Q: How can I make my garage door safe?

• <div><p>Garage doors are heavy and close under power, so ensuring they're safe should be one of the priorities of a homeowner. Installing at least one sensor is a good start, but it doesn't hurt to have two, especially considering you can install a secondary system for <b>less than $100</b>. Remember that sensors require calibration and simple but regular maintenance checks&mdash; installing them is only the first step.</p></div>

Q: How long do garage doors last?

• <div><p>Garage doors generally last between <b>15 to 30 years</b>, depending on many factors.

Very pleased! Polite and professional. Came out same day we called. Re-keyed several doors for us, adjusted a door where the latch wasn't catching properly, and drilled holes for us to add a deadbolt to a door. Fair prices. Highly recommend.
