Most overhead door failures are a single worn component taking the rest of the assembly with it. A broken spring, a frayed cable, a seized roller, a bent track, a panel hit by a forklift. Caught early they are a routine repair. Left alone they become a door replacement, and in the meantime the opening is unusable.
We repair sectional and rolling doors of every size, from a single-bay service door to a full dock wall, on call-out or on a maintenance cycle.
Springs and counterbalance. Torsion and extension springs, shafts, drums, cables and bearing plates — the assembly that does the actual lifting, and the one that fails loudest.
Tracks, rollers and hinges. Realignment after impact, worn rollers, damaged track, hinge and strut replacement.
Panels and sections. Single-section replacement where the rest of the door is sound, full replacement where it is not.
Operators and controls. Trolley, jackshaft and hoist operators, limit and force settings, push-button stations, radio and card activation, interlocks.
Safety devices. Photo eyes, reversing edges, and the entrapment protection that has to work before a powered door goes back into service.
Weather sealing. Bottom astragals, jamb and header seals, and the heat loss that comes with ignoring them.
Doors in active shipping areas get hit. That is not a maintenance failure, it is the nature of the building. What is avoidable is the second and third strike on a door that was never protected after the first.
When we repair an impact, we say plainly whether the position needs bollards or guarding, and what it will cost. You can decide to accept the risk, but you should decide it knowingly rather than discover it in next quarter’s repair spend.
Overhead doors are the clearest case for preventive maintenance anywhere in a building, because their wear is a function of cycles and cycles can be counted. A door working 200 times a day does not belong on the same interval as one working twice a week.
Program doors are tagged, inspected on a cycle that reflects their real duty, and reported with photographs. Our preventive maintenance programs cover overhead doors alongside entrances, fire doors and hardware, on one schedule and in one report.
