Why do Garage Door Rollers Break?
Plastic rollers should be changed occasionally. They are more susceptible to the environment and must be greased multiple times every year. Even if you take precautions, plastic rollers can quickly dry rot in freezing temperatures.
Steel and nylon rollers need equal preservation, but with appropriate care, they may last considerably longer. The drawback of nylon and steel rollers is the ball-bearing housing. This housing will grow and contract with time, finally giving way. This might result in your roller tilting and dragging on its stem.
Common Types of Rollers - You Need to Replace
Plastic Rollers
Plastic rollers are the basic type of garage door rollers that revolve around a steel shaft. They do not have ball bearings and are only intended to last a few years.
Steel Rollers
Steel rollers are more durable than plastic rollers. But they lack lubrication. While rotating around the pivot, the door needs lubrication to work smoothly, otherwise a strange noise disrupts your routine and comfort.
When Do You Need to Replace Garage Door Rollers?
Rollers have cycle ratings like other garage door parts. This means that their lifespan is restricted to a certain number of cycles. Your garage door performs many cycles whenever it is pushed and pulled. A home garage door typically cycles five times each day. So, during a year, it undergoes at least 1,500 cycles.
In general, you may consult your garage door system’s handbook to determine the lifespan of its various parts, including the rollers. You can easily calculate how often garage door rollers need to be changed. However, the material used to make the garage door roller determines its longevity and quality.
