It’s finally time to install a new garage door. Now what? Here are some tips to make garage door installation in Glenview, IL, go off without a hitch.
Remove Vehicles from the Garage
The installation crew needs room to work. Garage door installers can’t do their jobs when cars are in the garage. So, move the vehicles before the installers arrive. Park the vehicles on the street so the installers can park their vehicles in the driveway.
Clean the Garage
Garages are used for many things and can get messy. Before installation day:
- Take some time to clean the garage to make it easier for the installation crew to work.
- Move lawn equipment, trash bins, tolls, and other items out of the garage.
- If the garage has hanging bike or storage racks, remove these before installation.
Keep Kids and Pets Away from the Area
When the installation crew arrives, make sure kids and pets are far away from the work area. Pets are curious and won’t think twice about getting under a person’s feet, which can cause serious injuries.
Inspect the Door
Make sure to inspect the door when it arrives. Check that it’s the door ordered and that there’s no damage to the door. Take pictures. If the door is damaged during the installation, photos serve as proof that the door was in good condition when it arrived and strengthens any damage claims.
