surrounding environment.
On average, typical center bearings can be expected to last around 10,000 operational cycles.
Why Do Center Bearings Break?
- It may be supporting too much weight and break under the pressure
- The garage door was installed incorrectly or isn’t properly aligned, which can place uneven pressure on the center bearing
- It was damaged by impact like a vehicle accident
- It got rusty or corroded over time
