Walker County has roughly 30,900 housing units, 76.1 percent owner-occupied, and nearly half were built before 1980. That stock means worn springs, rusted cables and openers past their service life. From Tuscaloosa we come up State Route 69 to Jasper. Tell us the town and what the door is doing.
Walker County
Coal-country garages and lake-road garages
Walker County grew around coal, and many homes in the older towns date from the 1970s or earlier. Those garages often hold a single-car door with original track brackets, steel rollers worn flat on one side and a spring that has been carrying the door for decades. When we replace a spring on a door like that, we check whether the cables and bottom brackets can take the fresh tension, because a new spring on rotten hardware just moves the failure somewhere else.
North of Jasper, homes around Lewis Smith Lake deal with different wear. Damp air off the water works on cable strands, drum set screws and spring coils, and rust can bind a spring to the shaft. On lake homes we look closely at lift cables and lubricate what the moisture reaches first.

From Cordova to Smith Lake: what shapes doors in Walker County
Jasper is the Walker County seat, and the towns of Carbon Hill, Cordova, Dora and Sumiton are all reached from exits on I-22. Coal mining is still described as the core of the county economy. Cordova took two tornadoes on April 27, 2011, and the evening EF4 cut a half-mile swath that destroyed most of its historic downtown. In the north, Lewis Smith Lake covers about 21,000 acres behind a dam on the Sipsey Fork. We reach Jasper on State Route 69 from Tuscaloosa and Northport.
Living in the county seat itself? Our Jasper page has more on the city. Out in the county, the median home was built in 1983, and 27.1 percent of homes are mobile homes, so detached garages and metal shop doors are a regular part of our work here.

Common questions
Questions from Walker County homeowners
Moist lake air corrodes the cable strands and drums. We replace rusted cables and check the springs and bearings that the same moisture reaches.
We cover the I-22 towns too, including Sumiton, Dora, Cordova and Carbon Hill. Give us the town and the nearest exit when you call.
It depends on the panels. Sound panels with worn springs and rollers are worth repairing. Our repair or replace guide covers how to decide.
Sometimes. A bent track or one creased panel can often be fixed. If several sections buckled, replacing the door is usually safer and cheaper.
