Garage door questions, answered for Berkeley

Local weather drives most of the repairs we run in Berkeley: with warm and freeze-thaw cycles that crack seals and loosen hardware, summer heat and humidity that swell wood doors and rust steel, and humid summers that seize hinges and rollers, the common failure modes are cold-snapped torsion springs in deep winter, corroded low brackets from winter slush, rusted hardware from snowmelt and road salt, and humidity-swollen wood doors in summer. Our Berkeley trucks stock the parts those conditions wear out first, so most jobs are a single visit.

In Berkeley it is usually cold-snapped torsion springs in deep winter — and because the area has predominantly single-family homes with attached garages, plus a core of older in-town residences, we also see a lot of corroded low brackets from winter slush. Both are stocked on the truck, so most repairs are one and done.
