Repair and Preventive Maintenance Services
When you think about the number of times a door goes up and down in a week and then multiply that over the course of a year or decade, it’s easy to understand why a garage door might need occasional attention from a professional.
Glass can break, creating a security concern. Springs, which are under constant pressure, wear out. Cables break or suffer severe wear and tear. Replacing failed or faulty springs or cables requires intricate work by knowledgeable technicians to prevent your door from being a safety hazard. Repairs like these are when our talented team near Long Island can help.
In addition to repairing commercial, residential and industrial garage doors, we also fix and replace garage door openers. Call us when you need preventive maintenance or service — you don’t want to get stuck outside when everything you need is behind your door!
