Our Garage Door Repair Services — Princeton, NJ

Emergency & Same-Day Repairs

We respond quickly to broken springs, off-track doors, snapped cables, and failed openers so your family and property stay safe.

Spring & Cable Repair/Replacement

Torsion and extension springs wear out and are dangerous to handle. Our certified techs replace springs and cables safely and restore proper balance.

Door Off-Track & Panel Repair

Panels bent in an accident or doors that jump the track get repaired or replaced with matched parts and precise realignment.

Opener Diagnostics & Repair

We troubleshoot motors, gears, belts, and circuit boards — and offer replacement when repair isn’t cost-effective. Wi-Fi opener troubleshooting and reprogramming are included.

Sensor, Track & Roller Maintenance

Misaligned sensors, worn rollers, and dirty tracks cause noisy, unreliable operation. We adjust, lubricate, and replace parts to restore smooth function.

Weatherstripping & Thresholds

Keep out drafts, pests, and water with new bottom seals, thresholds, and side weatherstripping — especially useful for Princeton’s seasonal weather.

FAQs

  • Do you replace springs the same day?

    Yes — if the correct parts are available. We stock common spring sizes and can order specialty parts quickly.

  • Is It Safe to Try to Open a Door With a Broken Spring?

    No. Broken springs store dangerous tension. Leave the door closed and call us — we’ll handle it safely.

  • How Long Will a Typical Repair Take?

    Most repairs (springs, cables, sensors, rollers) are completed in 1–3 hours. More extensive panel or track replacements may take longer.

  • Do You Work on All Brands?

    Yes — we service almost all major garage door and opener brands and can recommend modern replacements if needed.
