Garage Door Parts Can Be Perilous - Here’s What Consumers Should Know

Posted: Dec 04, 2013
Author: Doors by Nalley of Lake Norman, Inc.

You could describe your garage door as a moveable wall, and when it’s combined with an automatic opener, it’s the biggest and probably the most dangerous moving object in your home. In fact, according to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, more than 30,000 Americans are injured by malfunctioning garage door parts every year.

What’s more alarming is that this number counts only for injuries that required medical treatment.  The vast majority are not reported.

Professional installation, maintenance and inspection of garage door parts are essential to ensure trouble-free, safe operation. An incorrectly adjusted automatic opener or door can exert a lethal force when the garage door closes. This could result in serious injury, or even death, from being trapped under the door or hit by a closing door.

Take the following simple precautions to protect your family and friends from possible harm:

  • Never walk or stand under a moving door and don’t play ‘beat the door’. It’s not funny – it’s seriously dangerous.
  • In case anyone is pinned by the door, teach everyone in your household how to use the emergency release.
  • Garage door parts are not toys. Don’t let children fiddle with remote controls. Keep them out reach.
  • When using the transmitter or push button, watch the door until it comes to a complete standstill.
  • Teach your children about garage door safety. Explain the danger of getting trapped under the door.
  • Tell children never to play near, or under, an open garage door and to keep their fingers and hands clear of hinges, joints, springs and other garage door parts.
