If your garage door is stuck open overnight, your car is trapped inside, or the door came down hard and will not move, call now. Calls are answered 24 hours a day, and the pros we work with prioritize emergencies in Fort Collins, Loveland, Windsor and Timnath, with after hours pricing stated on the phone before anyone rolls.

Garage doors fail at the worst time by definition, because the worst time is whenever you need the door. A spring snaps at 6 am with the car inside. The door sticks open at midnight in January. A cable lets go on the one day you have a flight.

This page exists for those moments. The pros we refer stock the parts that fail in emergencies and answer the phone when the franchise office is closed. Call, describe the problem, and you get an honest arrival window and the full price before anyone is on the road.

Signs you need emergency repair

What the repair involves

  1. Call. Say where you are and what the door is doing. If it is after hours, the after hours rate is stated before dispatch.
  2. The tech secures the door first so it cannot fall, and gets the car out if that is the urgent part.
  3. The repair is quoted in full. Springs, cables, rollers and common opener parts are on the truck, so most emergency calls are finished in one visit.
  4. If a part has to be ordered (a specific panel, an unusual opener board), the door is secured and made safe to close until it arrives.

Why not DIY

If the door is stuck open, do not try to pull it closed with the opener; disconnect it with the red cord and close it by hand with a helper. If it is stuck closed, pull the cord and lift. If the door feels impossibly heavy, the spring is broken and two people are needed.
