One call for the whole garage door
We work on the whole door: springs, cables, rollers, tracks, openers, panels, locks and the side door. Tell us what it is doing, send a photo if you can, and we tell you what it probably is and what it costs before anyone comes out.
Broken springs and cables
A broken spring is the most common reason a garage door will not lift. The spring holds the weight of the door under high tension, so do not try to lift the door by hand or with the opener. We replace the spring, check the cables and balance the door.
Garage door openers
We supply and install new openers and repair existing ones, then pair the remotes and keypad and test the safety sensors so the door reverses when it should.
Garage door locks, T-handles and keys
Coastal damp seizes garage locks, especially on laneway garages that face the weather. We repair or replace T-handles and slide locks, and can rekey the garage to the house key, where the cylinders share a keyway.
Garage door repair in Burnaby
Burnaby is a short drive from our Kitsilano shop, and we work on garage doors across it, from Metrotown townhouse strata to the detached houses around Burnaby Heights and Capitol Hill. Same springs, openers and locks, same prices as Vancouver.
Commercial roll-up and shutter doors
Roll-ups, shutters and steel service doors for shops, warehouses and strata parkades, with lock changes priced per door.
