Squeaky garage door

 A couple of weeks ago, I  noticed my garage door was kind of squeaky on its way up and down.  Picked up a can of this silicone lube, watched an instruction video and spent about 15 minutes hitting all the hinges and roller axles.  It really worked well and can't believe how quiet it is now.

    Did you get the springs as well? I had to have one replaced a little over a year ago and they repair guy told me unlubed springs are a big source of their income.

    I used the same product on my garage door. Fred is right,  you need to lube the big springs as well. The guy that replaced my broken spring several years ago told me essentially the same thing.
