Services

What we fix on South Florida garage doors

See all services

Broken Spring Replacement

Torsion and extension springs snap after roughly 10,000 cycles. We replace them in matched pairs with correctly rated, cycle-tested springs.

  • Torsion & extension springs
  • Matched-pair replacement
  • Balance & travel re-set

Cable Repair & Off-Track Doors

Frayed, slipped, or snapped lift cables leave a door crooked and unsafe. We re-seat the door, replace cables, and re-tension both drums.

  • Snapped or frayed cables
  • Door back on track
  • Drum re-tensioning

Roller & Hinge Service

Grinding, jerky travel usually means worn steel rollers or cracked hinges. Quiet nylon rollers make a dramatic difference in daily noise.

  • Nylon roller upgrades
  • Hinge & bracket replacement
  • Full lubrication service

Opener Repair & Installation

From dead capacitors to stripped gears, we repair most openers same visit — or install a quiet belt-drive unit with Wi-Fi control.

  • Chain, belt & jackshaft
  • Wi-Fi / smartphone control
  • Force & limit calibration

Track Alignment & Replacement

A bent or bowed track binds the door and burns out the opener. We straighten, re-shim, or replace track sections to factory spec.

  • Bent track repair
  • Vertical & horizontal sections
  • Plumb & level alignment

Safety Sensor Repair

A door that reverses right before closing is almost always a sensor issue. We realign, rewire, or replace photo-eyes and test the auto-reverse.

  • Photo-eye realignment
  • Wiring repair
  • Auto-reverse safety testing

Remote Controls & Keypads

Lost a remote? We program new remotes, wall consoles, and exterior keypads, and clear old codes so nobody else has access.

  • Remote programming
  • Exterior keypads
  • Rolling-code security reset

Weather Seals & Bottom Gaskets

South Florida rain finds every gap. New bottom gaskets and perimeter stop seals keep water, heat, and pests out of the garage.

  • Bottom gasket replacement
  • Perimeter stop seal
  • Threshold sealing

New Garage Door Installation

Insulated steel, wood-look, and impact-rated doors sized and installed for coastal conditions, with full hardware and opener setup.

  • Impact-rated coastal doors
  • Insulated steel & wood-look
  • Haul-away of the old door

Common questions

Quick answers before you call

How fast can you get to my garage door?

We serve Miami-Dade and Broward daily and usually reach most neighborhoods the same day for stuck or broken doors. Call 305-360-0342 and we will give you a realistic arrival window before we head out.

My spring snapped — can I still use the door?

No. With a broken spring the door weighs its full 150–350 lbs and the opener is not built to lift it. Leave the door down, do not pull the emergency release under load, and call 305-360-0342.

Do you replace one spring or both?

Both. Springs age together, so replacing only the broken one leaves you with a mismatched system that fails again quickly and puts uneven load on the shaft.

Why does my door reverse right before it closes?

Almost always the photo-eye safety sensors: knocked out of alignment, dirty, or with a damaged wire. It can also be an over-tight close-force setting. Both are quick diagnostics for us.
