Frequently Asked Questions for Homeowners
How often should I have my garage door serviced?
We recommend annual professional maintenance for residential doors. This catches small issues before they become costly repairs and ensures safety features are working properly.
How long does a residential garage door last?
With proper maintenance, a quality garage door can last 15-30 years. Springs typically need replacement every 7-10 years, and openers last 10-15 years.
Should I get an insulated door for my attached garage?
Yes, especially in Colorado. Insulated doors help regulate temperature in the garage, reduce noise, and lower energy bills if you have a room above the garage.
How do I know if my garage door is safe for my children?
Test the auto-reverse feature monthly, keep remotes out of reach, and schedule an annual safety inspection. We can check all safety features during a maintenance visit.
Do you offer discounts for seniors or veterans?
Yes, we offer a 10% discount for veterans, active military, and seniors (65+). Just mention it when you call.
What should I do in an emergency when my door won't close?
If the door won't close, it may be unsafe. Call us immediately at (303) 495-6120. If you must leave, ensure the door is secure and keep children and pets away.
Can you match my existing door style if I need one panel replaced?
Often yes. We can source replacement panels for many door models. If your door is older, we may recommend full replacement for consistent appearance.
Do you offer maintenance plans?
Yes, we offer annual maintenance plans for homeowners. Ask about our Preferred Customer Program for priority service and discounts.
