Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions homeowners ask us:
How long does a garage door installation take?
A standard garage door installation typically takes 3-5 hours, depending on the complexity of the job and the type of door being installed. This includes removing the old door (if applicable), installing the new door, setting up the opener, and testing the system to ensure everything works perfectly. For custom doors or doors with unique features, installation may take slightly longer.
What are signs that my garage door springs need replacement?
There are several warning signs that indicate your garage door springs may need replacement: the door feels unusually heavy when lifting manually, you notice a gap in the torsion spring, the door won't stay open or closes too quickly, you hear loud banging or popping noises during operation, or the door appears crooked when opening or closing. If you notice any of these signs, contact a professional immediately—garage door springs are under high tension and can be dangerous to handle without proper training.
