I have a liftmaster wifi model that is only about 2 years old, along with the door itself. Everything has been operating fine until I decided to spray lube the hinges and spring. I noticed the door had gotten noticeably louder lately so figured it was time for a little maintenance. Once I lubed...

I had a shelf come crashing down and the wall space is now covered in peg board. I put up a 4 x 8 sheet and bought some multi-piece packs of hangers etc to get started. The thing I'm realizing about this board is that its a "organize as you go along" type of thing. My tools are in the tool...

My garage door makes a little bit too much vibration noise where I think its not good for the door. I'm not sure if its sprocket noise or what. I've tried adjusting the the chain to manufacture specs and it actually made it worse. Does the force adjustment have anything to do with with...
