Sectional door repair and installation

Dock door repair and overhead door repair for warehouses, shops and service bays. We fix sectional steel and aluminum doors of every make, including doors we didn't install, and put in new Raynor and Northwest Door doors when a repair stops making sense.

What is the door doing?

Hit by a forklift

Call 425-776-5162

What we repair

Six parts do the work on a commercial sectional door

Any one of them can stop the door. Pick a number to see what goes wrong and what we do about it.

Springs and shaft

Springs wound on a shaft above the door carry its weight. They are rated for a set number of cycles, and a busy dock door uses them up fast. When one breaks, the door is too heavy to lift.

Repair comes first

Most sectional doors can be fixed

A crushed bottom section, a broken spring or a cable off its drum can be replaced without replacing the door. We repair, install and maintain these doors every day, and we tell you plainly when a new door is the better value.

Usually a repairFix it

  • One or two crushed bottom sections
  • A broken torsion spring
  • A cable off the drum or a door off the track
  • Worn rollers, hinges and bearings
  • An operator or control that quit

Time for a new doorReplace it

  • Sections no longer made for the door
  • Damage across most of the door
  • Rust through the sections or the track
  • The building now needs insulation or glass
  • Any make of door
  • Common parts in stock
  • 24/7 emergency repair

Maintenance: regular service catches worn springs, cables and rollers before they turn into an emergency call.

Sectional door questions we hear most

Not on the list? Call and ask. A person answers.

Call 425-776-5162
A forklift hit our dock door. Can it be repaired?

Usually. The bottom sections take most of the hits, and a damaged section can often be replaced on its own, along with any bent track. Leave the door where it is and call 425-776-5162. If the full repair needs parts, we secure the opening first.

The door will not open and a spring looks broken. What now?

Do not run the operator or try to lift the door. With a broken torsion spring nothing is balancing the door, so the operator is trying to lift its full weight. Call 425-776-5162, any hour. We replace the spring and balance the door.

Do you repair doors you didn't install?

Yes. We repair sectional doors of any make, including ones another company put in and ones that came with the building.

Is a sectional door the same as an overhead door or a dock door?

Usually. Most overhead and dock doors are sectional doors: hinged sections that ride up on tracks. A door that coils up above the opening is a rolling steel door.

Do you repair sectional aluminum and glass doors?

Yes. Sectional aluminum door repair covers damaged sections, bent stiles, and the same springs, cables and rollers a steel door has.
