Drum Replacement Service

Assessment and Diagnosis

The service begins with an assessment by a garage door technician. They inspect the door, identify issues with the drums, and determine whether repair or replacement is necessary.

Removal of Old Drums

If garage door drum replacement is needed, the technician begins by disconnecting the garage door from the opener and then releases the tension on the torsion springs. The old drums are then carefully removed from the torsion shaft.

Installation of New Drums

New drums, matched to the specifications of the garage door system, are installed onto the torsion shaft. Proper alignment and positioning are crucial during this step to ensure smooth door operation.

Reassembly and Testing

Once the new drums are securely in place, the technician reattaches the cables and adjusts the tension on the springs to ensure balanced lifting. They then reconnect the door to the opener and conduct thorough testing to confirm that the door moves smoothly and operates correctly.

Adjustment and Calibration

The technician performs adjustments as needed to fine-tune the door’s balance and alignment. This step ensures that the door opens and closes evenly and without any jerking or uneven movement.

Lubrication and Maintenance

After the replacement, the technician lubricates the moving parts of the door system, including the drums, to reduce friction and prolong the life of the components. They may also provide maintenance tips for the homeowner to ensure ongoing smooth operation.

Safety Checks

A crucial aspect of the service involves safety checks to verify that the door operates safely, with all safety features functioning correctly.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I don’t normally make reviews but I felt I needed to today.  We just moved into our new home and found the garage door to be in bad shape.  I called Keen Garage door repair after seeing their flyer in the mail.  I always try to look for a family owned Sonoma County Business when I can.  The phone was answered after the second ring.  The women that I spoke with was kind and friendly.  On the day of service, Levi arrived.  A true gentleman and hard worker.  He quickly identified the problems we were facing and came up with a reasonable solution.  I felt Levi was honest and respectful. He represented himself and the company with pride and professionalism. From start to finish, Keen Garage Door was a great choice.

When I called last week they first made sure it was not an emergency.
Skylar, The technician, showed up on time on the day we scheduled.
He saw and fixed the problem and also did a thorough check correcting issues of 20
Years of use and some original installation problem that created more problems.
When Skylar left my garage door works quieter and better than it ever did.
Very pleased with Keen Garage Door and Skylar’s work.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Keen Garage Doors restored my faith. From my first phone inquiry with Robin on the phone to a lot of “hand holding” and explaining my options, I was well taken care of. I definitely shopped around and it was owner Jeramie’s personable, knowledgeable responsiveness that made me feel secure and ready to replace an original, old wood sectional door and a non-functioning motor.
This morning senior Technician  Derek Estill came to install the door and it was an efficient, conscious, smooth process. The result: an automatic garage door that is clean, quiet, and it looks so nice! Very pleased! I have never posted on Yelp or internet reviews before. Keen Garage Doors inspired me to share my joy and ease and gratitude for excellent service from beginning to end!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A big thanks to Levi Slade for repairing my gate.  I was not able to get the original company that installed the circuit board to stand behind their work.  Levi came out, diagnosed the problem, got me a new board and installed it.  He was friendly, efficient and very understanding to my problem.  I highly recommend Keen Garage Doors.
