1. Gil's Garage Doors & Gates
Based in Berkeley, CA, Gil's Garage Doors & Gates works as a garage door repair technician. A team of 6, the business has been operating for 41 years. During a service call, expect the technician to run the door, listen for grinding or popping, check the photo eye sensors, and lubricate moving parts. Repairs are explained before work begins, and the door is tested several times afterward, including the auto-reverse function. Typical jobs for garage door repair in Berkeley include broken torsion springs, snapped lift cables, doors that reverse before closing, bottom seal replacement and worn hinges. Openers that hum without moving, remotes that stop working, or a dented panel that catches on the track are frequent reasons to call for repair. Mention whether a car is stuck inside, roughly how old the door is, and whether a new opener, keypad, or remote is also wanted. Most of the gap between one garage door repair quote and another comes from part type, such as springs, cables, rollers, or an opener motor, and the size of the door. Customers in Berkeley and nearby areas such as Emeryville, Albany and Orinda can request a quote. Posted hours are Monday to Sunday, 8:00 am to 8:00 pm. Accepted payment methods include Cash, Check, Credit card, PayPal, Venmo and Zelle. To get started, send Gil's Garage Doors & Gates a request on Fixerlane with the details of your project.
