<content:encoded><![CDATA[From storage to loading and unloading merchandise, your commercial overhead doors are an essential part of your business. After the initial installation of your commercial overhead door, it is important to make sure you properly maintain your door to avoid productivity delays, safety hazards, and frequent repairs. 
Preventive maintenance checks are a routine way to take care of your business’s overhead doors by finding and fixing any functionality issues early, or even before they occur. Investing in preventive maintenance for your business’s commercial overhead doors saves you time and money on frequent repairs.
The frequency of which you should perform these checks depends on how much your commercial overhead doors are used and the environment that they are in. At Premier, we recommend preventive maintenance checks every quarter to every six months. 
Remember, repairing commercial overhead doors is a highly specialized skill and if done improperly can result in serious injury. If you are performing your own maintenance check, do not attempt to remove, adjust, or loosen any hardware attached to the door’s springs without a qualified professional. 
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.1/72x72/2714.png" alt="✔" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Step 1: Visual inspection
First, visually inspect your overhead door along with its hardware for any signs of excessive wear and tear. A few things to check for include: 
<ul>
<li>Any visible damage or cracks in the door </li>
<li>Loose bolts or screws </li>
<li>Bent hinges </li>
<li>Damaged or frayed cables </li>
<li>Rusty or broken springs </li>
<li>Track alignment and door balance </li>
</ul>
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.1/72x72/2714.png" alt="✔" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Step 2: Lubricate moving parts
One of the keys to keeping your overhead door running smoothly for many years is making sure that your commercial door system stays properly lubricated. During your routine maintenance check, lubricate all moving parts of your overhead door including the hinges, tracks, weather stripping, and springs. We recommend using white lithium grease, but a spray on lubricant will work as well. Remember to remove any excess lubricant when you’re done. 
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.1/72x72/2714.png" alt="✔" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Step 3: Check motor operation 
The next step in your commercial overhead door maintenance check is ensuring that your door’s motor is operating correctly. When opening and closing your door, check to make sure your door is moving smoothly, not making any strange noises, and landing evenly on the ground when closed. This step is also a great time to replace the batteries in your door’s remote and make certain that all of your door’s safety features are functioning properly. 
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.1/72x72/2714.png" alt="✔" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Step 4: Know when to call a professional
This may be one of the most important steps in your maintenance checklist—knowing when it is time to call a professional for help. If you find that any of your overhead door’s parts are not working properly, do not try to fix it yourself. As we mentioned earlier, trying to repair your commercial overhead door without the correct tools and expertise can be very dangerous. All of your commercial overhead door repairs should be done by a trained professional. 
<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.1/72x72/2714.png" alt="✔" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Step 5: Skip the steps next time and hire Premier!
If you want to skip steps 1-4 altogether, it’s time to call our team of experts at Premier to learn about our preventive maintenance services. Premier Overhead Doors offers routine safety inspection and maintenance to guarantee that you get the most out of your commercial overhead doors. Hiring Premier’s team of professionals for your commercial overhead door preventive maintenance needs is a safe, convenient way to save time and money.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[High-speed rollup doors, also known as high performance doors, are used in a variety of industrial spaces in lieu of traditional doors.
These doors differ from sectional doors, PVC doors and roller shutters due to higher operating speed, ability to sustain a higher number of cycles, and lower maintenance and repair costs. They can be designed as vertical or horizontal, and they are often made-to-order with precise custom sizing and features.
They also offer significant advantages over traditional sectional doors, PVC fabric doors or roller shutter doors.
<h2>Profit and Productivity </h2>
High-speed doors increase the efficiency of production. A standing rolling door two meters high opens and closes in 11 seconds, compared to the 2 seconds it takes a high-speed rollup door of the same size.
Their higher opening speeds minimize waiting time in front of doors, which helps logistics and traffic flow, increasing profitability potential. 
It also limits costs associated with traditional doors, such as reduced repair costs from collisions, reduced workers compensation costs from fewer door-related injuries, and reduced HVAC costs from better environmental controls. 
<h2>Variety of Usage</h2>
These doors work well in any commercial industry, especially those where doors need to fulfill special requirements. 
For example, high-speed rollup doors benefit the food and beverage industry, where special temperature regulations are required. Shorter opening and closing times reduce cooling loss, allowing a smoother process and complying with safety regulations.
<h2>Employee Safety</h2>
Certain industries deal with various types of machinery and chemicals, some of which can be dangerous to employees. Time is of the essence when dealing with hazardous materials, and high performance doors can help. 
Installing high-speed rollup doors will section out some of the hazards from your employees, helping keep employees away from the danger. Their quick open and close time minimizes risk of exposure and harm so that your employees can remain safe.
Their high speed also helps deter unauthorized personnel who could jeopardize employee safety from getting into the area. 
<h2>Reduced Heat/Cooling Loss and Energy Efficiency</h2>
When you have an area contained with closed doors, it prevents warm air from escaping, or cold air from entering. With high-speed rollup doors, you reduce the risk of a room repeatedly rising or dropping in temperature. This helps increase the energy efficiency of your business and helps keep your employees comfortable. 
High-speed rollup doors also eliminate the need for de-icing in cold applications, as they can be equipped with heated side guides, insulated curtains, and defrosting-systems, essentially eliminating the need for de-icing.
<h2>Minimal Maintenance</h2>
High-speed rollup doors are easier to clean and maintain than traditional doors; doors with PVC curtains and stainless steel side covers are able to endure heavy use of cleaning agents, minimizing wear and tear with routine cleaning. 
In addition, high-speed rollup doors have minimal down time, even when they break down. Many feature a self-reinserting curtain after collisions – opening and closing the door returns the curtain into its side guides. They are designed with a patented push/pull technology that limits wear on moving parts, minimizing maintenance needs. 
High-speed rollup doors are known for having repairs that take only 15 minutes or less.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[What exactly is a loading dock leveler? If your commercial business or warehouse has a receiving area for trucks, then you are likely in need of loading dock levelers. Loading docks are placed in the gap between a truck trailer and your warehouse floor, preventing potential injury and allowing safe, efficient loading and unloading. Dock levelers in particular equalize the height and distance of that gap so the truck trailer is perfectly aligned with the warehouse floor.
So, why do you need a loading dock leveler? And how do you choose a loading dock leveler? In this blog, we’ll address both of these questions. And if your commercial warehouse is in need of a loading dock leveler, just <a href="https://premierohd.com/contact-us/">give us a call</a> and our professional technicians will set up a time to install one for you.
<h2>Why You Need a Loading Dock Leveler</h2>
Every truck trailer is different, and there’s never a guarantee that your warehouse dock will match the height of a truck trailer. Dock levelers allow you to adjust the height of your dock to allow for seamless loading and unloading. But there are other benefits to installing a loading dock leveler.
Increase Safety
As we mentioned previously, loading dock levelers provide a safer environment for workers. Without them, workers are at risk for injury because of the large space between the trailer and dock floor. If you want to make workers feel more at ease while simultaneously making their job more efficient, a loading dock leveler is the perfect solution!
Increase Efficiency
A loading dock leveler will also make the unloading and loading process much faster and more efficient. Loading and unloading items without a dock leveler is not only cumbersome and time-consuming, but it’s also dangerous. Loading dock levelers will increase the efficiency of your industrial warehouse by providing streamlined work processes.
<h2>How to Choose a Loading Dock Leveler</h2>
Not every loading dock leveler functions the same way. Below are a few different kinds of loading dock levelers and how they operate to help you decide which loading dock leveler is best for you and your business!
Mechanical
Mechanical loading dock levelers are manually operated and connected to the loading platform. Since they are manually operated, they do tend to perform at a slower pace. The upside? Mechanical loading dock levelers are probably the least expensive option.
Hydraulic
Hydraulic loading dock levelers are operated (you guessed it!) with hydraulic cylinders. These cylinders raise and lower the platform, and they also help the leveler perform at a faster rate. They’re quite easy to maintain and are known for being long-lasting as well. If you experience heavy traffic at your business, the hydraulic loading dock leveler might be the best option for you due to its exceptional durability.
Air
Loading dock levelers that are powered with air use airbags to raise and lower the platform. They, too, are simple to maintain and are cost-effective because they require less maintenance and require no hydraulic fluid.
There are many things to consider when choosing a loading dock leveler. But don’t worry! Premier Overhead Doors is here to answer any of your questions or concerns. <a href="https://premierohd.com/contact-us/">Contact us</a> today to learn more about our loading dock leveler services.

]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[Is your garage attached to your home? If the answer is yes, then you might want to consider if your garage is energy efficient or not. Your garage door likely shares a wall with a living area in your home, which makes indoor temperature regulation extremely difficult when your garage is not insulated like the other living areas in your home. This is why an insulated garage door can save you time and money by making your garage and your home more energy efficient.
The layers of insulation in energy-efficient garage doors are typically made out of polystyrene or polyurethane, a foam that spreads inside the door. The thicker the foam, the stronger your insulation will be. Insulated doors typically have double or triple layers, with triple layers having the most insulation value. In addition to insulation, you will also need proper seals and weather-stripping to prevent energy loss.
That’s where we come in! At Premier Overhead Doors, our garage door experts work with you to determine the best option for you and your home. In this blog, we’ll discuss a few reasons why you should consider an energy-efficient garage door.
<ol>
<li>Less Energy Consumption
If your garage door is not insulated, it creates a substantial difference in temperature between the interior of your home and the interior of your garage. This means your air conditioning and/or heating units will be working hard to maintain temperature regulation in your home, which can quickly become expensive and not energy-friendly. With an insulated garage door, the temperature between your home and the interior of your garage will be similar and stable, meaning you will consume less heating/cooling energy consumption.</li>
<li>A Comfortable Space for You & Your Vehicles
Insulated garage doors retain temperature more efficiently, so you and your vehicles won’t be exposed to potential harsh weather conditions. With an insulated garage door, your vehicles will be protected from the wear and tear that comes with extreme temperature. And if you use your garage as a work or recreational space, the insulation will provide a more comfortable space for you as well.</li>
<li>Reduction in Noise
Insulation also provides sound absorption and significantly diminishes the level of noise your garage door makes during operation. Nobody likes waking up to the raucous of a garage door closing or opening, so this feature benefits the whole family! Especially those whose room is adjacent to the garage.</li>
<li>A Longer Lifespan
Layers of insulation make energy-efficient garage doors far more durable than non-insulated garage doors. These layers protect the door from damage like dents, scratches, and harsh weather. You still need to keep up with preventive maintenance on the door, but its lifespan should be longer than a non-insulated garage door.</li>
</ol>
If you want a garage door that is eco-friendly and mitigates energy loss, we are here to help. It’s important to have your insulated garage door professionally installed to ensure it fits properly and achieves the most energy efficiency possible. <a href="https://premierohd.com/contact-us/">Contact us</a> today to learn more!

<content:encoded><![CDATA[With winter fast approaching, it’s important to consider how the harsh winter conditions might affect and/or damage your garage door. Cold temperatures, sleet, and rain can all affect how your garage door operates. Follow these quick 5 tips to prepare your garage door for the winter months before they arrive!
Oh, and just a quick reminder—if you don’t feel comfortable performing any of these preparatory steps, don’t hesitate to contact a professional like us. We can perform preventative maintenance on your garage door and inspect it for any issues it might face during the winter months.
<ol>

<li>Wipe Down the Weather Stripping
Weather strips prevent moisture and cold air from creeping inside your garage, and they are typically made out of rubber. Because they play such an important role in protecting your garage door, it’s important to clean the weather stripping and inspect it for tearing before the winter or any harsh season. To clean your weather stripping, simply spray it with bleach cleaner or scrub it down with dish soap. This will eliminate any mildew or dirt buildup, which will ultimately make the weather stripping last longer and keep your garage door protected all winter.
</li>
 
<li>Lubricate
Lubrication will make your garage door more weather-resistant and strengthen its material. Before the temperature begins to drop, coat all of your garage door’s metal parts (and the weather stripping, too) with a lubricant to keep your door fully functional. Don’t forget to remove any excess lubricant. After lubrication, open and close your garage door to make sure it is well-balanced and functioning smoothly without any jumps or kicks.
</li>
 
<li>Replace the Keypad Battery
If you have an external keypad for your garage door, it can be easy to overlook when considering preventative maintenance. Extreme winter conditions, however, can damage your keypad and quickly drain the battery. Replace the keypad’s battery before the winter to make sure it survives the cold months, and check it regularly to see if the lower temperatures, ice, or rain have damaged the keypad.
</li>
 
<li>Remove Any Ice
If ice or frozen rain ever builds up on or around your door, remove it as soon as possible. Ice can cause serious problems with the opening and closing of your garage door. Use salt or a shovel to melt or remove the ice, and check your garage door for smooth operation afterwards.
</li>
 
<li>Consider Installing Insulation
Insulation will make a significant difference in the temperature within your garage interior, making it more comfortable in the winter months while simultaneously protecting any fragile items you might have in the garage. Plus, insulating your garage door will help reduce your energy bills and save you money!
</li>
Again, if you have any concerns about these maintenance tips, don’t hesitate to <a href="https://premierohd.com/contact-us/">contact us</a>. Our experienced technicians can help prevent minor problems from turning into big ones during the harsh winter months. We offer regular preventive maintenance and repair services to ensure your garage door operates optimally in every season.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Your commercial overhead door is a significant part of your business structure, and it is likely used multiple times a day during all parts of the year. Because of this frequent usage, it is important for you to know how to keep your commercial overhead door operating smoothly for many years to come after its initial installation. Here are 2 ways you can make your commercial door last longer:
(Before we get started, it’s also important to remember that if your commercial door is experiencing any issues, contact a professional to inspect it. Attempting repair or preventative maintenance work on your own can be dangerous, and commercial overhead doors should always be handled by a trained professional.)
<ol>
<li>Inspect & Listen
The most essential step in ensuring your commercial door’s longevity is simply observing your door each time you use it. Is the door moving smoothly or is it jolting? Is the door operating quietly or is it making strange noises? Is the door landing evenly on the ground? As soon as you notice an issue or concern with your commercial door, you may want to have it inspected and, if necessary, repaired by a professional.

<li>Preventative Maintenance
There are also multiple preventative maintenance steps you can take to make your commercial door last longer. A thorough check up of your commercial door system is perhaps the best way to ensure you get the longest life out of your door.
</li>
<ul>
<li>a) Consistent Lubrication
Keeping your commercial door system lubricated will add years of successful operation. White lithium grease provides the best results, but you can also use spray lubricant. We recommend using a lubricant at least twice a year to keep your commercial overhead door working properly.
</li>
<li>b) Examine the Hardware
Again, your commercial overhead door moves up and down frequently throughout the year. So much constant movement can lead to loose hardware. Examine the hardware of your commercial door consistently, and if you notice any problems, contact a trained professional.
</li>
<li>c) Paint Your Door
Keeping your commercial overhead door freshly painted prevents rusting, which ultimately ensures a longer lifespan for your door system. If you have painted doors, it is essential to check them frequently for areas where the paint is peeling or deteriorating. If you notice any peeling spots, paint over them to prevent your door from rusting.
</li>
</li>
</ul>
</ol>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[For many, commercial overhead doors act as an extra layer of security, protecting the valuable space within your building. Your overhead doors, then, are a vital part of your business, and it is important to keep them in working condition. Periodically, your overhead door will need general maintenance. If you ignore regular maintenance inspections, your overhead door might begin experiencing problems.
In this blog, we will discuss some warning signs that your commercial overhead door might need repair. (Note: if your commercial door is experiencing any of the following issues, you should have them repaired by a professional like us!)
<ol>
<li>Your door won’t open or close.The most obvious sign that your door needs repair is if it won’t open or close. This can be a frustrating issue, and it is likely the result of broken/worn down cables, springs that need to be replaced, or tracks that are jammed. Each of these issues are potentially dangerous and should be handled by a professional overhead door repair service.</li>
<li>Your door is running slowly or skipping.There are multiple possible reasons for a slow-moving or jerking overhead door. For example, your overhead door might be running slowly due to old age. If you’ve gone several years without an overhead door maintenance check or upgrade, your overhead door will begin to show signs of age like running slowly. Slow operation might also be due to insufficient lubrication of your tracks.</li>
<li>Your door is making abnormal noises.A noise overhead door is a telltale sign that it needs repairs. The motor could be experiencing issues or your door may be experiencing a mechanical problem. Again, it is important to hire a professional to inspect the noise and make any necessary replacements or repairs on the overhead door.</li>
<li>Your door has a delayed response time.Your door might not only be running slowly, but also responding slowly. This issue might be due to insufficient lubrication as well.</li>
<li>Your door is uneven or unbalanced.An overhead door that seems out of balance must be immediately repaired. Unbalanced doors are typically the result of a worn-out spring, and eventually, the spring will snap and your overhead door will fail to function.</li>
</ol>
Delaying necessary repairs like the ones above could result in costly, inconvenient, and potentially dangerous emergency door replacement later.
