A garage that won't close at night is an open door into the house, and a car that can't get out is a missed shift. Those two calls come first, along with doors hanging off their tracks. Tell us which it is. The door is made safe first, then fixed, and the estimate is free.

Right now, before we get there

Door stuck open: get the car where the door can't reach it, take in anything that would walk off, and lock the inside door that leads from the garage into the house. Door hanging crooked: nobody under it, nobody shoving it straight, the opener left off. A spring that just went: leave the button alone, because the opener grinds its own gear trying to lift a weight it was never built for.

When you call, three facts do most of the work: what the door is doing, whether a car is stuck behind it, and whether the house can be locked tonight. Everything else the technician finds out at the door.

Who gets seen first

Open houses and stuck cars lead the list, then doors that could fall. A door that still opens and closes, even badly, is booked for the morning, when the work can be done in daylight without rushing.

Nobody jumps the line because their repair is bigger. A two-minute latch fix on a door that won't close outranks a full spring job on a door that still works.

The usual reasons a door quits at night

Springs are the most common, and they tend to go in the cold, first thing in the morning or late at night. Next is a door knocked off its track: a car nudging the bottom section on a tight driveway, or a roller that finally seized. Cables that jump their drums follow a weak spring. And openers die after a storm, when the power comes back with a spike.

None of those is a reason to be sold a new door. Each is a part, and the parts for the common doors ride on the truck, which is why most emergency calls finish on the first visit.

The visit, start to finish

It runs in the same order at two in the afternoon or two in the morning.

  1. On the phoneWhat the door is doing, what's stuck, and whether you can lock up. That sets the order.
  2. An honest timeA realistic arrival, and a call if it changes, so nobody stands at the window for nothing.
  3. Safety firstThe door is propped or brought down under control, and the opener unplugged before anyone reaches into the tracks.
  4. The estimate on paperTonight's fix and anything else that's worn, listed separately. Free; you choose.
  5. Proved before we goThe door balanced by hand, run on the opener, stopped and reversed by an object in its path, and locked.

When a part has to be ordered

A bent section or an unusual door size sometimes means ordering the part. When that happens, the door isn't left open: it's closed and locked, or secured so it can be worked safely by hand, and you get the date before the technician leaves.

For a business, a door that won't close means an open storefront or a stockroom. Commercial sectional and rolling doors get the same order of calls, and the building is closed up first.

Where the calls come from

Tight driveways in Bay Ridge, Marine Park and Mill Basin, attached garages in Kensington and Flatbush, detached garages on shared driveways in Bayside and Fresh Meadows, and the two-car doors of Levittown, Massapequa, Hicksville and the towns east of them. The truck carries the same parts everywhere it goes.

Give us the block and the cross street; the window you get is one we can keep.

Rules that don't change at night

Nothing is named over the phone. The fix comes from looking at the door.

Two-spring doors get two springs. One new beside one old pulls the door crooked.

A door out of its track isn't shoved back. Whatever pushed it out gets found first.

The garage is closed when we leave. Even if a part has to be ordered.

Questions we get asked

It's late and my garage door won't close.

Lock the inside door, move what you can out of sight, and call. Forcing a door down usually bends the track and turns one repair into two.

My car is stuck behind the door and I need it early.

Tell us that first. The usual cause is a broken spring, which gets fixed on the visit, and stuck cars are seen before anything that can wait.

The door is crooked and half out of its track.

Stay out from under it and leave the opener unplugged. It's braced before anything else happens.

Does a night call change anything?

Only the order of the calls. The estimate is still written before work, and the parts and the testing are the same.

Do you handle store and warehouse doors?

Yes, commercial sectional and rolling doors too. The building is closed up first, then the repair is planned.

Is the estimate free at night too?

Free, and written before anyone starts.

Getting on the schedule

One call gets you a two-hour window and a call from the technician before pulling up, which on most blocks here means finding a spot too. Nobody on the phone names a fix for a door they can't see.
