A sharp crack from the garage, and the door is frozen at the floor. The spring does all the lifting, and with it gone, the door has no way to rise.
Our techs weigh the door to determine exact spring size and wire diameter for Boulder’s specific housing styles, perfectly adjusting coil tension.
You hit the button and the opener starts, but the door never moves, or it stalls before finishing the cycle. Stripped gears, a burnt board, or sensors out of line are where we look.
Never pull the red release cord while the door is open or jammed. Pull it only when the door is fully closed.
Your door is hanging at an angle or the rollers have left the track entirely. That door is heavy and not stable, so call us rather than attempting this yourself.
Keep people and vehicles clear until a technician secures it. Cable realignment isn't something a homeowner can do safely.

You will not be charged extra for a repair when the service has already been estimated.

We order panels cut to fit your existing door and fit a fresh bottom seal so the door closes flush and stops letting weather through.
The spring failure we see most on garage door repair Boulder CO calls is a snap with no warning.
With the spring gone, nothing is left to lift the door. Trying to open a door of this weight using the wall switch can then very quickly destroy the drive gear of the opener. Once a spring is broken, do not run the opener. Leave the door where it is and call a technician. On a door with two springs, we recommend replacing both at the same time. The second spring has the same miles on it as the first and often fails within weeks. The cycle life of the springs is severely affected by the temperature swings in Boulder from January to July, and a near end-of-life spring is most likely to fail on the coldest morning of the year.
We repair openers that grind, reverse suddenly, stall, or open the door a few inches and stop.
Problems can occur with the drive gear, logic board, photo eyes or the wiring connecting these parts. We also repair remotes, keypads and smart openers with cameras. Spring and cable work belongs to a trained technician, never a homeowner. The same goes for the drive gear and wiring inside the opener.
A fraying cable can snap at the worst possible moment and leave the door hanging crooked. Similarly, impact, frost heave of a concrete pad or simple wear and tear can cause tracks to bend.
Either one puts extra strain on the parts connected to it. The door can suddenly drop when a cable breaks or a track bends. A door that comes off track can weigh 200 pounds or more, and it can drop without warning. Techs making garage door repair Boulder CO calls for cable and track work have replacement cables, bottom brackets and other track parts on the truck.
Hail storms or even a car bump can cause a single panel to crack or bend. Most doors are built so a single panel can be swapped for a matching one. In addition to replacing damaged panels, we can also replace your garage doors torn bottom seal and side seal during our regular service hours.

A call for emergency garage door repair Boulder CO gets the same stocked truck and the same written quote process as any daytime job.
Boulder is a Front Range town, known for a cold overnight temperature and a 50 degree temperature swing by afternoon.
This means that steel will contract as it gets cold and expand as it gets warm. As a result, door hardware can become loose, old door seals can crack, and the spring in your newer door can wear out faster than normal. The International Door Association publication provides recommended maintenance for doors that are operating in high-swing climates like this and can help extend the life of your door.
A lot of the housing stock in central Boulder dates from the 1960s through the 1980s, and the garage doors on those homes are often original or close to it.Read more

Before anything else: the red release cord is only pulled when the door is fully closed and resting on the floor. A door under spring tension can drop suddenly, so never pull it while the door is open or jammed. With the door closed, pulling the cord disconnects it from the opener so it can be moved by hand. If the door won’t budge by hand, that’s a call for garage door repair Boulder CO, not something to force.
There are a few common things that can make a door noisy. First, there are the rollers on the door track. These often get dry and start to grind or bang.

Yes. The steel becomes less forgiving in cold weather. A spring near the end of its life is far more likely to fail on a cold morning than on a mild one. If a door has been slow to close or noisy prior to winter, it is worth checking prior to the season commencing.
With a two-spring door both springs are typically of a similar age and have had similar numbers of cycles. Therefore when one spring does break the other is not far behind. It makes good sense to change both springs at the same time in order to make sure that the door is equally balanced and we won’t have to return within a few weeks to change the second spring. On site we will explain why we have done this and you can then do as you feel is appropriate.
