What affects the price

When you call for a quote, the final number depends on a few specific factors. First, we need to know the extent of the damage—is it a simple spring replacement or a full door replacement? The materials you choose, like steel versus wood, and the complexity of the hardware or opener system, will also shift the total. If parts are specialized or if the track needs significant realignment, that impacts labor hours. We evaluate your specific setup to provide an accurate estimate. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Your safety sensors rely on a clear line of sight to keep the door from closing on people or pets. If the indicator lights are blinking or the door refuses to stay down, the sensors are likely misaligned. We precisely adjust the brackets to ensure the infrared beams connect perfectly. You need this service whenever your door reverses immediately upon closing or if the safety lights show an error code. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
