Next time I'm going to use a cheap paint brush to spead the oil on. Spray some in the cap or something and then brush it on.

how often do you perform this?

Awesome thank you

I did mine every year and the spring broke.

Awesome video thank you😊

I wear a mask or I wind up tasting the lubricant for the next few hours.

What about the electric opener chain and track?

W D 40 is not a lube it’s a water displacement. W D stands for water displacement. I used it to clean my auto loader shotgun and forgot to lube after. Made it a 1 shot gun.

Very helpful my friend. So happy I accidentally found you. Happy New Year. You're helping me with mine.-Russ

Thanks was informative and interesting. Think you forgot to show how you lube the end drum but I think it was easy as the other hinges.

Do you need the back door lubed as well

Excellent video and very useful, how often should you do this? Thank you

GREAT JOB Thanks so much !!

My garage door guy says never to use WD40.

Too much talk

Thanks for sharing

Very useful information ... thanks!

Nice review, thanks

I understand bearing. But when do you replace the wheels. I clean all the tracks and spray all the hinges and my wheels still making noise

Thank you for this utube I never thought of this🤣

Thank you so much for sharing; My garage door was making some squeaky noise and this idea didn't go thru my mind. Great job

I thought I was the only person who actually did this kind of maintenance on doors. But I did do this on trailers and trucks for 40 years.

Wish you spent a little more time explaining the difference between silicone and mineral oil based lubricants. They are like oil & water and can't be mixed. What type do manufacturers recommend?

Oh I was thinking this was about something else entirely. Puff daddy brought me here lol

My garage door is getting enough drag I think the pressure sensor is activating and it won't close. Going to do a thorough cleaning and lube following this.

AHHH, overspray all over the perfectly painted wall.

What about the ball bearings in the wheels? Should they get grease or silicone?

I use a piece of cardboard behind and angled under the springs that stops the wall being hit and catch drips. Not fun painting the garage and paint repelling from the silicone on the drywall.

👍👍

WD 40 makes a silicone spray also. Would you recommend that one?

What about the bearings? They need to be lubricated too!

What about the bearings! You need to lube them as well

I cannot go on a ladder so I guess I’m screwed.

do not use spray lubricant on spring plugs just wrong use bar chain oil with a brush .with door in open position .keep oil1 inch away from plugs.

WD40....not at the gatage door. Take Silikon Spray like any ptofessional would do.

I also lube the overhead chain and wheels since there are small wheel bearings that will wear down without lubrication like on a car. Everything will run smoother and quieter !!!😊😊

Omg this is so incorrect on so many things. The killer was don’t oil the bearing in the rollers. You haven’t been in the garage door industry very long, have you.

nice house with 4 car garage

A brush with lube will go way farther than those spray cans.

Thank you!!

You may have saved me $1,000 in unnecessary repairs. Thank you.

I'm glad you don't recommend wd40 for this. It's not really a lube, and really shouldn't be used as one.

Why am I watching this video? I don’t have a garage door, I don’t even have a garage.

Great vid. Thx

Should I lubricate any part of the motor itself chain or slide bar?

No mention of the long screw gear or chain?

I'm going to lay down.

What about the chain and release latch mechanism? Those need to be lubricated as well!

Tip I taught myself. I used pieces of cardboard, placing them behind where I was spraying in addition to shop towels. Cardboard helps protect areas from spray/over spray.
