Garage Door & Gate Repair in West Hollywood, CA

What West Hollywood garages and gates are up against

West Hollywood is 1.9 square miles of the densest housing in the county, and that changes what breaks. The typical call is not a single-family garage: it is the roll-up or slide gate on a 1960s and 1970s dingbat or courtyard apartment building, cycling forty or fifty times a day, with an operator that was sized for a house. Chains stretch, rollers flatten, and the gate begins hanging up halfway. The second most common call is the subterranean parking gate on a newer condo building, where the loop detector or the keypad has failed and the whole building is stuck.

The single-family pockets that do exist, in the West Hollywood West and Norma Triangle blocks and the streets north of Sunset, are small lots with detached garages on alleys. Those doors are narrow, often eight feet, and many are original wood one-piece doors that the current owner has had a screw-drive opener bolted to. The door was never balanced for an opener, so the opener works too hard and fails first.

Because we are based in the Hollywood Hills just above the city, West Hollywood is the shortest drive on our board. That matters most for the building calls, where a gate stuck open is a security problem and a gate stuck shut has twenty residents unable to get their cars out.
