Garage Door Repair in the City of Las Vegas

Prestige Garage Door Services works out of an office on South Maryland Parkway in downtown Las Vegas. The work itself is mobile, so every job happens at your address, but this page is about the City of Las Vegas specifically: which streets are actually in the city, how old the doors are here, and why the oldest neighborhoods in the valley fail differently from the newest.

Who we work for in Las Vegas

Residential, commercial and RV doors in Las Vegas

Three different machines with three different failure patterns. We work on all of them in Las Vegas, and we quote them differently because they are not the same job.

Homes

Garage doors in the City of Las Vegas

The city proper holds the oldest housing on this list. Huntridge, John S. Park and Beverly Green are pre-war and post-war streets where a garage is often detached, often a single bay, and sometimes still running a one piece door that swings outward as it lifts. Those doors are repairable, but the parts are not the ones carried for a 2005 tract home.

Downtown and the streets around the Arts District mix that older stock with renovation, so a lot of doors here have been part replaced over the years by different people. When the spring, the track and the opener come from three different decades, the sensible first move is an inspection of the whole assembly rather than a quote on whichever part failed last.

Business and industrial

Commercial doors in downtown Las Vegas

The Arts District and the blocks around it are full of buildings that started as warehouses and are now something else, and almost all of them kept the door. Roll-up steel doors on converted shopfronts, loading openings that now serve as entrances, and commercial operators that have been running since long before the current tenant arrived.

The Charleston and Bonanza corridors add the working version: auto shops, trade counters and small warehouses where the door is used hard all day. On an older commercial door the honest question is whether the curtain and the guides are still sound, because an operator can be replaced and a worn out door cannot be rescued by fitting one.

RV and oversized

RV and oversized doors in the City of Las Vegas

Purpose built RV garages are rare on the older city streets, simply because they were not being drawn when those streets were laid out. What is common is the deep older lot with a gated side yard, a long driveway and sometimes a detached shop at the rear, and that is where oversized openings turn up in Las Vegas proper.

Converting or replacing an opening on an older building is where the care goes. Headroom above the opening, the condition of the framing and what the header can actually carry all decide whether a taller door is possible, before any spring is specified. We look at that first and say so plainly when the answer is no.

Where we work

Garage doors in Las Vegas

The City of Las Vegas is a specific municipality, and it is smaller than what most people mean by the name. It was incorporated on March 16, 1911 with about 800 residents on 19.18 square miles. The part that surprises people: the Strip is not in it. The resort corridor sits in the unincorporated townships of Paradise and Winchester, which are Clark County, not city. So are Enterprise, Spring Valley and most of the southwest valley. The city runs north and west of downtown instead, and downtown itself holds the oldest surviving housing in the Las Vegas Valley. That is the whole story for garage doors here. Where the newer suburbs are working through their first or second set of springs, the city core has doors and openers that predate every safety standard now taken for granted.

Garage door repair in the City of Las Vegas

These are the nine services this site covers. In the city core the call mix skews differently than it does out in the newer suburbs, because the doors are older, lighter and more often original to the house. Springs and cables still carry the weight and are still what breaks first, but here they are frequently the original hardware rather than a replacement set.

Why downtown doors are a different job

Huntridge went up between 1941 and 1944 and kept building through the 1970s, and the John S. Park Historic District just south of it holds homes from the 1930s and 1940s, which makes it the oldest historic district in the city. Beverly Green and the Arts District sit in the same band. These are not tract subdivisions with one door spec repeated a thousand times. They are individual houses with individual garages, some detached, some added later, some opening onto an alley.

That changes the work in a few practical ways. Original single-car openings are narrower than anything sold as standard today, so a replacement door is more often a made-to-size order than an off-the-shelf pull. Wooden doors are still in service here, and a wooden door that has been repainted five or six times over eighty years is measurably heavier than the door the spring was originally sized for. That extra weight is enough on its own to put a spring out of specification, which is why an old door that suddenly feels heavy is usually a balance problem and not an opener problem.

Detached garages and alley-facing doors are also far more common in the city core than in the master planned communities. An alley door takes more knocks, gets less shelter from wind-driven dust, and is more likely to have had a previous owner fit whatever hardware was available rather than the correct part.

Extension springs and openers built before the 1993 rule

Doors of this vintage frequently run extension springs, which stretch along the horizontal tracks rather than winding on a bar above the opening. An extension spring needs a containment cable threaded through it, because when it lets go the spring itself becomes a projectile. On doors this old the containment cable is often missing, corroded, or was never fitted in the first place. It is the first thing worth looking at on any garage in Huntridge or John S. Park, ahead of anything to do with the opener.

Openers are the other one. Federal rules from 1993 require an automatic residential opener to have an external entrapment protection system, which in practice means the photo eyes mounted a few inches off the floor on both sides of the opening. Units installed before that rule have no photo eyes at all, and plenty of them are still running in city-core garages. If there are no sensors near the floor, the opener predates the requirement and the door will keep closing on whatever is under it.

None of that makes an old door a bad door. A well-built 1950s door that has been kept in balance will outlast a neglected modern one. It does mean the inspection is different: on a newer suburban door the question is usually how many cycles the springs have left, and on a city-core door the question is usually whether the door is safe as currently fitted.

Permits inside the city limits

Where the city line falls has one concrete consequence. A job inside the City of Las Vegas that needs a permit goes through the city, while the same job a few streets away in Paradise, Winchester or Enterprise goes through Clark County, and a job north of the line goes through the City of North Las Vegas. Routine repairs, springs, cables, rollers and opener swaps are not usually the issue. It matters more on a full door replacement or structural work around the opening.

Where in Las Vegas

Neighborhoods and ZIP codes we cover in Las Vegas

The work is mobile, so every job happens at your address. Pick out your part of Las Vegas below.

Huntridge Built between 1941 and 1944 and extended through the 1970s, so the garages run from wartime-era single bays to midcentury modern additions. Expect original openings narrower than a modern standard door, and extension spring systems that may never have had containment cables.
John S. Park The city's oldest historic district, immediately south of Huntridge, with homes from the 1930s and 1940s. Many garages here are detached or were added after the house, which means the door, the framing and the opener are often three different ages.
Beverly Green Same postwar band as its neighbors and part of the same historic core. Wooden doors that have been repainted repeatedly are common, and the accumulated paint weight is a frequent cause of a door that has quietly gone out of balance.
Downtown and the Arts District A mix of residential garages and small commercial roll-up doors on shops and light industrial units. Commercial doors here run more cycles per day than any house does, so they reach their cycle rating years sooner.
Historic Las Vegas The wider ring of pre-1970 neighborhoods around the core, including Scotch 80s, Rancho Circle, West Las Vegas and Paradise Palms, where one-piece doors and detached garages are normal. Some of them, Paradise Palms among them, are in unincorporated Clark County rather than the city.

Every garage door service we run in Las Vegas, what each one usually involves here, and where to read more.

Garage door repair in Las Vegas

A first call starts with the whole system, not the one part you already blame. The technician checks balance, springs, cables, rollers and track, then runs the opener and watches the safety reverse before naming a cause. That full look matters more on the older 89101 and 89104 streets than it does in a newer suburb, because a garage there often carries hardware from three different decades. Inspections are free and there is a $0 trip fee, so finding out what is wrong costs you nothing.

Garage door repairs in Las Vegas

Old doors rarely break one part at a time. Around John S. Park the door, the framing and the opener are frequently three different ages, so one fault is usually sitting on top of two older ones. Safety sets the order of work: anything that could let the door drop gets handled before the items that are only annoying.

Garage door service in Las Vegas

Service is the visit you book before anything breaks, on your calendar instead of at eleven at night. Huntridge went up between 1941 and 1944 and kept building into the 1970s, so a booked visit there is often the first proper look anyone has taken at hardware that has been working for eighty years. Doors give quiet warnings long before they quit. Same day appointments are available when a slot is open.

Broken garage door springs in Las Vegas

A spring letting go is loud, and people describe it as a bang or a gunshot. Many John S. Park garages are detached or were added after the house, so the noise can pass unnoticed indoors and the first sign is a door that will barely move. Leave it closed, use the side door, and call (725) 485-3587.

Garage door spring repair in Las Vegas

A torsion spring holds enough stored energy to break bones, and it has to be let down under control with proper winding bars before anything comes off the bar. That is technician work whatever a video makes it look like, so please keep your hands off spring hardware entirely. Extension springs are no safer, and Huntridge is full of them. Our vans carry the bars, the sized springs and the small parts that go with them.

Garage door spring replacement in Las Vegas

When one spring goes, the other is the same age and has taken the same cycles, so replacing both keeps the door balanced and saves a second visit. Matching matters as much as the pair, because a spring is sized to the weight, height and track radius of one particular door. Beverly Green is the clearest case in the city, where wooden doors have been repainted so often that the door now weighs more than the door the original spring was chosen for.

Garage springs replacement in Las Vegas

Torsion springs wind on a steel bar above the opening, while extension springs stretch along the horizontal tracks on each side. Extension systems are common on doors of Huntridge and Beverly Green vintage, and each one needs a containment cable threaded through it so a break cannot throw the spring across the garage. On doors this old that cable is often missing, corroded or was never fitted, which makes it the first thing worth checking. Which type you have changes the parts, the work and what a safe result looks like.

Garage door springs maintenance in Las Vegas

Springs are rated in cycles rather than years, and one open plus one close is a cycle. A two car household burns a set far faster than a single driver who leaves once a day, which is why age on its own tells you very little. Upkeep keeps the rest of the door from leaning on the spring: clean track, rollers that actually roll, hardware that stays tight. On the one-piece doors still hanging in West Las Vegas that upkeep counts for even more, and the spring hardware itself stays a technician's job.

Garage door cable repair in Las Vegas

A spring carries the weight and a cable passes that lift down to the bottom bracket on each side, so the two work as one system. When a cable frays, jumps its drum or snaps, that side stops lifting and the door goes crooked in the opening, where it binds and scrapes. Detached garages are the norm in Scotch 80s and Rancho Circle, so a cable can fail days before anyone notices the door sitting at an angle. Stop using the opener and call us, because the bottom bracket is under spring tension and is not something to unbolt.

Garage door off track repair in Las Vegas

Doors leave the track after an impact, a broken cable, a flat roller, or a rail knocked out of line. Alley-facing garages in Huntridge and the streets around it take more of those knocks than a door set back behind a driveway ever does. Leave the door exactly where it is and stay off the opener, because forcing a door that is already off bends the track and the panels together. We reset it, then find whatever put it there.

Garage door opener repair in Las Vegas

An opener is built to guide a door the springs have already balanced, so straining, reversing and stopping part way are usually the door talking rather than the motor. Beverly Green shows this better than anywhere, because layer after layer of paint on a wooden door adds real weight, the springs fall out of specification, and the opener takes the blame. We check balance and hardware before condemning a motor. When the opener genuinely is at fault it is normally the gear, the board, the floor sensors or the remotes.

Garage door motor repair in Las Vegas

Inside the motor head a short list of parts fails in fairly predictable ways. A stripped plastic drive gear grinds while nothing moves, a tired capacitor gives a hum and no travel, and a failed logic board takes out the lights, the remotes or the travel limits. In 89101 and 89104 garages plenty of these heads predate 1993, and boards for them stopped being made a long time ago, which settles the repair question faster than anything else. We fix the head where parts still exist for that model, and say so plainly when they do not.

Garage motor repair in Las Vegas

A motor that has slowed down or sounds like it is working harder is usually reporting on the door rather than on itself. Most of the drag is mechanical: dry or flattened rollers, a rail out of line, springs that have lost tension. Heat makes all of it worse, and a closed-up garage in 89101 spends summer afternoons far above the temperature the factory grease was made for. Turning up the force setting is the one thing not to do, because it hides the fault and leaves the door more dangerous than it was.

Garage motor replacement in Las Vegas

Replacement wins when the parts are gone, when the board and the gear have both failed, or when the unit predates the 1993 federal rule requiring photo eyes near the floor. Those pre-1993 openers are still running in Huntridge and John S. Park garages, and they have no way to sense a child or a bumper under a closing door. Sizing is the other half, because a heavy wooden or insulated door needs more lifting power than a light steel one and an undersized unit dies early.

Garage door opener installation in Las Vegas

Belt drives run quietly, which is what you want when the garage is attached and a bedroom sits over it or beside it. Chain drives are louder and very hard to kill, and they make perfect sense in the detached garages the city core is full of. Headroom decides part of it too, and a shallow ceiling or a low header in an original 1940s bay can push you toward a wall mount unit that sits beside the torsion bar. We look at the actual space before recommending a drive type.

Smart garage door opener installation in Las Vegas

A smart opener puts the door on your phone: open it for a delivery, close it from work, and get an alert when it has been sitting open for an hour. That is worth more than usual on an alley-facing garage in the 89104 blocks, where you cannot see the door from a kitchen window. If your current unit is fairly new, an add-on controller may be all you need, and we will tell you which camp yours is in. On a pre-1993 opener with no photo eyes at floor level the answer is a new opener, not phone control bolted onto an unsafe one.

Garage door maintenance in Las Vegas

Summer here works on a door in ways that are easy to miss. Heat thins the grease and bakes the rubber bottom seal until it stiffens and stops sealing, while blown dust settles into tracks and rollers and turns into a grinding paste. The alleys behind Huntridge and Beverly Green put far more of that dust on a door than a driveway ever will. Twice a year, clearing the tracks and looking hard at the bottom seal keeps small things from turning into the midnight call.

Garage door tune up in Las Vegas

Balance comes first: are the springs, and not the motor, holding the weight of the door? Then alignment, with the track plumb, the rollers seated and the hardware tight. Then the safety reverse, meaning the photo eyes at floor level and the reversal when the door meets something on the way down. On a 1930s or 1940s door in the city's oldest historic district, that last check is very often the one that finds the problem.

Garage door replacement in Las Vegas

Repair is the right answer right up to the point where the door itself is the fault. Rusted-through bottom panels, water damage, cracked stiles or a door bent out of square will not hold an adjustment however good the hardware is. Age decides nothing on its own, and a well-built 1950s door kept in balance can outlast a neglected modern one, which is why 89101 and 89104 still have plenty of them working. We will tell you plainly which of the two you have.

New garage door installation in Las Vegas

Measuring comes first, and in the city core it is not a formality. Original single-car openings from the 1940s are narrower than anything sold as a standard size today, so a made-to-size order is normal here rather than unusual. Styles run from flat steel to carriage house to insulated sectionals, and on a historic street the look is often as large a decision as the specification. Install day is usually one visit: old door and hardware out, new track and springs set, door hung, opener connected, balance and safety checked before we leave.

Garage door supplier in Las Vegas

We supply as well as fit, which matters when the part you need is not on anyone's shelf. That covers full doors in non-standard sizes, single panels where only the bottom one took the damage, and hardware for older systems the big-box stores dropped years ago. One-piece doors and pre-1970 track are still in service across the historic ring, from Rancho Circle to West Las Vegas, and we service all makes and models. Financing is available when the order is a large one.

Commercial garage door repair in Las Vegas

Downtown and the Arts District run small roll-up and sectional doors on shops, yards and light industrial units, and those doors move all day. They reach their rated cycle count years earlier than any house door, so what looks like early failure is really arithmetic catching up. A door stuck shut closes the business behind it, which is why emergency service runs 24/7. Springs, rollers and bent bottom bars are the calls that come in most.

Commercial garage door installation in Las Vegas

Specifying a commercial door starts with the traffic it will see, not with the opening. A door that cycles a dozen times a day and one that cycles a hundred need different springs, different track and a different operator. Then the building has its say: headroom, opening width, whether a truck has to clear it, whether a fire rating applies. Inside the city limits a job needing a permit goes through the City of Las Vegas, while the same job in Paradise or Winchester goes through Clark County, and that is worth settling before an order is placed.

More on commercial garage door installation

Commercial garage door openers in Las Vegas

A home opener is designed around a handful of cycles a day and nothing more. Put one on an Arts District shop door that runs forty times a day and the motor overheats, the gear wears and the unit is finished inside a year or two. Commercial operators are rated for continuous duty, with tougher motors and real thermal protection built in. The whole difference is duty cycle, and buying a bigger home unit does not fix it.

Commercial garage door operators in Las Vegas

Operators come in a few mounting styles: trolley on a rail, jackshaft beside the torsion bar, hoist for heavy rolling doors. Which one fits comes down to headroom and side room, and in the older 89101 buildings downtown both are usually tight. Around the operator sit the controls: three-button stations, key switches, timers, loop detectors, photo eyes and a safety edge along the bottom bar. Getting the controls right is what keeps a busy door both quick and safe.

Roll up door repair in Las Vegas

A roll up door has no panels folding back overhead, because the curtain coils onto a barrel above the opening. That is exactly why they suit the shallow, shared-wall buildings around the Arts District, where there is no ceiling to give away. Jams usually trace to a bottom bar bent by a bumper or a forklift, slats knocked out of line, or side guides packed with grit. Once the curtain is binding in the guides, running it again only bends more slats.

Rolling steel door repair in Las Vegas

On a rolling steel door the slats are the wear item, and because they interlock, one crushed slat drags on its neighbors until the whole curtain rides badly. The barrel above the opening holds the counterbalance spring, which is rated in cycles like any torsion spring and is just as dangerous to touch. On the yards and light industrial units around 89101 the guides also fill with wind-blown grit, which wears the slat edges faster than the door's own movement does. Where the curtain is still sound we replace slats, re-tension the barrel and straighten guides instead of swapping the lot.

RV garage door repair in Las Vegas

A tall door is heavier and catches far more wind, and both show up in how it fails. There is more cable on each drum so cables come off more readily, the extra weight is harder on the springs, and a tall panel can flex enough in a gust to pull a roller out of the track. An alley-facing bay behind Huntridge gets less shelter than almost any door in the city, so the top section is where we look first. The parts are the same family as a standard door, only sized up.

RV garage door installation in Las Vegas

Height is only half the problem, because you also need headroom above the opening for the torsion bar and horizontal track, side room for the vertical track, and back room for the door to sit once it is up. Garages in John S. Park rarely have any of that, since many were detached, added after the house, and sized for a car of the 1930s and 1940s. Nothing gets ordered until we have measured the opening, the ceiling and the room behind it.

RV garage door install in Las Vegas

Turning a standard bay into an RV bay means changing the building, not just the door. The header has to be raised and re-supported, the opening reframed, and the track and springs specified for the new size. Inside the city limits that is permit work through the City of Las Vegas, while the same conversion a few streets away in Winchester or Enterprise goes through Clark County instead. We handle the door side and tell you plainly what the structural side involves.

RV garage door replacement in Las Vegas

Swapping a large door is mostly a weight calculation, because insulated steel sections weigh more than single-skin ones and every pound changes the spring sizing, the drums and the bearing plates. Wind load is the other half, since a wide, tall door is a sail, and the bracing struts across the back of the sections are what stop it flexing. Inside the city limits a tall door is nearly always a later addition rather than an original, because the 1940s core was built around single car openings, so the framing around it deserves a look at the same time.

RV garage door openers in Las Vegas

An oversized door needs more pulling power and more travel than a standard opener has. Rail length is the part people forget, since a standard rail simply stops short of a tall door's fully open position. In an older Huntridge or Beverly Green garage the ceiling is often too low for a rail anyway, which is where a jackshaft unit beside the torsion bar earns its place. We size the opener to the door's real weight and height rather than to the bay around it.

Common questions

How do I know if a garage door spring has broken?

The usual sign is a bang loud enough to hear indoors, followed by a door that will barely move. Detached garages are common on the 89101 and 89104 streets, so the noise can pass unnoticed and the heavy door is the first clue. Look at the bar above the opening, because a broken torsion spring leaves a visible gap in the coil. Leave the door closed and have someone look at it.

Can I replace a garage door spring on my own?

No, and it is the one repair we actively tell people to stay away from. A torsion spring stores enough energy to cause a serious injury, and it has to be let down under control with proper winding bars first. The extension springs common in Huntridge are no safer, especially where the containment cable is missing. Our technicians carry the bars and the correctly sized springs, and it is routine work for them.

Why does one side of my garage door lift while the other stays down?

Nearly every time, the answer is a cable. When a cable frays, snaps or jumps its drum, that side stops carrying the door and it sits crooked in the opening, which is easy to miss on a detached garage in 89104. Stop using the opener, because a crooked door binds and can come off the track completely. Do not unbolt the bottom bracket either, since it sits under spring tension.

Why does my opener run without the door moving?

Most often it is a stripped drive gear inside the motor head, or a trolley sitting disconnected from the door arm. A grinding noise while the motor turns points at the gear, while a trolley running up and down on its own points at the emergency release having been pulled. On the pre-1993 units still working in Huntridge and Beverly Green garages, parts for the head are frequently no longer made. A technician can tell which it is in a few minutes on site.

Should I push a garage door back onto its track myself?

Please do not try it. A door comes off the track because a cable, a roller or the rail itself failed, so forcing it back bends panels and track without touching the cause. Keep people and cars out of the opening until someone has looked at it. We reset it and find the cause on the same visit, and alley-facing garages behind Huntridge see this more than most.

How often should a garage door in the city core be tuned up?

Once a year suits most doors, and twice is sensible if the garage faces an alley or the door runs several times a day. Summer heat thins the grease and stiffens the rubber bottom seal, while blown dust builds up in tracks and rollers until they grind. An annual tune up covers balance, alignment, hardware and the safety reverse check, and the inspection itself is free. On a 1940s door in Huntridge it is also the visit where a missing containment cable gets spotted.

Is it worth fixing an old garage door downtown, or replacing it?

It depends on the door rather than on its age. A well-built 1950s door kept in balance can outlast a neglected modern one, and 89101 and 89104 still have plenty of them in daily use. Replacement makes sense once panels are rusted through, water damaged or bent out of square, because a door out of square will not hold an adjustment. One thing to plan for in Huntridge is that the original openings are narrower than today's standard sizes, so a new door is often made to size.

Do you work on commercial garage doors in the Arts District?

Yes, regularly. Downtown and the Arts District have roll-up and sectional doors on shops, yards and light industrial units, and they cycle far more often in a day than any house door does. They hit their rated cycle count years sooner as a result, so springs, rollers and bent bottom bars are the common calls. Emergency service runs 24/7, because a door stuck shut closes the business behind it.

What does it cost to get a technician out to look at the door?

There is a $0 trip fee and the inspection is free, so having a technician come and look is not the part that costs you. You get upfront pricing on the repair itself before any work starts, and the decision stays yours. Financing is available if the job turns out to be a large one. Our office is on South Maryland Parkway in 89101 and the work is mobile, so the visit happens at your address.

Do you repair roll up and rolling steel doors?

Yes, we handle both. On a rolling steel door the curtain coils onto a barrel above the opening, and the usual faults are bent slats, a bottom bar hit by a vehicle, guides packed with grit, or a counterbalance spring at the end of its cycles. Where the curtain is still sound we replace individual slats and straighten guides rather than swapping the whole thing. Most of these calls come from the Arts District and the small industrial units around downtown, and we service all makes and models.

Can you fit a garage door tall enough for an RV inside the city limits?

Yes, where the building allows it. A tall door needs headroom above the opening for the torsion bar, side room for the vertical track, and back room for the door while it is open. The 1940s core was built around single car openings, so an RV bay there usually means reframing and raising the header, which is permit work through the City of Las Vegas rather than Clark County. We measure first and tell you what is genuinely possible.

Can I get an opener I control from my phone?

Yes, and it is one of the easier upgrades. A smart opener lets you open and close the door from your phone, tells you when it has been left open, and some models add a camera in the motor head. That is genuinely useful on an alley-facing garage in 89101 that you cannot see from the house. If the unit is a pre-1993 opener with no photo eyes at floor level, the right move is a new opener rather than phone control added onto an unsafe one.

Is the Las Vegas Strip in the City of Las Vegas?

No. The resort corridor sits in the unincorporated townships of Paradise and Winchester, which are governed by Clark County rather than the city. So are Enterprise, Spring Valley and most of the southwest valley. The City of Las Vegas runs north and west of downtown. We cover all of it either way, but which side of the line an address falls on decides who issues a permit when one is needed.

How old are garage doors in downtown Las Vegas?

Older than anywhere else in the valley. Huntridge was built between 1941 and 1944 and continued through the 1970s, and John S. Park, the oldest historic district in the city, holds homes from the 1930s and 1940s. Where the original door is still fitted, that is its age. In practice most have been replaced at least once, but the opening size, the framing and often the spring system are still the originals.

My garage door suddenly feels much heavier. Is that the opener?

Usually not. An opener guides a door that the springs have already balanced, so a door that feels heavy is nearly always a spring or balance problem. On older wooden doors there is a specific cause worth knowing about: decades of repainting add real weight, and a door heavy enough to fall outside the rated range of its springs will drag, stall or drop. Adding opener force to compensate hides the fault and wears the unit out faster.

There are no sensors near the floor of my garage. Does that matter?

It means the opener predates the 1993 federal requirement for external entrapment protection, so it has no way to detect something under the door and will keep closing regardless. Plenty of pre-1993 units are still running in the city core. They can be replaced with a current opener that has photo eyes on both sides of the opening.

Do you work on detached and alley-facing garages?

Yes, and they are common in the historic neighborhoods. Alley-facing doors take more impacts and more wind-driven dust than a door set back behind a driveway, and detached garages often have had hardware fitted piecemeal by previous owners. Both are ordinary work for us. Call (725) 485-3587 and we will confirm a window.

Which Las Vegas neighborhoods and ZIP codes do you cover?

All of Las Vegas, including Huntridge, John S. Park, Beverly Green, Downtown and the Arts District and Historic Las Vegas. The ZIP codes we cover here are 89101, 89102, 89104, 89106, 89107 and 89108. If your street is not named here, call (725) 485-3587: the work is mobile across the Las Vegas Valley.
