Garage door repair, installation and service in Key West. Historic frame houses, many with no garage at all, and newer development in New Town. If the property is under HARC jurisdiction the door is an exterior alteration and needs a Certificate of Appropriateness. The wind rating is worked out per address rather than read off a county figure, so we check yours before quoting.
We plan Key West as a trip rather than a same-day call and we say so honestly when we book. Corrosion here goes beyond what most of Florida ever sees, so the truck carries stainless cables, rollers and brackets for every door we expect to open.
In the historic district the Historic Architectural Review Commission has a say in what the street sees, and a door is an exterior alteration needing a Certificate of Appropriateness. We establish what is allowed before anyone falls in love with a catalogue.

Plenty of Old Town houses have no garage. The call is more often a rolling shutter, a gate operator or a commercial roll-up on a business off Duval. Tell us what the opening actually is and we will tell you straight whether we are the right people for it.
The rating a door needs in Key West is engineered for the opening and its exposure rather than read off a county figure. We confirm yours before quoting.
Twelve months on the labour, and the manufacturer cover on the door and the opener sits over the top of it. Under HARC jurisdiction a garage door counts as an exterior alteration, so the historic certificate and the building permit go in as one application and we carry both.
