What is the lifespan of a garage door vibration isolator kit?

Will the garage door silencer quiet squeaky door hinges and rollers?

Silicone spray lubricants, lithium grease, white grease, motor oil, and cooking oil can also be used to lubricate door hinges. Some people even dip the hinge pins in melted paraffin wax to stop the squeaking.
Garage Door Quiet Kit Testimonials
Compare The Difference
I just bought and installed two of your garage door vibration isolation kits and am very pleased with the results. They were easy to install, and provided great results. After installing the first two, I took a few minutes to record the difference between the two openers. The first is the sound without, and the second is with the kit. Both are recorded from the same location in our bedroom above the garage.

Thanks For The Silence
We just moved into our new house and everything was great, but every time I left for work the noise and vibrations from our garage door opener would wake up our newborn. My wife was making me park my car outside because she didn’t want him disturbed. A friend of mine recommended that I buy the Garage Door Silencer kit to reduce the noise. After I installed them, which was much easier than I thought it would be, we were amazed by how much they reduced the noise. It’s hard to believe that those two small clips absorb so much noise. My wife is much happier now that our baby isn’t disturbed by the garage door opener and I can now park in the garage again.
Thanks for the silence. – Dr. Rich C. (Tualatin, OR)
