We repair most common garage door issues residential customers face. Broken garage door spring? Door won't open correctly? Need to replace your opener? Let's get it done.
We make the process simple with up-front, flat rate "out-the-door" pricing, online booking, and a 1 year warranty on all work.
*After-hours emergency garage door repair service may be available. Call or text us.
Your door won't open because the heart of the lifting system is broken. We will replace the broken spring with a high quality one that's made in the USA. If you have two springs, standard procedure is to replace both so they are on equal life cycles. Typically, a single-car door needs one spring, and two-car doors need two. If your double door currently has only one spring, you can decide whether to leave it as one or upgrade to two. Two springs provide a longer life cycle and some additional safety from the door's full weight should one spring break while closing.
Flat-Rate, Out-the-Door Price (Includes Springs(s), Parts, Labor, Sales Tax):
One-Spring System: $245
Two-Spring System: $295
If a lift cable comes off the spool or snapped, there's nothing lifting one side of the door. You may notice your door opens only slightly, is crooked, or won't open at all. We'll rebalance the door, can replace broken or worn cables, and carry additional parts that may be needed in that assembly (cable drums, for example). All you have to do is book the appointment, and let us worry about everything else.
Flat-Rate, Out-the-Door Price (Covers Parts, Labor, Sales Tax): $175
Garage openers typically last a decade or longer, but they occasionally fail and need to be replaced. We can replace the automatic opening system with one of our favorite units OR you can provide the unit you want to use. We don't repair existing units, but we're happy to replace them.
Our LiftMaster openers are built better, last longer, and include a solid, one-piece rail. The operators found at the hardware stores include rails with separate sections. This leads to noise and joints that can fail.
Flat-Rate, Out-the-Door Price (Covers Parts, Install/Labor, Sales Tax):
Pro-X Supplied LiftMaster System w/Solid Rail: $595*
Customer Supplied Unit (Labor Only): $295
*Price covers one of the three most common LiftMaster units we sell (81550, 81650, 81600). We also offer model 81602 which has an integrated battery-backup for $50 more. If you require a less common, higher end unit, we will provide an updated, up-front cost. All of our units come with MyQ Smart Technology built in, and always include a wall button, remote, no-interference LED bulb, and safety sensors. Once you book this service, we'll reach out to confirm which LiftMaster model you'd like.
We handle typical problems such as your door won't open, won't close, won't close flush, etc. Contact us via phone, text, or email and describe your issue. We can likely evaluate which service is needed and schedule it if you'd like.

This warranty is simply for your peace of mind that the job was done correctly.
Yes. In a two-spring system, it's important that both springs are on the same exact life cycle. If one spring has broken, it's likely the other spring is nearing the end of it's life cycle as well. Leaving this worn-down spring can lead to early failure of the door and excess wear on the new spring. Replacing both springs is a standard safety practice in this industry. Select "Broken Spring - 2 Spring System" when booking online.
Your two-car garage door is very heavy. It's twice as heavy as your single car door. Two springs on a large door provides added safety. If you only have one spring, and that spring breaks, 100% of the garage door's weight will come crashing down. When two are present, the second spring continues to absorb weight even when it's partner spring is broken. It'll decrease the door's crashing weight by half. If a child or pet were walking underneath the door when it came down, that second spring may be the key to preventing a catastrophe. For safety, no one should ever be walking under a door that's actively opening or closing, though.
Aside from this, a two-spring system can typically deliver a much longer life cycle as well.
Please make sure there is space to work in front of and on either side of the garage door from the inside. If there is no access to these areas, we cannot complete the work. Pull your vehicles out of the garage (unless they're trapped inside due to the door not opening).
Unfortunately, no. We currently only offer repair services.
No, we don't provide this service.
We almost never see extension springs anymore, so we only work on standard torsion springs. Extension springs are springs that you can see on the sides of the ceiling tracks which hold your garage door when open. The operate differently than standard torsion springs (visible on a bar that's mounted on the wall above your closed garage door). We only work on torsion spring doors.
We work on the overwhelming majority of residential garage doors. This includes single and double car doors which are 7-8ft tall (7ft most common). We don't work on RV doors, shop doors, warehouse doors, or other less common or unique doors in residential settings.
We don't work on Torquemaster springs. You will know you have this if your door is made by Wayne Dalton, and you don't physically see the torsion springs mounted onto your garage shaft that's positioned above the door (from inside).
When booking online or by phone, we rely on customer-supplied information to deliver a price. We never raise prices or try to sell you upgrades on top of the quoted service. The prices you see here are the exact prices you'll pay.
If upon inspection, the service you've selected would not remedy the problem you have, we will explain this thoroughly and give you the option to proceed or not.
For example, if you schedule a broken spring repair, but it turns out the automatic opener was broken (not the springs), the repair service will need to be changed and the price will increase. We can help identify the problem via phone if you're not sure. SImply call or text us.
We only replace current systems where wiring, ceiling brackets, and wall bracket are already present.
While it's farily uncommon, some heavy residential garage doors will have as many as four springs. Our listed prices include one or two springs only, so please call or text us if you have more. We will provide a custom quote.
The most common problem we encounter is for a broken garage door spring. The springs are under a lot of daily stress, and they will eventually fail. We replace these broken garage door springs with brand new, American made ones. Another common issue has to do with the lift cable and drum assembly. The drum is the wheel which the lift cables are wound onto and turn to lift or lower the door. These cables, also under a tremendous amount of stress, can break, detach from the garage door, or unwind from the drum. This renders the lift system inoperable. We can replace or repair these cables, drums, lower bracket, or whatever the issue is. Finally, we see many issues with the automatic garage door openers themselves. Assuming there are no other issues with the lift system, the automatic opener may fail from simple wear and tear. We replace these broken units with a brand new system.

Your garage door's travel limits are pivotal to its smooth and efficient operation. These limits dictate the extent to which the door opens and closes, playing a crucial role in ensuring safety, security, and longevity. Join us in exploring the significance of garage door travel limits and how to adjust them for optimal performance in your Oklahoma City and Edmond homes.
Adjusting Garage Door Travel Limits:
Locate the Limit Adjustments:
Familiarize yourself with your garage door opener's manual to identify the location of the limit adjustment screws or keypad arrow usually found on the opener's housing.
Identify Up and Down Limits:
The adjustments are typically labeled "up" and "down." The up limit controls the extent of the door's opening, while the down limit governs its closing range.
Set the Limits:
Following the instructions found in your manual, adjust the up limit. Raise it until it is even with the garage door header. If left too low, a vehicle may colide with it. If it's too high, it puts strain on the lift system. For the down limit, make sure the door makes strong contact with the ground. You should not see daylight coming in underneath the door. Repeat these adjustments incrementally, testing the door's movement each time.
Safety Reversal Test:
Following the travel limit adjustments, conduct a safety reversal test by placing an object in the door's path during closing. The door should automatically reverse upon contact. If not, reevaluate and readjust the limits accordingly.
Properly set garage door travel limits are paramount for safety, security, and the prolonged functionality of your garage door system. Regularly check and adjust these limits to ensure your garage door operates seamlessly. If uncertainties arise or difficulties persist, consider seeking the expertise of a professional garage door repair service in Oklahoma City or Edmond. A well-maintained garage door not only enhances your home's curb appeal but also contributes to the overall safety and security of your property.

In Oklahoma City's diverse weather conditions or Edmond's seasonal changes, these factors can be exacerbated.

Check for any loose nuts, bolts, or screws and tighten them using a wrench. Vibrations from regular use can cause the hardware to become loose, contributing to the noise.
Lubricate Moving Parts:
Oklahoma City's hot summers and Edmond's fluctuating temperatures can affect the lubrication of garage door components. Regularly lubricate moving parts such as rollers, hinges, and springs with a silicone-based lubricant to reduce friction and noise. Do not use grease.
Inspect and Replace Worn Rollers:
Worn-out rollers can create a significant racket. Examine the rollers for signs of wear and replace them if needed. Consider upgrading to nylon rollers for quieter operation.
Professional Assistance in Oklahoma City and Edmond:
If the DIY fixes don't silence your garage door, it's time to call in the experts. Professional garage door technicians in Oklahoma City and Edmond can provide comprehensive inspections and targeted solutions. They'll assess the condition of your garage door components, identify any issues, and recommend appropriate repairs or replacements.
Don't let a noisy garage door disrupt the tranquility of your home in Oklahoma City or Edmond.

As the chill of winter approaches, it's essential to ensure that your garage door is ready to face the challenges posed by colder temperatures and inclement weather. Taking proactive measures can not only extend the life of your garage door but also contribute to a warmer and more energy-efficient home. In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to prepare your garage door for the winter season.
1. Inspect and Lubricate Moving Parts:
Begin by inspecting all moving parts, including hinges, rollers, and springs.
Apply a high-quality garage door lubricant to ensure smooth operation in cold weather. Do not use grease.
2. Check and Seal Gaps:
Inspect the edges of your garage door for any gaps that might allow drafts.
Seal gaps with weatherstripping to prevent cold air and moisture from entering.
3. Examine and Clean the Tracks:
Check the tracks for debris or obstructions that could impede the door's movement.
Clean the tracks thoroughly and ensure they are aligned for proper function.
4. Test the Garage Door Balance:
A balanced door operates more efficiently and puts less strain on the opener.
Test the balance by disconnecting the opener and manually lifting the door halfway.
5. Inspect and Replace Weather Seals:
Check the condition of the bottom weather seal and replace it if worn or damaged.
Ensure a tight seal to prevent snow, rain, and cold air from entering the garage.
6. Protecting Against Ice Buildup:
Avoid using salt near the weatherstripping, as it can damage the garage door and its components.
7. Adjust Garage Door Opener Settings:
Cold weather can affect the performance of garage door openers.
Adjust the opener's force and sensitivity settings according to the manufacturer's instructions.
8. Consider Insulating Your Garage Door:
If your garage door is not already insulated, consider adding insulation panels.
Insulated doors help regulate temperature and reduce energy costs during the winter.
9. Secure Emergency Release Cord:
Ensure the emergency release cord is in good condition and operates smoothly.
Familiarize yourself with its function in case you need to manually open the door.
10. Schedule Professional Maintenance:
Consider scheduling a professional garage door maintenance service before winter arrives.
Professionals can identify potential issues and perform adjustments to optimize performance.
By following these steps to prepare your garage door for winter, you can ensure reliable operation, improve energy efficiency, and enhance the overall comfort of your home. Taking the time to address these aspects now will pay off in the long run, keeping your garage and home well-protected throughout the colder months. Stay warm and worry-free with a winter-ready garage door!

When it comes to garage doors, achieving the ideal balance is more than just a matter of convenience; it's a fundamental aspect of safety and functionality. To test this, disengage your automatic opener so that the door can be raised and lowered manually. A perfectly balanced garage door should stay in position halfway up, remain securely open without any unexpected falls, and close effortlessly without requiring excessive force. Let's delve into why this equilibrium is crucial and how you can ensure your garage door achieves it.
Staying Put at the Midway Point
A well-balanced garage door should effortlessly hold its position when opened halfway. When the door remains steady at the midway point, it illustrates that your counter-balance system is in equilibrium. If your springs aren't producing enough upward force, the door will likely descend down. If they're producing too much force, the door will tend to continue opening higher.
Securely Open
If the door held in place at the midway point, there's no chance it will fall from the raised position. However, it is essential to test the upward force here and confirm that the door will stay in place. If it tries to open beyond the garage frame, it may be producing too much opening pressure.
Closing Effortlessly: A Gentle Descent
Closing your garage door shouldn't feel like a battle of strength. A balanced garage door should glide down smoothly without requiring a ton of force. Excessive resistance during the closing process not only indicates a potential balance issue but also puts strain on various components, potentially leading to premature wear and tear. While your garage door operator aids in lifting the door, if it has to struggle against the springs during lowering, it can cause equal damage.
Tips for Achieving and Maintaining Balance:
Spring Tension Adjustment: The garage door springs play a pivotal role in achieving balance. We can help ensure the correct tension for your specific door.
Regular Lubrication: Keep all moving parts, including hinges and rollers, well-lubricated. This minimizes friction, allowing for smoother operation.
Visual Checks: Regularly visually inspect the door for signs of wear, misalignment, or damage. Addressing issues promptly can prevent them from evolving into more significant problems.

If there's one constant in the world, it's that moving parts break. Garage door springs are no exception. While torsion springs are made of high-strength steel, the constant stress of winding and unwinding leads to eventual failure. American-made springs have an industry standard life of at least 10,000 cycles. A cycle is comprised of one open and one close. To put this into perspective, two cycles per day would mean the spring would last 14 years. Most families use the garage door more than this, so the actual duration will likely be shorter.
There are some tips to extend the lifespan of your springs. The best thing you can do is keep them lubricated with garage-specific lubricant. This cuts down on the friction and heat produced, thereby helping the springs last longer. You can also avoid unnecessarily opening your door. For example, take that trash bag out of the front door as opposed ot the garage door.
If you find that your springs are breaking in a relatively short time, you may require high cycle springs. These are rated to last longer, sometimes 20,000-50,000 cycles.
September 22nd, 2023
Your garage door rollers, or wheels, could be responsible for most of the noise you hear when it's in operation. One idea most people get is to apply some grease to the rollers in order to quiet them down. Yes, this works...at first. The problem with grease is that it attracts surrounding dirt and grime. When you use grease on the garage rollers, it will eventually start penetrating into the ball bearings inside of the wheels themselves. This grease and dirt mixture will begin to cause more problems that it solves. In addition to this, the now-dirty grease will expand into the door tracks and create an even bigger mess.
Using a liquid lubricant is significantly better in the long run. Most hardware stores sell lubricant made specifically for garage door parts, but most lubricating sprays will do the trick. You can spray the wheels themselves and the stem of the wheels inside of the door hinges and brackets.
September 10th, 2023
If you have ever looked into garage door springs, you'll notice there are a million different variations. The first reaction to this is to wonder why sizing can't be simplified and standardized. The problem has to do with the varying weights of garage doors and the path in which they open. The garage springs have to do two things. They have to absorb the weight of the door to make opening possible, but they also have to keep the door heavy enough that it closes just as easily. Much like most things in life, it's a balancing act.
If there was a standard spring size, but non-standard garage door weights, you could never achieve the balance needed to both easily open the door AND keep it closed when it needs to be. The springs have to be wound a specific number of times because they have to turn the cable drums a specific number of times to lift the door a specific amount of feet. Because the lift distance is fairly standardized, and therefore the drum spins are standardized, and therefore the spring spins are standardized, the only thing that can vary to accomodate the different weights of garage doors is the size and length of the springs.
August 29th, 2023
Garage door springs supply the upward force needed to allow your opener to lift your garage door. Even a standard two car door could weigh nearly 200lbs. Without a system to counterbalance this weight, your automatic opener would need to be the size of, basically, a jet engine! The spring system delivers torque by way of tension. When the garage door is closed, the springs are wound to maximum tension. As your garage door rises, the springs naturally want to unwind. This unwinding pressure turns a tube that is attached by wires to your garage door. This torque turns the tube and helps lift the garage door.
