How quickly can you respond to a garage door emergency?

We offer 24/7 emergency service and typically respond within 60-90 minutes for urgent situations. Our service vehicles are fully stocked with the most common parts, so we can often complete repairs in a single visit. For non-emergency repairs, we usually offer same-day or next-day appointments depending on availability.

What brands of garage doors and openers do you service?

We service all major brands of garage doors and openers including LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman, Wayne Dalton, Clopay, Amarr, and many more. Our technicians are factory-trained and certified to work on virtually any make or model. Whether you have a traditional chain-drive opener or a smart Wi-Fi enabled system, we have the expertise to service it.

Do you offer warranties on your repairs and installations?

Yes, we stand behind our work with comprehensive warranties. All repairs come with a 1-year warranty on parts and labor. New garage door installations include manufacturer warranties that typically range from 3-10 years on the door itself, plus our own 2-year labor warranty. We also offer extended warranty options for additional peace of mind.

How much does garage door repair cost?

Repair costs vary depending on the issue. Simple repairs like sensor realignment or lubrication may cost $75-150. Spring replacement typically ranges from $150-350 depending on the spring type. We provide free estimates and upfront pricing before any work begins, so you'll never be surprised by hidden fees.

How long does a garage door installation take?

A standard garage door installation typically takes 3-5 hours for a single door or 5-8 hours for a double door. This includes removing the old door, installing the new one, and setting up the opener. Complex installations with custom doors or additional features may take longer.

What are signs that my garage door springs need replacement?

Common signs include: the door feels unusually heavy when lifting manually, the door doesn't stay open or closes too quickly, you hear loud squeaking or grinding noises, visible gaps in the spring coils, or the door appears crooked when opening. If you notice any of these signs, call us immediately—broken springs can be dangerous.

Do you service areas outside of Palo Alto?

Yes! While we're based in Palo Alto, we serve the entire Bay Area including Los Altos, Mountain View, Menlo Park, Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Redwood City, San Carlos, and surrounding communities. Contact us to confirm service availability in your area.

Can I get a same-day appointment?

Yes, we offer same-day service for most repairs. For emergencies like a door that won't close or a security concern, we prioritize rapid response. Call us in the morning for the best chance of same-day availability, though we'll always do our best to accommodate your schedule.
