Yes, extreme weather conditions can significantly affect the performance of your garage door. In cold weather, metal parts such as springs and tracks can contract, making them more prone to breaking or malfunctioning. Ice or snow buildup around the tracks can also block the door from opening or closing properly. In hot weather, the door may warp or the lubricants on the moving parts can dry out, causing friction and making the door harder to operate. Additionally, high winds can cause doors to become misaligned or damage them, especially if the door is old or made from lightweight materials. Regular maintenance and ensuring the door is weatherproofed can help mitigate these effects and ensure proper operation year-round.
