We repair garage doors in Arnprior: broken springs, snapped cables, doors off track, openers, sensors and weather seals. We also do tune-ups and supply new Garaga doors.
Mokhtaar, the owner, does the work himself. We're based in Ottawa and drive out along Highway 417 for Arnprior jobs, at the same flat-rate prices we charge in the city.
Arnprior sits where the Madawaska River meets the Ottawa River, and it grew as a lumber town. The older part of town, near the downtown and the rivers, has homes built over a long stretch of time. As Highway 417 was extended west and the drive to Ottawa got easier, newer subdivisions went up around the edges of town.
Older Arnprior homes often have detached or added-on garages, sometimes with older doors, extension springs and openers that were installed later. In the newer subdivisions, most homes have insulated steel doors, torsion springs and builder-grade openers.
Those newer doors are now reaching the age where springs, rollers and openers start to go. A standard spring is rated for about 10,000 open-and-close cycles, and daily use eats into that faster than most people think.
A lot of Arnprior households now commute into Kanata or Ottawa. That makes the garage door the main entrance for many families, opening and closing several times a day. A door that's used that much wears out springs, rollers and opener gears faster than one that's opened once a week.
The rivers add their own wear. Homes near the water catch more wind, and winter wind drives snow against the bottom of the door. A worn bottom seal lets snow in and can freeze the door to the floor. When the opener tries to lift a frozen door, it can strip its gears or pull a cable loose.
A tune-up before winter, with a new bottom seal if the old one is cracked or flat, is one of the simplest ways to avoid that. Tune-ups start at $79 per door.
Daily commuter use wears springs faster. We replace them as a pair and rebalance the door.
