Common questions
Can I use my garage door if a cable is frayed?
It's best not to. A frayed cable can snap and let the door fall or hang crooked. Leave it closed and call for repair.
How long do garage door springs last?
Many are rated for around 10,000 cycles, which can be several years of typical use. Heavy daily use, cold weather and skipped maintenance all shorten that life.
Is there anything local about garage door repair in Cupertino?
Stevens Creek runs north from the Santa Cruz Mountains through the city. Most homes went up between the 1950s and 1970s as orchards gave way to tracts. Apple Park, Apple's headquarters, opened in Cupertino in 2017. Those details help the garage door company plan the visit.
