⚠️ GARAGE DOOR SAFETY WARNING ⚠️
Never attempt DIY garage door spring replacement or repair. Garage door springs operate under extreme tension and can cause serious injury if improperly handled.
If your garage door won't close (security emergency), manually secure the door opening if possible and call for immediate service. Never leave an open garage creating break-in risk overnight.

Garage Door Emergency FAQ
Is it safe to manually operate a door with a broken spring?
No. Garage door springs counterbalance 150–400+ pounds. With a broken spring, the door is dangerous and extremely heavy. Call for professional help immediately.
My door is stuck open—what do I do?
Call 253-891-9622 for priority security dispatch. Do not leave the property unattended until the opening is secured.
Can you repair historic carriage house doors?
Yes. We specialize in preserving original carriage house doors while restoring modern functionality without destroying historic character.
