Frequently Asked Garage Door Questions
Honest answers to the most common questions we hear from homeowners in Phoenix and across the Valley.
If your garage door suddenly won’t open or slams shut, it’s likely a broken spring. You may hear a loud bang when it fails, and you’ll often see a gap in the coil. Do not try to lift or repair it yourself — broken springs are under extreme tension and require professional tools and experience to fix safely.
In many cases, we can replace a single damaged panel instead of the whole door. However, if the door is older, has structural issues, or the replacement won’t match the rest of the door, we may recommend a full replacement. We’ll walk you through the pros and cons either way.
Chain drives are durable and affordable, but they’re louder and better suited for detached garages. Belt drives are quieter and ideal for homes with living space near the garage. We also install smart openers that let you control your garage from your phone — no matter where you are.
Yes. Regular maintenance helps prevent sudden breakdowns, keeps your door running quietly, and extends the life of your springs, rollers, and opener.
