We cover Claremont from the Village and the streets around the Colleges to the neighbourhoods off Indian Hill, Mountain and Towne, and the newer tracts north of Base Line toward Padua. We are often able to attend the same day and otherwise book you the next morning. Diagnosis and estimates are free, and we work 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM, seven days a week.
North Claremont is full of large family homes with wide double and three-car garages, and a question we get asked here more than anywhere is whether to fit one spring or two. On a wide door, a single torsion spring carries the entire weight on its own, so when it breaks the door is completely immovable and, if it happens while the door is moving, the drop is sudden. Two balanced springs share the load, each works within a gentler stress range and lasts longer, and if one fails the other still supports part of the weight, so the door usually settles rather than slamming. It costs a little more up front and it is the better answer on any heavy door. In the older Village and college-area streets the question rarely arises, because those garages are narrow, detached and generally on extension springs that need containment cables more than anything else.
We calculate spring size from the actual door weight and fit single or paired torsion springs to suit, replace cables, rollers, hinges and track, reset off-track doors, add containment cables on extension-spring doors, and repair or replace openers. Photo-eye safety sensors are fitted where they are missing. Every visit ends with a balance test and a reverse test. Licensed and insured, California license #1149841.
