AfterGarage Door Before & After in Olympia, WA
We’ve always believed the best proof of our work isn’t what we say, it’s what the door looks like when we leave. Every project in this gallery carries a documented photo record, a flat written price agreed before we started, and the same Clause 1 standard we’ve held since 2015. Scroll through, see the difference, and know exactly what to expect when we pull up to your driveway in Olympia.
Recent Transformations
Torsion Spring Failure on a 16-Foot Clopay in the South Capitol Neighborhood
The homeowner called at 6:47 a.m. after the door slammed shut when the torsion spring snapped during the morning commute. We found a 16-foot Clopay with a single broken torsion spring that had been installed at the wrong wire diameter for the door weight, probably years ago by a previous company. Marcus Deller measured the door at 185 pounds, spec’d the correct 0.25-inch by 2-inch by 32-inch spring, and had the new pair wound and balanced before the coffee cooled. The photo record shows the clean break at the coil and the final balance test with the door holding at mid-travel.
Water-Damaged Wood Door Replacement in the Wildwood Neighborhood
Three winters of Olympia’s driving rain had destroyed the bottom two panels of this original 1980s wood door, and the hinge hardware was rusted through at the #2 and #3 sections. We quoted a flat price for an Amarr Stratford 3000 with a stained wood-grain finish that matched the home’s trim, including new 13-gauge hinges and a LiftMaster 87504-267 smart opener with battery backup. The documented record shows the corroded original hinges, the new door hung plumb in a rebuilt jamb, and the final photo of the owner testing the myQ app connection.
Off-Track Door in Tumwater Hill After a Backing Incident
The customer backed into the door at low speed, enough to pop two rollers out of the left vertical track and bend the top of the #4 section. We’ve done this repair in the rain at 7 a.m. more than once, and this one was no different. Marcus Deller found the horizontal track had also shifted 3/8 inch from the jamb bracket. We reset the track spacing to factory spec, replaced all ten rollers with sealed nylon units, and reinforced the creased section with a strut rather than selling a full panel replacement the door didn’t need. The photo record shows the bent track before, the laser-aligned track after, and the door passing the 2×4 safety reverse test.
Opener Logic Board Failure on a Genie ChainLift in Eastside Olympia
The opener had been clicking and humming without moving the trolley carriage for two weeks before it quit entirely. We diagnosed a failed logic board, common after the voltage spikes Olympia sees during winter windstorms. Rather than pushing a full opener replacement, we quoted a flat price for the OEM Genie 38874R.S board, a trolley carriage inspection, and a surge protector at the outlet. The photo record includes the scorched trace on the old board, the new board’s serial number for warranty, and the final test showing the limit switch properly set so the door seals without reversing on the weatherstrip.
Full Door and Opener Installation on a New Build near Priest Point Park
The builder had left a 9-by-7 rough opening with standard 2×6 framing and no hardware prep. We measured on Tuesday, quoted a flat written price by Wednesday, and installed the following Monday once the Clopay Canyon Ridge arrived from the regional distributor in Tacoma. The 5-layer insulated construction matters in Olympia’s marine climate, where an uninsulated door sweats and rusts the bottom fixtures. We paired it with a LiftMaster 8500W jackshaft opener to preserve ceiling height for a future storage lift. The photo record shows the plumb jamb installation, the R-18 insulation value tag, the jackshaft mounted with manual release tested, and the homeowner’s phone connected to the myQ app.
Emergency Cable Replacement on a Wayne Dalton TorqueMaster in Indian Creek
The TorqueMaster spring system hides the spring inside the tube above the door, which means cable failure can look catastrophic even when the spring is fine. This door had dropped hard on the right side after the cable frayed through at the bottom fixture, a pattern we see when the original cables weren’t properly tension-relieved at installation. Marcus Deller inspected the TorqueMaster tube for spring fatigue, found it within spec, and quoted only the cables and a full drum service rather than the spring replacement another company had suggested. The photo record shows the frayed cable end, the internal spring torque reading, and the final level check with a 4-foot level across the bottom section.
