Atwater's 1950s are 1,595 homes still standing, more than the 1960s added. There are much newer ones here too, and old or new, yours gets the same attention — springs and cables, rollers and track, hinges, the opener overhead. Whichever sort of garage you are standing in, a door you can go back to not noticing is what we are after.

Identify what your door is doing before you call. If it is one of these, do not keep operating it.
Your torsion spring has snapped under intense torsional load. Forcing the opener to lift the door without spring assistance will burn out the motor or snap the drive belt.
A stripped internal nylon drive gear or a blown starting capacitor. We carry complete carriage gear rebuild kits in our trucks to repair your system immediately.
Don't let a snapped spring, snapped cable, ripped weather seal, or a defective remote keep you locked inside. Our expert teams carry fully stocked dispatch trucks. We regularly perform comprehensive garage door maintenance (inspection, lubrication, adjustment, and component testing) to keep your system safe. We serve Atwater and the cities around it.
The 1970s account for 2,170 of Atwater's 10,525 housing units and the 1980s for 1,971 — 199 apart, which is comfortably inside the margin the census publishes on either count, so the record names a decade and then cannot hold it there. It is also the decade DASMA's history of the industry has the least to say about. That history dates the residential material either side of it: wood through the 1940s and 50s, then steel beginning to revolutionize the residential market in 1980, with nearly every manufacturer building the steel raised-panel door by 1985. Between those two dates it names no material at all — and it is a record of what the factories were shipping in any case, not of what survived on a given house. A home standing at the 1979 median has had forty-seven years in which to be re-doored, and one-piece and sectional doors were being built alongside each other through all of it, so the year on the building will not even say which way the thing in the opening lifts. Nobody sets off from the shop with a door already in mind here. What is up there is established at the opening, along with the weight the counterbalance is really holding.
A separate question, and one worth settling before a repair gets booked: water on a glazed section. Moisture sealed between the panes is DASMA's flag for a possible failed seal in the glazing unit itself, and that is a technician's call rather than anything a cloth fixes. Water on the face of the glass is a different answer entirely — DASMA calls garage door condensation not normally a product defect but characteristic of a warm, humid garage against a door surface the colder outside has chilled, and is explicit that even double- or triple-pane glazing units may show it in a humid garage. The sheet is written around a garage that is heated and conditioned, which means the thing it actually turns on is the air in that one room — how humid it is, and how far it sits from the air on the other side of the door. No weather record carries either figure, so that part gets asked about rather than assumed.
