Garage door repair in Santa Monica

Santa Monica, CA

Garage doors in salt air and narrow alleys

Santa Monica sits right on the water, and the marine air is hard on metal. Springs, cables, hinges and roller bearings rust faster here than they do a few miles inland, and a door that ran smoothly two years ago can start to drag and groan. We replace corroded hardware, clean and lubricate what can be saved, and tell you plainly which parts are close to failing. On older bungalows in Ocean Park and Sunset Park we also see wood doors that have swelled or split from the damp, and we can repair them or quote a replacement.

Many Santa Monica garages open onto alleys, often with tight turns, trash bins and a neighbor's car close by. Our technicians are used to working in that space and keeping the alley clear while they work. Apartment and condo buildings across the city also rely on parking gates, roll-up doors and intercoms that see heavy use every day. We repair gate motors, keypads and access control for those buildings too. The team drives in from Sherman Oaks over the 405, and you get the price before any work starts.
