We repair garage doors in Perth and the surrounding area: broken springs, snapped cables, doors off track, openers, sensors and weather seals. We also do tune-ups and supply new Garaga doors, including carriage-style designs that suit older homes.
Mokhtaar, the owner, does the work himself. Perth is over an hour from our base in Ottawa, so we serve it on scheduled out-of-town days. That way each job gets proper time instead of being squeezed in.
Perth is one of the older towns in Eastern Ontario, set on the Tay River and known for its stone heritage buildings. Many homes in town are older, and their garages were often built or rebuilt long after the house. Newer homes have been added on the outskirts over the years.
Older Perth garages are often detached, and some were converted from carriage houses or outbuildings. Doors can be wood or early steel, running on extension springs, with openers added years later. Many of these doors have been repaired more than once with whatever parts were on hand.
Newer homes on the edge of town usually have insulated steel doors with torsion springs and builder-grade openers. Since a standard spring is rated for roughly 10,000 cycles, a spring change is often due somewhere between seven and twelve years in, depending on how much the garage is used.
Many Perth owners want a garage door that suits a stone or older home. Carriage-style doors give the look of old swing-out doors but open like a regular sectional door. We supply Garaga doors in carriage-house styles, quoted by estimate.
For repairs, older detached garages need a careful look. We check the spring system first, since old extension springs without safety cables are a real hazard when they break. We also check the framing the tracks are mounted to, because older wood can loosen and let the tracks shift.
Parts of Perth have heritage rules for changes to the outside of buildings. If you're planning to change the look of a street-facing garage door, check with the Town of Perth before ordering.
Old extension springs or tired torsion springs, we replace them and add safety cables where needed.
