May is Garage Door Safety Month , and IDA has been sharing helpful resources with members to promote best practices. The campaign encourages everyone to Look, Listen, Learn, and Remember, reinforcing the industry’s commitment to safety.
While safety is a year-round priority, this month offers a special opportunity to spotlight the industry’s commitment to protecting families and communities. Through educational materials like digital icons, infographics, and videos, IDA has encouraged companies to position themselves as safety leaders.
Together, we can make garage door safety second nature.
- LOOK at the garage door, springs, cables and rollers for wear and tear
- LISTEN for grinding or scraping sounds
- LEARN
–Keep the garage door opener and remote out of reach of children
–Keep fingers and hands away from door sections and moving doors
–Keep garage doors closed and remote controls out of sight to deter theft - REMEMBER if you find any concerns regarding your door system, contact a trained garage door professional
