What Maryland customers say

★★★★★

The garage is under our bedroom. New belt drive and I no longer hear the school run at seven in the morning.

Alina K.Kensington, Maryland
★★★★★

Quoted three companies for a new insulated door. These guys were the only ones who measured properly and the only ones whose price did not move at the end.

Dan W.Kensington, Maryland
★★★★★

Called at eleven at night expecting an answering machine. A person picked up and someone was out by seven the next morning.

Garage Door Cable Repair in Kensington: your questions

My garage door is hanging crooked. Is it safe to use?

No. Stop using the opener, leave the door where it is and call us. Running a door with a broken cable can bend the tracks, damage panels and drop the door.

What causes a garage door cable to snap?

Rust from Maryland winters and road salt, fraying where the cable rubs a worn drum, or the shock load of a spring letting go. Cables are always replaced as a pair.

Can you get my door back on the track today?

In most cases, yes. Off-track doors are one of our most common Kensington emergency calls and we carry rollers, hinges and cable sets on the truck.

Do you work on commercial doors in Kensington?

Yes. Rolling steel shutters, sectional overhead doors, dock doors and commercial operators for Kensington shops, warehouses and fleet bays, with evening and weekend slots so you do not lose trading hours.

Can you fix my garage door the same day?

Usually, yes. Our vans carry torsion springs, cables, rollers, hinges, sensors and common openers, so the majority of Kensington repairs are finished on the first visit without ordering parts.

How fast can you get to Kensington?

Most Kensington calls are booked for the same day, and emergency jobs are usually inside a few hours. Ring (866) 651-0832 and we will give you a real arrival window on the call, not a vague promise of some time this week.
