COMPLETE LIGHT-DUTY COMMERCIAL DOOR REPAIR
From a photo-eye realignment to a full spring-and-operator rebuild, we fix what’s failing and tell you plainly when a repair no longer makes sense.
SPRINGS & CABLES
Heavier torsion springs sized for commercial doors, replaced in pairs with cables and drums checked for wear.
OPERATORS & CONTROLS
Jackshaft and trolley operators, wall stations, remotes and photo eyes repaired or replaced so the door runs on command.
OFF-TRACK & ROLLERS
Doors clipped by a truck or forklift put back on the rails, bent track straightened and rollers swapped.
PANELS & SECTIONS
Dented or rusted sections matched to the existing door so you replace a panel, not the whole thing.
MOST GARAGE DOORS DON’T NEED REPLACING. THEY NEED THE RIGHT REPAIR.
GearHouse is a repair company first. We install new doors only when we truly have to. So when we say a spring or cable will fix it, that’s a repair, not a sales pitch.
A snapped spring, a frayed cable, a bent track or a dented section looks dramatic, but it’s one part on an otherwise good door. Fixing that part costs a fraction of a new door, keeps the opener and hardware you already own, and is usually done the same day.

SIGNS YOUR COMMERCIAL DOOR NEEDS SERVICE
Commercial doors cycle far more than a home door. Catching these early is the difference between a quick service call and a bay that’s stuck shut on a Monday morning.
Door stalls or reverses
The operator runs but the door hesitates, stops or reverses partway. Usually a balance or sensor issue.
Grinding or chain slap
Worn sprockets, dry rollers or a loose chain on a trolley operator.
Door hangs crooked
One side sits higher than the other: a cable has slipped or snapped.
Slow, heavy or sagging
A door that struggles or drifts down is out of balance and losing its spring.
Loud bang in the shop
The classic sound of a torsion spring breaking. Keep staff clear and call.
Photo eyes blinking
Misaligned or dirty safety sensors stop the door from closing at the end of the day.
DOOR DOWN DURING BUSINESS HOURS?
A stuck commercial door puts the full weight on the operator and cables. Don’t force it or run the operator. Businesses get priority scheduling and same-day service.
