The local picture in Irvine
Irvine was planned on the old Irvine Ranch and incorporated as a city in December 1971. The Irvine Ranch Water District runs a dual system with separate pipes for drinking water and recycled water.
Summers are warm and dry, and Santa Ana winds raise fire risk in the fall. Two-car attached garages are standard in many neighborhoods here, and the door is often the main way people enter the house.
Earthquakes can knock tracks out of alignment. If the door binds after a shake, have it checked. Recycled water lines are purple, a color standard that started at the Irvine Ranch Water District.
A little prep helps
Do not try to open a door with a broken spring, since it can drop suddenly.

Quick answers
Is my garage door opener too old?
Openers made before the early 1990s may not have the safety reverse features required today. If yours lacks photo eyes, replacing it is worth considering.
Do you cover Westpark and Westpark?
Our network reaches Westpark, Great Park, Portola Springs and Quail Hill and the rest of Irvine (92602, 92603, 92604, 92606, 92612 and others). Whether a pro can come depends on their schedule, and we will let you know quickly either way.
Why does my door reverse before closing?
Usually the safety sensors are misaligned or blocked. Clean the lenses and check that both lights are steady. If the sensors look fine, the close force setting or a worn track may be the cause.
Why is my garage door so loud?
Worn rollers, loose hardware and dry hinges are common causes. A tune-up with new rollers and lubrication often makes a big difference.
Not in a rush? Say so. Flexible timing can make it easier to find someone with an opening.
