We spoke to Holly on Friday morning and by about noon Shawn came to repair our large overhead industrial door. It took him about 5 minutes to repair. The service could not have been more prompt and professional!!!

Had some damage to my garage door track last winter after a storm, Apex was able to come out very quickly and repaired the damage and even secured some other spots in the garage that could use reinforcement, for a very reasonable price.

What We Fix
Common Garage Door Repairs in Philadelphia
Most doors fail the same few ways. Whatever yours is doing, the truck that shows up carries the parts to fix it, and every repair links below if you want the detail first.
Broken springs
The most common failure and the most dangerous to touch. We replace torsion and extension springs matched to the door. Learn more
Snapped or frayed cables
A failing cable makes a door heavy, crooked or impossible to lift. Learn more
Door off its track
Bumped by a car or jumped off a worn roller, we re-seat and realign it. Learn more
Opener not responding
Remotes, keypads, boards and motors, diagnosed and repaired. Learn more
Door will not open or close fully
Limits, sensors or balance, we find which one is lying to the opener. Learn more
Grinding, squealing or banging

Beyond Repairs
Openers, New Doors & the Catalogs to Pick From
Garage Door Openers
Openers fail more often than doors in the city: remotes lost, boards fried by power blinks, motors worn out by rowhome doors heavier than they should be. We repair openers of most brands and install new LiftMaster units, including battery backup models that keep working through an outage and smart openers you can check from your phone.
Every opener install includes a balance check on the door itself, because an opener dragging an unbalanced door dies young.
New Doors, Sized for the City
When a door is past saving we replace it, measured to the inch for openings that rarely match suburban standard. Browse the residential Apex garage doors lineup, or go straight to the C.H.I. catalogs:
The full set, commercial lines included, lives on our catalogs page.

Straight Answers
Philadelphia Garage Door Repair FAQs
How much does garage door repair cost in Philadelphia?
It depends on what failed: a spring replacement, a cable, an opener repair and a full door replacement all price differently. We do not quote blind over the phone; we look at the door, tell you exactly what it needs, and give you the price in writing before any work starts. Estimates are free and our repairs carry a 90-day warranty.
How fast can you get to my Philadelphia home?
Our shop is in Southampton, about twenty minutes up Route 1 from Northeast Philadelphia, so most city calls are reached the same day. For a door that will not close at night or a spring that snapped this morning, the 24-hour emergency line gets a technician moving around the clock.
My rowhome garage opening is not a standard size. Can you still fit a door?
Yes. Odd-sized openings are normal in Philadelphia rowhomes and twins, and we measure and order doors to the inch rather than forcing a standard size to fit. Low-headroom track hardware covers garages with little space above the opening.
Do you repair garage door openers or just the doors?
Both. We repair openers that hum, click or do not respond, and when a unit is past saving we install new LiftMaster openers, including models with battery backup and smartphone control. If the real problem is a dead spring making the door too heavy, we will tell you that instead of selling you an opener.
What happens if my door fails at night or on a weekend?
Call the emergency line. It answers 24 hours a day, every day of the year, at (215) 942-2739 or toll free (888) 849-APEX (2739). A door stuck open on a Philadelphia street is a security problem, and we treat it like one.
Do you handle commercial doors in the city too?
Yes. Storefront security grilles, rolling steel service doors, counter shutters, fire doors and loading dock equipment are all in-house work for our commercial crew, with the same 24-hour coverage.
