Garage door questions, answered.

Monday through Sunday, 6:00 AM to 11:30 PM. Same hours every day, weekends included.

Yes. Same-day appointments are often available across our service area, especially for broken springs, cables and doors stuck open.

Nashville and 31 surrounding cities and neighborhoods, including Donelson, Antioch, Hermitage, Mount Juliet, Hendersonville, Brentwood, Franklin, Murfreesboro and Smyrna. See our service areas page.

Yes. When you call, we'll give you a realistic arrival window and call ahead when your technician is on the way.

For most repairs, yes — or have someone over 18 there — so we can review the quote with you before starting.

Every door and problem is different, so we don't guess over the phone. We inspect the door, explain what's wrong, and give you a written quote before any work begins.

Estimates for new doors and openers are free. For repairs, we'll explain any service-call details on the phone before we come out, so there are no surprises.

No. The written quote you approve is what you pay. If we find something else, we'll show you and ask before doing any extra work.

Ask when you call — we'll confirm the payment options available for your job.

Common signs: a loud bang from the garage, a visible gap in the spring above the door, the opener straining while the door barely moves, or a door that feels very heavy.

Standard springs are commonly rated around 10,000 cycles — roughly 7 to 10 years for an average family. High-cycle springs last much longer.

Cold makes steel more brittle and puts extra stress on a spring that's already near the end of its life. The first hard freezes are our busiest spring-replacement days.

Please don't. Torsion springs store enough energy to cause serious injuries. Spring replacement should always be done by a trained technician with the right tools.

The door loses support on that side and can hang crooked, jam or fall. Stop using the opener and call us. Cables should be replaced in pairs.

Check that it's plugged in and the wall-button lock isn't on. If the motor runs but the door doesn't move, it could be a stripped gear or a broken spring. If the lights blink, it's usually the safety sensors.

The photo-eye safety sensors near the floor are blocked, dirty or misaligned — or the opener's force settings need adjusting.

Belt-drive and wall-mount (jackshaft) openers are the quietest choices, ideal when there's a bedroom above the garage.

Yes. We program remotes, keypads and most built-in car systems as part of every opener installation.

Most residential doors are installed in one day, including haul-away of the old door.

Often, yes — if a matching section is still made for your door. Otherwise, we'll quote a new door.

For attached garages, workshops, or rooms above the garage, insulated doors are quieter, stronger and help with Tennessee heat and cold.

Yes. Share your HOA's guidelines and we'll help you pick a style and color that fits.

Place a roll of paper towels on the floor under the door and close it. The door should reverse when it touches the roll. If not, stop using the opener and call us.

Once a year for most homes, or every six months for heavily used doors.

Stop using it, unplug the opener, keep everyone clear, and call us. Don't try to force it back into the track.

Only when the door is fully closed, or when you're sure the springs are intact. With a broken spring and the door open, pulling the release can make the door slam down.
