Garage door repair in Fayette, close to our Berry service office

  • Doors, springs and openers
Straight answer

Fayette sits 17 miles west of Berry on SR 18, the road our service office is on, so it is one of the shortest drives we make. Most Fayette calls are repairs on older doors: a broken extension spring, a cable off its pulley or an opener that stopped answering the remote. We find the failed part and fix it on the visit.

Fayette garages

A 200-year-old county seat with mixed-age garages

Fayette incorporated in 1821 as La Fayette and took its short name in 1898, so it is an old town by Alabama standards. Houses near downtown have single-car garages and detached buildings, while newer homes on the edges of town have attached two-car garages. Older doors here commonly run on extension springs stretched along the horizontal tracks, and when one breaks the door drops hard on that side. We replace springs in pairs, add the safety cable that keeps a broken spring from flying, or talk through converting the door to torsion springs.

Fayette County is mostly owner-occupied, and many rural properties around town have a shop or pole barn with its own overhead door. Those doors are often wider or taller than a house door and see heavy use. Tell us the size when you call, since a big shop door can need heavier springs than a standard residential one. For homes without power for a while after storms, a new opener with battery backup keeps the door working.

Fayette facts

Fayette sits on the same road as our Berry office

Fayette is the Fayette County seat, incorporated in 1821, and it had 4,285 residents and 2,095 housing units in 2020. Berry, where our service office is, lies on State Route 18 about 17 miles east of Fayette. US 43 also runs north from Northport through Bankston and Stough into downtown Fayette, so the trip up from Northport is a straight run on one highway. Across Fayette County, 78.4 percent of homes are owner-occupied and about half of all housing units were built before 1980, which explains the number of aging springs and openers we see in town.
