How long does a typical garage door installation take?

A standard residential garage door installation typically takes 4-6 hours from start to finish. This includes removal of the old door (if applicable), installation of the new door and hardware, opener installation or reconnection, and thorough testing of all safety features. More complex installations, such as custom doors or those requiring structural modifications, may take longer. We always provide a time estimate during your consultation so you can plan accordingly.

What should I do if my garage door won't open?

If your garage door won't open, first check the obvious issues: ensure the opener is plugged in, check if the remote batteries need replacing, and verify the wall switch works. Look for any obstructions in the door's path and check if the safety sensors are aligned (they should have solid lights). If none of these solve the problem, the issue could be broken springs, a damaged cable, or opener malfunction. For safety reasons, we recommend calling a professional rather than attempting to fix spring or cable issues yourself.

How often should I have my garage door serviced?

We recommend professional garage door maintenance at least once a year, ideally before extreme weather seasons. Regular maintenance includes lubricating moving parts, checking spring tension, inspecting cables and hardware, testing safety features, and adjusting the door balance. Homeowners should also perform monthly visual inspections and listen for unusual noises. Regular maintenance can extend your door's lifespan by years and help prevent costly emergency repairs.

Are your technicians licensed and insured?
