What we fix most in Essex

Opener won't respond

Remote dead, wall button does nothing, or the motor hums but the door doesn't move. We repair logic boards, gears and sensors, and tell you plainly when a new opener is the better value.

Door off its track

A door that's crooked, jammed or hanging on one cable. Don't force it. We reset the rollers, straighten or replace bent track, and fix whatever caused it to jump.

Door reverses before closing

Nine times out of ten the safety sensors are misaligned or dirty. The rest of the time it's a travel-limit or force setting. Quick to diagnose, usually quick to fix.

Damaged panels

A bumped bumper or storm debris dents a section. If the rest of the door is sound we replace just the panel, color-matched, instead of the whole door.

Garage doors and freezing winters

Cold makes steel springs brittle and ice can freeze the bottom seal to the slab. Most winter calls here are snapped springs and doors that won't lift; we carry cold-rated springs and seals.

About homes in Essex

Essex has a mix of older houses with wood doors and newer subdivisions with steel doors. We carry parts for both, including the lighter extension springs older single doors use.

Questions from Essex customers

My door is stuck halfway. Should I pull the red cord?

Not if the door is crooked or a spring looks broken — the door can drop. Leave it, keep people and cars clear, and call us.

Do you charge extra to come to Essex?

No. Essex is inside our regular South Burlington service area. The service call fee is the same, and it's applied to the repair.

Do I need to be home?

Someone needs to let us into the garage and approve the price. After that you're free to go; we lock up and leave the invoice.

Can you replace just one spring?

We can, but we don't recommend it. Springs are installed as a matched pair and the second one fails soon after the first. Replacing both at once costs less than two visits.
