Garage door work for Noma properties

Big Bend Services, Inc. works on garage doors in Noma, in Holmes County. We renew the weather seals at the bottom, sides and top of the door, repair openers that stop answering the remote or the wall button, and fit new openers. We also replace springs and lift cables, and repair rollers, hinges, tracks, door sections and safety sensors. A door past repair is replaced with a new door measured to the opening.

Noma requests go to our office in Wewahitchka. Call (850) 819-6031 or send the form with the full street address and what the door is doing, and you will get a written quote.

Weather seals

Gaps around a closed garage door in Noma

A closed garage door should meet the floor and the frame all the way around. When you can see daylight under or beside it, find water on the floor after rain, or see leaves and insects coming in under the door, a seal has worn, torn or pulled away.

  • Bottom seal

    A rubber or vinyl strip runs along the bottom of the door in a channel. It flattens, cracks and tears with use, and it is replaced with a new strip sized to the channel.

  • Side and top seals

    A flexible strip on the frame at each side and across the top closes the gap between the door face and the jambs. It is renewed when it has hardened, split or come loose.

  • A worn bottom channel

    If the channel that holds the bottom seal is bent or rusted, the new seal will not stay in. The channel is replaced with the seal.

  • A door that stops short

    If the door stops an inch above the floor, the opener close limit may need setting down, rather than a new seal.

Reading the gap

Where the light or water shows points to the seal that has failed.

  • At the bottom corners

    The ends of the bottom seal have worn short, or the ends of its channel are open.

Materials

Seal types matched to the door

The seal is matched to the door and the gap it has to close.

  • Bottom seals

    A flat strip, a bulb that folds as it meets the floor, or a thicker bulb for a floor with a dip.

  • Roll-up door seals

    A roll-up door takes its bottom seal on the bar along its lower edge rather than in a channel on a section.

  • Seals between sections

    Some doors have seals built into the joints between sections. Those come with the sections and are not replaced on their own.

Seal or door

When a new seal will not close the gap

Some gaps come from the door, not the seal, and a new strip will not fix them.

  • A gap at one end only

    If the door hangs lower on one side, the gap at the high end comes from a cable or spring. The cable is repaired or the spring is replaced, and the door then closes level.

  • A bent bottom section

    If the bottom section is bent, the seal cannot sit flat along it. The section is straightened or replaced.

  • A door that will not close fully

    A door that stops short and goes back up has a sensor or opener fault, repaired on its own.

Remote and wall button

When the door ignores the remote or the button

If pressing the remote or the wall button does nothing, the fault is on the opener side, not the door. Which controls still work decides where the repair is.

  • All remotes dead, wall button fine

    The receiver in the opener or its antenna is the likely cause. The opener is repaired, or replaced if the receiver cannot be.

  • Wall button dead, remotes fine

    The wall control or its wire has failed. The control or wire is replaced.

  • Light flashes, door stays open

    If the remote makes the opener light flash but the door will not close, the remote is working. The fault is in the safety sensors.

  • Nothing works at all

    The opener has lost power or failed inside. Tell us whether the opener light comes on.

Repair the opener or fit a new one

Repair makes sense while the opener motor is sound. When the motor itself has failed, or the opener is too old for current remotes and parts, a new opener is fitted. It comes with its own remotes, wall control and safety sensors, and it goes on the existing door if the door runs freely. Remotes from the old opener may not work with a new one.

FAQ

Noma garage door questions

Have another question? Call (850) 819-6031.

Can a seal be added to a door that never had one?
Yes. A bottom seal and a retainer can be fitted to a door that lacks them, and side and top seals can be added to the frame.
Does a new garage door come with seals?
A new door comes with its own bottom seal. Seals along the sides and top of the frame are renewed along with it if the old ones are worn.
How can I tell a seal has hardened?
Press it with a thumb. A sound seal gives and springs back. One that feels stiff, has cracks along its length, or stays pressed flat has hardened and no longer closes the gap.
