In a recent interview with Milwaukee’s CBS 58, Travis Nicolette, a franchise owner with ProLift Garage Doors, discussed how important garage safety is and shared helpful tips on how to avoid accidents involving garage doors. June was recently named National Garage Door Safety Month, and each year, more than 30,000 people are hurt in a garage door accident, according to CBS 58. ProLift recommends that people get their garage doors checked yearly. This way, experts can examine the mechanical details of the door and catch potential issues before it is too late. Nicolette discusses how people often think they don’t need expert advice and can simply look up a YouTube video on how to fix specific issues. However, Nicolette says this could result in injuries or further damaging the garage door.

ProLift Garage Doors has more than 20 units currently open, and the brand has expanded across multiple states, including South Carolina, Tennessee and Arizona. The brand offers many different types of repairs, and each technician undergoes rigorous training.
