WHAT CAN WE FIX?

We offer a wide variety of repair services and solutions to keep your garage door in pristine condition. These are three of our most common complications, but no problem is too big or too small.

Spring Replacement

Garage door springs over time can wear out or break due to frequent use and the stress of handling the door's weight. Broken springs are a common issue that requires immediate repair, as they can make the door difficult or unsafe to operate.

Cable Repairs

The cables in a garage door system help control the door's movement and provide additional support to the springs. Cables can fray, snap, or get tangled, leading to uneven or stuck doors. Cable repairs or replacements are often necessary to ensure safe and smooth operation.

Roller Replacement

If the tracks become misaligned or the rollers wear out, the door may stick, make noise, or become difficult to open. Aligning the tracks or replacing worn-out rollers can resolve these issues, making the door function more smoothly and quietly.

GARAGE DOOR SERVICE AND REPAIR FAQs

HOW DO I KNOW IF MY DOOR IS PROPERLY BALANCED?

There are several tests you can perform to tell if your door is balanced. Before testing your door, disengage you electronic opener.
1) Raise your door in 1′ increments, and the door should stay in place.
2) When you lower the door, the door lowers in a controlled manner and doesn’t slam down.
3) When you raise the door, the door rises at a controlled pace.
4) When the door is fully-raised in the open position, the bottom of the door should be aligned with the bottom of the header of the door opening.

HOW DO I KNOW IF MY GARAGE DOOR CAN BE REPAIRED WITH A SERVICE CALL OR IF I JUST NEED TO REPLACE THE GARAGE DOOR?

The best way to determine if a garage door can be repaired through service or needs replacement is to call a professionally trained garage door dealer near you. Depending on the issues, a door may just need servicing (like a 3,000 mile car oil service), a few new parts, a new section or a door replacement. Many times, the issue is not the garage door, but the garage door opener needs replacement or servicing.

CAN I REPLACE JUST ONE SECTION RATHER THAN REPLACING MY ENTIRE DOOR?

Yes you can as long as you meet the following items: The door is still in production You can find the exact brand and model The rest of the door and hardware are in good shape

WHY WOULD MY GARAGE DOOR NEED SERVICE?

A garage door raises and lowers with the assistance of springs. Broken and or worn springs will cause the door to be heavy and thus cause an extra load on the garage door opener. The extra load can be dangerous for reversing mechanisms and cause premature failure of the garage door opener. Having a technician check the garage door springs, rollers and garage door opener is good preventative maintenance for your garage door.

HOW DO I CLAIM A WARRANTY?

MAINTENANCE INFO- DOORS & MOTORS

AMARR STEEL DOOR AND HARDWARE

We recommend that you wash your steel door a minimum of one (1) time per year with: (a) One cup of Tide® (or other common detergents which contain less than 0.5% phosphate), dissolved into five gallons of warm water. NEVER BLEND CLEANSERS OR DETERGENTS WITH BLEACH. The use of a well-soaked cloth, sponge, brush (with very soft bristles) or low pressure spray washer is recommended. Once the door is washed, thoroughly rinse with clean water to eliminate the possibility of residue. In addition, lubrication of springs, rollers and hinges is recommended on a yearly basis with Amarr Super Lube or similar non-silicone based lubricant (e.g. 10W-30 motor oil). Visually inspect springs and cable for wear and binding once each year and contact a professional garage door dealer/installer if damage is suspected. Do not attempt to remove, repair or adjust springs. Do not attempt to remove or loosen any red fasteners found in high torsion areas, such as bottom brackets or spring plates. HIGH SPRING TENSION CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

AMARR WOOD CARRIAGE HOUSE DOOR

We recommend that a composite wood door is re-painted or stained every two years, depending on the location of the door. Some doors that have excessive sun exposure may need to be finished one time per year.
