Gorman sits in hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year. That is hard on a door — damp garages that pit galvanized parts over time, salt-tinged coastal air that accelerates rust near the shore, and summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity, and mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors. We size springs and seals for North Carolina's humid subtropical region conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.

Census data puts 73% of Gorman homes at pre-1980 construction (median build year 1965) — old enough that many garages still run their original springs, opener, and seals, all long past rated life.
