Keene Door

Most often, yes. If this is a new garage door that we will be installing, our estimator would have (in the measurement process) engineered a specific bottom seal to compensate for the gap. If this is an existing garage door, we often can replace or apply a new bottom seal, or rodent seal as a solution.

In most cases, no. As long as the door style is still being manufactured, we can simply replace the damaged panel sections. We replace panels of most major garage door manufacturers.

For commercial and industrial businesses, we recommend that overhead doors be tuned-up, tightened, and lubricated twice a year (spring and fall) depending on door type and usage. For residential garage doors, a service schedule of every other year is sound maintenance for the largest, most frequently used door of your house. (See our 19-point service schedule.)

The National Average for a garage door replacement value is 97.5% according to the Hanley Wood Remodeling Cost vs. Value Report. A garage door replacement even exceeds the recouped value of a kitchen or bath remodel! The data included the cost of removal and disposal of an existing 16 X 7-foot door, the installation of a new four-section door constructed of high tensile strength steel with two-coats of factory applied paint, foam insulated, insulated windows, heavy-duty galvanized tracks, and a lifetime warranty. Hardware included galvanized steel hinges and ball-bearing urethane rollers.

Several things could have happened. The most common after hearing a loud bang is likely a broken spring. Take a look to see if your springs are intact. If you have extension springs (these springs run along the horizontal track sections) check to see that both springs are attached and not dangling. If you have torsion spring(s) (these springs are directly above the door on a shaft) look to see if there is a break or split in the spring coil. We do NOT recommend operating the door if you have a broken spring to avoid injury and to avoid further damage to the door system. Call us to schedule a repair. We stock a large selection of extension spring weight ranges in our trucks/shop. We can usually affix a temporary repair on a torsion spring and follow with a new replacement in a week or less. Other factors besides broken springs, could be damaged track, broken cables, or pulleys. If you see anything broken, please call us to service your door. Your door has many parts that can be dangerous to work with, especially under tension. Our certified technicians have the training, equipment, and tools necessary to safely get your garage door back to working smoothly.

Follow these basic steps to program most garage door remotes. You will need a ladder to access your overhead operator: 1. Find the Learn button on the overhead operator (most often located on the back under one of the light covers) The Learn button will either be a small round yellow button, or on later models, a ½” square button either purple, green or red. 2. Once you have located this button, simply press it. Do not hold it in, just press and release. 3. After pressing the Learn button, press the button on your remote that you want to use to open this specific door. 4. After waiting 3-5 seconds, press the remote button again. If the remote made the sync with the operator, your door should start to move. If this doesn’t work, give us a call and we will try to walk you thru the process or schedule a service call to set this up for you. Depending on the year, make, and model of your opener, these steps may differ.

It could be a chain or belt misaligned but most likely, is a worn or stripped gear in the operator. We stock replacement gear kits for most major operators on our service vans/shop.

This could be a few things, but most likely the cause is that something is blocking the safety eyes (one on each side of the door mounted 4-6” at the bottom of the tracks). Check to see that nothing is blocking either of the eyes and that they a clear of dirt or cobwebs. Check to see that both eyes are lit and not blinking. One should be a solid (not blinking) green and the other a solid yellow/orange. If one is blinking, that means that one of the two eye sensors may have been bumped and is now out of alignment. Often a slight adjustment either up/down or in/out to the blinking sensor to get it solid (not blinking) will solve the problem. If not, you may have a broken wire or lack of power to one of the eye sensors. Another (unfortunately more expensive) cause may be a blown logic board in the opener. In instances where there may have been a power surge, we often see this. We stock logic boards for most Raynor, Chamberlain, and LiftMaster model openers.

There is no single fixed price as costs vary based on factors like style, size, insulation, and opener type. We provide custom recommendations tailored to your needs and budget.
