The Best Garage Door Service in Essex Fells
Essex Fells is a 1.4-square-mile borough planned as a residential community and incorporated in 1902, with custom-built colonials and Tudors, deep setbacks, no apartments or office buildings, and a tree canopy the borough protects by permit.

Garage Doors in Essex Fells
Most Essex Fells homes were custom built, many of them generations ago, and some properties still have carriage houses behind the main house. That usually means wider, heavier doors in wood or wood-look carriage styles, and openings that don’t always match stock sizes. We size the springs and opener to the actual weight of the door, because undersized springs are the most common reason a heavy custom door fails early.
The big trees are part of what makes Essex Fells what it is, but every fall the leaves and twigs end up in tracks, rollers, weather seals and the photo-eye sensors. And with Essex Fells Pond usually frozen for skating from December into March, we also see bottom seals freeze to the driveway and openers strain to break them loose. A fall tune-up takes care of both. Our Cedar Grove office on Pompton Avenue is just a few miles away.

Frequently Asked Questions — Essex Fells, NJ Garage Door Service
Do you service carriage houses and detached garages in Essex Fells?
Yes. We repair and replace doors on carriage houses, detached garages and attached garages, including heavier custom and wood-look carriage doors.
Do the trees in Essex Fells affect my garage door?
They can. Leaves, twigs and sap collect in the tracks and on the photo-eye sensors, which can make the door reverse or run rough. Cleaning the tracks and sensors in the fall prevents most of it.
