Massachusetts's climate presents a unique challenge for garage door openers.

Regular maintenance, especially before winter sets in, is key to preventing breakdowns. This includes checking the opener's track for debris and ensuring the weather seal at the bottom of the door remains intact to prevent water and snow from entering the garage.
