All of it is stocked on the van, which is why we can usually book you in the same day rather than three days out.

What Lemont customers say
Cables had frayed and one side dropped. Fixed same day, and he showed me the worn spot on the drum so I understood what had happened.
Door came off the track on a Sunday and would not close. They talked me through leaving it alone, turned up that afternoon, and had it back on in about an hour.
The door had been grinding for months and I assumed it needed replacing. Turned out to be rollers and a loose bracket. Cost me a fraction of what I had budgeted.
Garage door questions from Lemont homeowners
How long do garage door springs last?
Springs are rated in cycles rather than years. A standard set is around 10,000 open-and-close cycles, which is roughly seven to ten years for an average household. If you use the garage as your main entrance, expect closer to five, or ask us about high-cycle springs.
Which brands do you work on?
All the common ones. That includes LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman, Linear, Overhead Door, Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton and Raynor, plus most older units still running in Lemont garages.
Do you charge for the call-out?
The diagnostic is free when you go ahead with the repair. If you decide not to proceed there is a small visit charge, and we tell you what that is on the phone before we drive out to Lemont.
Do you serve areas around Lemont?
Yes. We cover Lemont and the surrounding Cook County towns, and we work across Illinois generally. If you are just outside the city limits, call (866) 651-0832 and we will confirm the slot and the travel time.
Should I keep using the door until you arrive?
No. If a spring has snapped, a cable is loose, or the door is sitting crooked, stop using the opener and leave the door where it is. Running it again can bend the track or drop the door, which turns a straightforward repair into an expensive one.
Can you fix my door today?
Usually, yes. The parts that fail most often on Lemont doors - springs, cables, rollers, drive gears and sensors - are all stocked on the vans, so most jobs are finished on the first visit rather than waiting on an order.
