Windows are an added feature that can improve a garage door's appearance.  Paladuim or beveled windows, or windows that expand the look of the windows in your house can have a dramatic effect on your home's appearance. Of course these windows may be opaque or semi-opaque for privacy.

This issue could easily be avoided by hiring a garage door specialist to do annual maintenance on the door. Failure to keep parts oiled baseding on the suppliers suggestions could bring about unnecessary wear and at some point much more severe repair troubles. You could lube and oil your door yourself. You can spray either a silicon solution or light oil to your rollers, joints and springs. If this does not stop your squeaking and screeching, after that you need to call a garage door specialist.
