Spring wind that bends a door inward, a cold snap that breaks a spring, a door that won't close as it gets dark: those are the calls that jump the line here. Tell us which one you have. We secure the door first, then repair it, and the estimate is free.
Tell us what the door is doing. Free estimate, written down, before the first tool comes out.
The spring winds here can push a closed garage door in at the middle, especially a wide, single-layer door running on worn rollers. A door that's been bowed in may still look shut, but its rollers can be half out of the tracks and its sections creased. Running the opener on it drags the tracks out of line and can drop the door out of them altogether. Shop, storage and ranch building doors have their own page: commercial garage door repair.
If the door bowed during a windstorm, leave it closed and don't press the button. It gets braced and the rollers set back, the creased sections are checked, and you hear whether the door can be straightened or a section needs replacing.
Winter doesn't linger here, but when a cold snap does come through, the springs that the summer heat wore down give out overnight. The opener groans, the door lifts an inch, and the car is stuck behind it. Unplug the opener so it doesn't strip its own gear, and call; stuck cars get the first slot of the morning.
A door that won't close at night is the other urgent one. Lock the inside door to the house, put anything you'd rather not leave on view out of sight, and call. An open garage is dealt with that same evening.
Order of work, whatever the hour.
Nearly every emergency here ends on the first trip, because springs, cables, rollers, hinges, safety eyes and opener boards for the common brands are carried on the truck. A creased section or an unusual door size can mean ordering, and in that case the door isn't left open while the part is on its way.
It's closed and locked, or set so it can be opened safely by hand, and you're given the date before the technician goes.
When a shop or storage building can't be shut, it's treated like a house that can't be locked and goes to the top of the list, sectional or rolling steel door alike. The building gets closed up first and the repair planned after. Commercial operators, photo eyes and safety edges are part of the work.
On the bigger lots, RV and equipment doors are covered the same way, including the heavier springs and cables they use.
Keep children and pets out of the garage, and stay out from under a door that's partly open. If the door won't close and a car can be parked across the opening, that keeps the garage from standing wide open until the technician arrives.
Make a note of what you heard or saw: a bang, a grinding noise, a door that jumped or leaned. It tells the technician where to look first, and it shortens the visit.
Belmont, Sunset Park, Bessemer, Mesa Junction, the Northside and El Camino, and out to Pueblo West, Avondale, Boone, Colorado City and Rye.
Tell us the address; the window you're given is one we plan to keep.
Eyes on the door before any diagnosis. Nothing is guessed over the phone.
A bowed door is braced, not forced. Forcing bends the tracks.
Springs and cables in pairs. A lone new part pulls the door crooked.
Closed up before we leave. Even if a part is on order.
Keep it shut and leave the opener off. We brace it, set the rollers back into the tracks, and check each creased section before it runs.
Pull the opener's plug and call us. Stuck cars are the first stop in the morning, and the springs for most doors travel with us.
Lock the inside door, put valuables out of sight, and call. An open garage is handled the same evening.
Yes, rolling and sectional doors at businesses and on larger properties, including their operators.
Just which calls go first. The estimate is still written, and the door still gets every check.
Yes. Taller doors with heavier springs and cables are regular work, and parts for the common sizes come with us.
If it won't close but nothing overhead has broken, a car parked across the opening and the inside door locked will hold for the night. If a spring or cable has failed, call; that one shouldn't wait.
It's free whenever you call, and written before work starts.
