Due to the Coronavirus/COVID-19 we are responding to the guidelines established by the state of MN, the CDC and Public Health Officers.

The nature of our service already provides for adequate social distancing, however, we are taking added precautions by requiring our staff to regularly practice proper hygiene between jobs and thoroughly disinfecting parts and equipment in your home we come in contact with. Service, repairs, and replacements of garage doors, electric openers, gates, gate openers, in addition to other access systems and their components are critical to ensure that necessary movement of people and vehicles in order to protect the health and safety of citizens, businesses, governmental units, and their property and facilities. Garage Door Services are considered an essential service and we will respond to your garage door repair and replacement needs professionally and as quickly as possible.
- Garage doors are often used to provide a means of exit and egress from our homes. Properly functioning doors can facilitate exit from homes for people who may need to seek medical attention or to respond to public service calls. They can also provide easy access for emergency personnel seeking to care for residents.
- Overhead doors, including rolling fire doors, can be a key element of buildings. Whether providing fire safety as part of fire wall assemblies or facilitating vehicle access to transport people or essential goods, these systems are an integral part of essential building operations.
- Gates and gate openers provide security and controlled access to buildings, parking garages, and properties. Their operation is important to provide access for first responders, security for building occupants, and controlled access for visitors.
