Frequently Asked Questions
What Should I Do If My Garage Door Won’t Open?
Finding your garage door refusing to open can be a stressful situation. Start by checking if the sensors at the base of your garage door are clear of debris, as obstructions can lead to sensor misalignment. Check the batteries of the control and the power outlet. If the problem persists, it may be due to a broken spring or issues with the opener itself. We recommend contacting us for a thorough inspection. Our technical team is equipped to diagnose the problem and provide a quick and effective solution, ensuring your garage door gets back to perfect working order.
How Often Should I Schedule Garage Door Maintenance?
Regular maintenance of your garage door can prevent many common issues, saving you the hassle of emergency repairs. We advise scheduling a professional maintenance service at least once a year. However, for garage doors with high usage, such as those in busy households or commercial settings, bi-annual maintenance might be necessary. Our team offers comprehensive maintenance plans tailored to your needs to keep your garage door in optimal condition year-round.
Can Garage Doors Be Customized to Match My Home’s Aesthetic?
Absolutely! We understand the importance of aligning your garage door to the overall design of your home. We offer a wide range of styles, materials, and colors to choose from, allowing you to personalize your garage door to match your architectural taste. Whether you're looking for a modern glass door or a traditional wooden look, our team can assist in selecting or designing a garage door that complements and enhances your home's exterior.

The communication was A+.
I have 3 garage doors and the spring broke on the middle door. I called at 7:20 a.m. on a Saturday morning and by 10:30 a.m. everything was perfectly repaired. Very reasonable pricing too. The communication was A+.
I first used ProLift about a year earlier when I received a $9 door inspection and tune-up flyer…that was just as described too. This is a great place to use if you need service.

PROLIFT IS NOW MY GO TO.
Reasonable price. I had a little mishap with my garage door and after trying to DIY it myself from 9pm to 7am, I had to call in experts. Even though their internet search said they were 24hrs, I had to leave a message. At 3am on a Wed morning. I had a flight to catch and had to call friends to get me out of my garage bind. Kyle, the owner of ProLift Garage Doors, called a few hours later and left a message offering to get someone out to check the house. Upon my return I knew I needed the garage door inspected, as I had to take all the panels off to get my car out a week prior. The reason I went with these guys is because 1. Kyle sent a personal note with options for service 2. He sent a pic of Ricky the technician when I decided to hire them 3. They didn't charge a service fee to inspect and offered a military/senior discount 4. Ricky INSPECTED the door for quality control and safety. Didn’t just try to get a sale 5. When he came, he was a one man efficiency machine and got the work done 6. He explained things to me as he went along and I appreciated that. 7. Very personable, friendly and professional. 8. Made sure the motor sat straight and the key fob and pads were programmed. Also double checked the safety sensors before leaving 9. Was organized and told me the garage space he needed before he came out to work 10. HE CLEANED UP AND DIDN'T LEAVE NAILS/SCREWS inside or outside the garage. I RECOMMEND RICKY TO ANYONE ANYTIME AND WHEN ASKED ABOUT A GOOD GARAGE SERVICE. PROLIFT IS NOW MY GO TO. (He also spoke well of his boss and his coworkers.) 5 out of 5 stars (despite not actually being 24hr service as promoted online) -Diana Hardy Client Oct 20th 2025
