Garage Door Repair
A garage door can fail in a dozen different ways: a worn roller, a bent track, a broken spring, a loose cable, or an opener that no longer responds. AllTrades Garage Doors Co. helps Chicago homeowners understand what is wrong and choose the right repair or replacement path.
The symptom is not always the cause. A door that will not close may have an alignment issue, a damaged safety sensor, or a component under tension. We start with the door’s movement and hardware so the next step is based on the actual condition of the system.
- Door inspection and movement check
- Roller, hinge, cable, track, and spring assessment
- Opener and safety-sensor troubleshooting
- Clear repair or replacement recommendations

Garage Door Installation
A new garage door changes curb appeal, daily access, and the way your garage works. AllTrades Garage Doors Co. provides a straightforward installation conversation for Chicago properties, from choosing a suitable style to confirming the opening and operating hardware.
Replacing a door is more than picking a color. The size of the opening, headroom, track layout, opener compatibility, insulation needs, and existing framing all affect the result. Good planning keeps the installation from becoming a chain of surprises.
- Opening and existing-hardware review
- Door style and material discussion
- Track and spring-system planning
- Opener compatibility and operating setup

Garage Door Spring Repair
Springs do the heavy lifting in a garage door system. When one breaks or loses tension, the door may become very heavy, refuse to move, or sit unevenly. AllTrades Garage Doors Co. helps Chicago homeowners identify spring-related problems and choose a safe next step.
A spring is a high-tension component, so it is not a good place for trial-and-error repairs. The visible break may also be connected to worn cables, rollers, bearings, or an opener that has been carrying too much load.
- Torsion and extension spring inspection
- Door balance and lift assessment
- Cable, drum, bearing, and bracket check
- Spring-system repair recommendations

Garage Door Opener Repair
An opener problem can look like a door problem. The motor may run while the door stays still, the remote may stop communicating, or the safety sensors may cause the door to reverse. AllTrades Garage Doors Co. separates the electrical and mechanical symptoms before recommending repair or replacement.
Repeatedly pressing the remote or adjusting the force settings can hide the real issue. Sensor alignment, travel limits, drive components, wiring, and the door’s balance all influence how an opener behaves.
- Remote and wall-control testing
- Safety-sensor and wiring review
- Drive, rail, and travel-limit assessment
- Repair versus replacement guidance

Garage Door Cable Repair
A loose or broken cable can make a door hang at an angle, bind in the tracks, or stop halfway through its travel. AllTrades Garage Doors Co. helps Chicago homeowners assess the cable, drum, spring, and track relationship before the system is used again.
Cables work as part of a counterbalance system. Replacing a visible cable without checking the spring tension, drums, brackets, and door alignment can leave the underlying cause untouched.
- Cable and drum inspection
- Spring and counterbalance review
- Track alignment and roller check
- Safe repair recommendations

Garage Door Track Repair
Tracks guide the door through every open and close cycle. A bent section, loose bracket, damaged roller, or shifting frame can create scraping sounds and uneven movement. AllTrades Garage Doors Co. checks the track system as part of the whole door instead of forcing adjustments by eye.
A track is not meant to carry the door’s weight by itself. If the door is rubbing or binding, the cause may include rollers, cables, springs, hinges, framing, or impact damage.
- Track and bracket inspection
- Roller and hinge condition check
- Door alignment and travel review
- Adjustment or replacement recommendations

Garage Door Maintenance
Most garage doors move hundreds of times each year. A maintenance visit is a chance to identify loose hardware, worn rollers, cable wear, poor balance, noisy movement, and safety issues before a small change becomes a door that will not open.
Maintenance is not just adding lubricant. The door, springs, cables, rollers, hinges, tracks, opener, and safety features work together. A useful check looks for changes in movement and load, not only visible dirt.
- Door balance and movement check
- Hardware, rollers, hinges, and cables review
- Opener and safety-reversal test
- Care guidance for the next service interval

Emergency Garage Door Repair
A garage door that fails suddenly can block a vehicle, leave a property unsecured, or create a safety concern. AllTrades Garage Doors Co. provides a direct way to describe what happened and determine the safest next step for Chicago service.
The first priority is stability. Do not force a door with a broken spring, hanging cable, bent track, or visible impact damage. A useful call includes the door position, unusual sounds, and whether anyone or anything is in its path.
- Stuck-open and stuck-closed door guidance
- Broken spring and cable assessment
- Impact and track-damage review
- Repair or securement recommendations
