As a trusted garage door company, we understand that property owners have many questions about garage door systems and processes. Browse our FAQs to learn more about garage door installation, repair services, and more!
- What types of doors does your garage door company install?- Our garage door company provides comprehensive garage door installation services for both residential and commercial properties. For residential clients, we offer wood, steel, raised-panel, and carriage house doors. Commercial garage door installation includes farm doors, industrial doors, overhead doors, and specialty options with accessories such as dock seals, dock bumpers, and commercial door openers. 
- How do I know if I need garage door repair or a complete replacement?- Common signs that indicate the need for garage door repair include broken or bent torsion springs, damaged cables, worn rollers, or misaligned tracks. If your garage door operates slowly, makes excessive noise, or fails to open and close properly, professional garage door repair may resolve these issues. However, if your door is significantly aged, has extensive damage, or lacks energy efficiency, garage door installation of a new system may be more cost-effective than ongoing repairs. 
- What garage door repair services do you provide?- Routine garage door maintenance is key to ensuring safe and efficient operation. If you're experiencing issues with torsion springs, cables, rollers, or tracks, reach out to us. We'll diagnose potential problems and perform the necessary garage door repairs to prevent further damage and avoid costly fixes down the line. 
- Can you service both residential and commercial garage door systems?- Absolutely. Our garage door company has extensive experience providing garage door installation and repair for both residential and commercial properties. We understand that commercial properties often require specialized overhead doors, industrial-grade components, and enhanced security features, while residential clients prioritize aesthetics, energy efficiency, and quiet operation. 
- How long does a typical garage door installation take to complete?- The timeframe for garage door installation depends on several factors, including the type of door, the complexity of the installation, and any necessary preparation work. Most residential garage door installation projects are completed within a single day, while commercial installations may require additional time due to larger doors and specialized components. 
- What should I do if my garage door stops working suddenly?- If your garage door stops functioning, first check that the power source is connected and that no objects are blocking the door's path. Avoid attempting to force the door open or closed, as this can cause additional damage requiring more extensive garage door repair. Instead, contact our garage door company immediately for professional diagnosis and repair services. Our team can quickly identify the problem and provide appropriate solutions to restore safe operation.
