Garage door maintenance in Miami, on autopilot

Two plans, both at published prices. Annual Care is one professional tune-up visit a year for $239 with 5% off qualifying repairs. Hurricane Care is two visits a year, one before hurricane season and one after, for $479 with 7.5% off qualifying repairs, which works out to about $40 a month. An additional residential door at the same property is $59. Replacement parts are always quoted in writing before any work.

The same 25 point tune-up we sell on its own for $99: spring tension and door balance, rollers and hinges, cables and tracks, opener force and travel limits, photo eye alignment, lubrication of the moving parts and a look at the weatherseal. If we find a part that is wearing out, you get a written price before anything is replaced.

If you want one check and nothing else, book the $99 tune-up. A plan is for people who would rather not think about it: the visit gets scheduled for you, you are ahead of non-members when something breaks, and qualifying repairs come off 5% or 7.5%. Hurricane Care also puts a technician on your door right before and right after hurricane season, which is when a door in Miami earns its keep.

Salt air, humidity and daily use work on springs, rollers and openers all year. A visit before hurricane season confirms the door and its hurricane hardware operate the way the approval expects, and a visit after the season catches the wear the storms left behind.

Once a year for a normal household door, more often for high-cycle or commercial doors. Florida's salt air and humidity are hard on cables, rollers and hardware, so a yearly service matters more here than in a dry climate.

Annual PM is $349 a year for the first commercial door at a site, and $225 a year for each additional door serviced on the same visit. Semiannual PM, two visits a year, is $649 for the first door and $425 for each additional door on the same site. Parts and repairs are quoted separately and never done without your approval. We still walk the site before the first visit, because that is what sets the door count, the access hours and anything the doors need beyond maintenance.

Pick a plan on this page and pay on Stripe's own hosted checkout page, or call (786) 315-9238 and we will set it up with you. Your card details go to Stripe and never touch this website. Stripe emails the receipt, and we call you to book the first visit.

Yes. Stripe renews the plan once a year until you cancel, and emails you a receipt each time.

More than most people expect, and it is written into the warranty. AA Impact ties its limited warranty to regular care: moving hardware lubricated at least twice a year with a silicone spray, and the aluminum, glass and weatherstripping washed with mild soap and water. Skip that care, or fail to show proof of it when asked, and the coverage can be void. Eden Coast likewise voids its warranty if its finish care recommendations are not followed. Keep receipts and dates. A plan visit gives you both.

Every three months. AA Impact asks for cleaning at least every three months near a coastline or in a high salt area, and at least every six months in a standard environment. If your door is within a couple of miles of the bay, a canal or the ocean, work to the three month interval.

On an Eden Coast door, no. Eden Coast says to clean with normal hose pressure and advises against pressure washing entirely. On a new door it wants plain line pressure water only for the first 90 days, while the clear coat cures. After that, an occasional rinse, paying attention to the ledges where dirt collects.

Usually. Most noise comes from dry or worn rollers, loose hardware and hinges that have never been lubricated, and a tune-up handles all three.

No, and this is the part people order wrong most often. The bottom seal has to match the retainer on the underside of the door, and there are three common profiles: a T end that slides into a single or double channel, a bulb or U shape that sits in an aluminum retainer, and a bead end. They do not interchange, so measure the opening in the retainer and the width of the door before buying anything. Replace the bottom seal when it stops sealing, because that gap is what lets driven rain, heat and wildlife in. And on an impact rated door the bottom retainer and seal are part of what the product approval covers, so fit what the approval specifies rather than a generic strip.
