Fast forward to 2019: garages and their respective doors are not just built for functionality, but to be aesthetically pleasing too. As more and more people have begun to invest in real estate and flip houses, curb appeal is becoming more prevalent, and rightfully so!<\/p>\n<p>So, when you\u2019re shopping around for either a brand

door company is making sure they have strict guidelines and quality control standards to ensure the safety of their employees, as well as their clients. There are specific regulations that come directly from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as well as other federal and state agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Companies that emphasize their high safety standards and lower incidence of on-the-job accidents are the ones to look for when hiring a garage door company because they take safety measures very seriously. If you\u2019re unsure, or if safety concerns or quality control aren\u2019t mentioned anywhere within their website or advertising, you may want to reconsider and look for a company that openly states safety as a top priority.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\"><\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-5 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;\"><h3 class=\"title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:20;line-height:1.45;\"><strong>Product and Service Offerings<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-3\"><p>It\u2019s important to ask or do your own research on what types of products and services your potential garage door company offers. With so many available options for customization, it\u2019s good to see what materials, styles and colors might work best for your garage door. Keeping that in mind, it\u2019s also important to check out your chosen company\u2019s website and what types of services they offer. Some companies may specialize in both repairs and new door installation, and may also offer regular maintenance plans to keep your garage door in great shape.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\"><\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-6 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;\"><h3 class=\"title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:20;line-height:1.45;\"><strong>Reputation<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4\"><p>The internet makes it possible to research just about anything nowadays, which can be a great help when it comes to researching a garage door company you are interested in working with. Now we have sites like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yelp.com\/biz\/the-up-and-up-garage-doors-austin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Yelp<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homeadvisor.com\/rated.TheUpUpGarageDoors.77527602.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HomeAdvisor<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.angieslist.com\/companylist\/us\/tx\/austin\/the-up-and-up-garage-doors-reviews-9520162.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Angie\u2019s List<\/a> to help make these decisions easier. The only drawback is that some sites will allow for companies to pay a fee to list their names at the top to gain more business.<\/p>\n<p>One of the best non-biased places to search for a local reputable service provider is through the Better Business Bureau, which is a great free tool for sourcing just about any type of business online.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, it\u2019s important to do research on how long the company has been in business as well as how experienced their technicians are and make sure the company maintains licensing and insurance requirements.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\"><\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-7 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;\"><h3 class=\"title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:20;line-height:1.45;\"><strong>Springs and Hardware<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p>In a few of our previous posts, we\u2019ve talked about the <a href=\"https:\/\/theupandupdoors.com\/blog\/replacement-cost-of-garage-door-springs-in-austin-tx\/\" rel=\"noopener\">difference between torsion springs and extension springs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Torsion springs sit directly above the garage door and extension springs are housed on the sides of the door. Torsion springs typically last between 15,000 and 20,000 turn cycles, whereas, extension springs usually last for up to 10,000 cycles.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to ask about the differences between the two with regard to functionality, cost and durability so that you can choose what works best for your needs. It\u2019s also important to maintain the integrity of the springs and hardware with lubrication when needed and reach out to your garage door company with any issues before trying to fix them yourself.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\"><\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-8 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;\"><h3 class=\"title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:20;line-height:1.45;\"><strong>Product Warranty<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\"><p>When you make any large purchase, it\u2019s also important to ask about the warranty options for garage door repairs or new installations. Some may offer guarantees directly through the manufacturer for parts, but labor might not be covered under this and should be discussed with the company you choose to make sure that your door will be covered should anything happen or if any defects are found down the road.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\"><\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-9 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;\"><h3 class=\"title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:20;line-height:1.45;\"><strong>Emergency Services<\/strong><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-7\"><p>Just like getting a flat tire on your car or getting locked out of your house, garage door issues can happen during any hour of the day.
