    I find putting a cardboard in the back of the spring and spray makes it easier not to ruin the drywall. Cause once that lub gets on the drywall, it's so hard to get it off.
  • @SamLopez11
    Thank you so much for this video! I would also add to check all the hinge nuts- many of mine were not torqued all the way and one was rattling because it was so loose!
  • I followed what you did and I've never had my garage door run so smooth and quiet .Your directions are well worth following. Thanks for the great instructions.
  • @kairlf
    Thank you so much for your extremely clear and detailed instructions for lubricating my garage door. I really appreciated the fact that your camera zoomed in so that we could see the small details of exactly where to put the lubricant!
  • Thank you for the down-to-the-point video. It was a very informative video. I learned what to do, and what lubricants not to use.
  • @user-eg7hc9be6r
    Didn't realize I needed to lube the springs themselves too. Thanks!. Excellent, helpful video! Thank you !.
  • @mikeklein4949
    Great advice. How many people do what I do and forget this important maintenance measure. Simple too! Thanks.

    I lube the hinges on my garage door about twice a month because I park my car in the garage. I never thought about lubricating the springs and cable wheels. I cleaned the wheel tracts and lubed the spring and cable wind up wheels and the door is much quieter. Thank you for the video.
  • @g.fortin3228
    thank you.. had no idea the large spring needed lube. great info, appreciated !

    I can't believe this popped up. I literally just did this this morning. I use an old rag and keep the over spray from getting on the wall behind. I usually do this once a year in spring, but if I hear it getting louder, I do it a second time. Had one spring pop about 5 years ago after 13 years in our house.

    I use a good door lube for the rollers, drums, cables, pins and hinges, as it leaves a coating behind and lasts much, much longer than WD-40. I do like using WD-40 to spray down the springs... it displaces water, soaks into the metal to repel water. My springs and hinges look like new, 15+ years on and live in Western NY.
  • @simbanair
    Thank you for your video. I saved a lot of money for sure.
  • well done...THX for a great video........I never knew I was supposed to lube the big spring on top...live and learn..!!!!
  • I found that WD-40 makes dry silicone lube that has a strong pressurized nozzle that doesn't fly off to be really good. The pressure pushes a stream into the tight hinge cavities that normally can't get penetrated by other types I've tried.
