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 lift cable has slipped off the drum or a roller bearing has seized and popped out. Operating the door in this state can completely drop the heavy panels.
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 Oakland and the cities around it.
The ceiling above your door decides which track we can hang.
Look up before you look at the door. Standard-lift track wants clear headroom above the opening for the torsion tube and shaft, plus room for the radius curve that turns the door onto its horizontal run. Where the ceiling sits lower than that, or something is framed across it, the job becomes low-headroom hardware instead — doubled horizontal track, the top roller carried on its own fixture, sometimes the spring moved back onto a rear-mounted shaft, which then wants clear depth behind the opening. That is a measurement rather than a guess, and here it comes up constantly: the census median build year is 1953, 77.9% of homes predate 1980, and 68,909 of 187,847 units were finished in 1939 or earlier. On a bay framed that long ago there is no reading the clearance off a build year, so we measure overhead before ordering any hardware.
