Garage door questions, answered for Oak Brook

Oak Brook sits in warm, wet summers and cold winters with snow and ice, driving repeated freeze-thaw cycles on exterior hardware. That is hard on a door — freeze-thaw cycles that crack seals and loosen hardware, road salt and snowmelt that corrode the lowest hardware, and doors frozen to the slab on the coldest mornings all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are doors frozen to the slab on cold mornings, openers straining against cold-thickened grease, rusted hardware from snowmelt and road salt, and loosened hardware from wide seasonal swings. We size springs and seals for Illinois's continental-climate region conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.

Census data puts 63% of Oak Brook homes at pre-1980 construction (median build year 1976) — old enough that many garages still run their original springs, opener, and seals, all long past rated life.
