What affects the price

When you are looking at garage door costs, keep in mind that the final bill depends on a few moving parts. The material you choose—like steel, wood, or aluminum—plays a big role, as does the level of insulation required for your home. You also have to factor in the size of the door, the complexity of the hardware, and whether you are replacing the tracks and springs at the same time. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Safety sensors are the small electronic eyes located near the floor on both sides of your garage door. They stop the door from closing if an object or person breaks the beam. If your door refuses to close and the lights on the opener are flashing, the sensors are likely misaligned or blocked. Cleaning the lenses or adjusting their position often solves the problem. If they still won't work, we can troubleshoot the wiring or replace the units to keep your home safe.
