I have a detached garage without electrical service and a simple four-panel steel garage door. Several months ago one of the garage door springs broke. I attempted to replace the spring, but ran into some issues with the operation of the door (I could not get it level and the whole thing wasn?t square with the opening). Other than the obvious broken spring and some minor cosmetic damage (dents, rust, etc.), the lock on the garage door was non-functional (and the key long lost).
I called All-American Overhead Garage Doors after finding them on Angie?s List and spoke with the owner/installer, Eric. (I should mention that I did not call any other contractors for this job, and that I limited my search to nearby contractors.) We made an appointment to meet, and he arrived on-time the next day (12/12/2014). Eric was friendly, punctual and professional. I provided him with a brief history of the problem, and he assessed the situation.
Eric found the radius of the existing garage door track to be undersized. As a result, the bottom of the door would never properly clear the header of the opening, and the door would be unnecessarily difficult to operate (less smooth). Eric provided me with an estimate to replace the tracks (using a larger radius at the header) and install a new door with springs, a lock bar and vinyl weather stripping trim around the opening. He was professional and his price was fair, so we tentatively scheduled the work (he mentioned that his schedule was full and that he may not have time to do this before Christmas, which was fine with me since this wasn?t an emergent repair).
Eric called me several days later (12/16/2014) to schedule the work (to be done earlier than expected on the 19th). On the day of the installation (12/19/2014) Eric arrived on-time and, as expected, conducted himself professionally. He removed the old door and installed the new one in a timely fashion, leaving the area clean and ready for use. The new door is remarkably smoother than the old one and sits above the garage door header (he was right about the radius of the track).
In summary, Eric (All-American Overhead Garage Doors) was professional and responsive, assessed the problem, and installed a quality product in a reasonable amount of time. I would highly recommend him for garage door installation and repair.
The problem was the opener is almost 20 years and the gears were getting worn down when it was engaging with the chain attached to the opener.
The opener was able to be rebuilt because of All American Overhead's ability and experience to provide a low cost solution to a well used opener.
