What Rush Valley asks of a garage door

Rush Valley's open, rural setting is hard on garage and shop doors.

Wide-open wind

Little stands between Rush Valley and the wind. Gusts push on wide doors, loosen hinges and tracks, and bend doors left open.

Gravel roads and a dry valley

Most driveways and roads around Rush Valley are gravel, and the valley floor is dry for much of the year. Every truck that pulls in raises dust that settles in the tracks and on the opener rail. Rollers with sealed bearings and a yearly wipe-down of the tracks keep a shop door from grinding.

Cold winter mornings

Cold mornings break tired springs and slow openers, especially in unheated shops.

Rush Valley, Tooele County Named for Rush Lake, the town was called Onaqui until it took its current name in 1972.

Homes and garage doors in Rush Valley

Rush Valley is mostly rural homes on large lots, with shops, barns and equipment buildings, and the Onaqui Mountains to the west. Many shop doors were sized for tractors and stock trailers, so they're taller and heavier than a home garage door, and many have been patched more than once.

Big doors on outbuildings often run on extension springs and older openers. When one part fails, it's worth checking the whole system, because the other spring and the cables have seen the same years of use. We'll tell you plainly whether the door is worth repairing.

Local tip: If a shop door sits unused for long stretches, cycle it a few times a month so springs and bearings don't seize.
