Winter Weather
Winter in Canada is no picnic. And this year’s up and down temperatures, extreme snowfalls, and blustery winds played havoc with traffic, rooftops, trees…and your garage doors. What happens to your commercial garage door when winter weather rips through?
- Cold temperatures – cold temperatures can cause the metal components of your garage door and loading docks to contract, creating issues with regular operations. Bouncing back between colder and warmer temperatures means the metal expands and contracts, worsening the damage. You might see problems with the tracks, springs, or even opening the doors or leveling the docks.
- Ice and snow – ice and snow accumulating against your commercial garage door and loading docks adds weight to the parts. This weight can cause the door or dock to shift or become misaligned. It could also damage the panels or weatherstrip on the door.
- Moisture – many parts of the country also saw a lot of rain this winter and into the early spring. Over time, rust can creep in, damaging the metal on the door or loading dock.
If you are installing or replacing your garage door or loading docks, ask O’Brien about corrosion-resistant and winter weather-resistant options like rubber doors and insulated stainless steel doors.
