Question 1

How much does a new garage door cost?

Accepted Answer

The cost of a new garage door varies depending on the size, material, style, and features. Basic single-car garage doors start around $600-$900, while premium insulated double-car doors can range from $1,500-$4,000+. We offer free in-home estimates to provide accurate pricing for your specific needs.

Question 2

How long does garage door installation take?

Accepted Answer

Most garage door installations can be completed in 4-6 hours. This includes removing your old door, installing the new door and hardware, setting up the opener, and testing everything. More complex installations with custom doors may take longer.

Question 3

How often should I have my garage door serviced?

Accepted Answer

We recommend professional maintenance at least once a year. Regular maintenance includes lubricating moving parts, checking spring tension, testing safety features, tightening hardware, and inspecting cables and rollers. This prevents costly repairs and extends the life of your door.

Question 4

What are signs my garage door springs need replacement?

Accepted Answer

Warning signs include: the door feels heavier than usual, the door opens unevenly or crooked, visible gaps in the springs, loud squeaking or grinding noises, and the door won't stay open. Springs typically last 10,000 cycles (about 7-10 years). Never attempt to replace springs yourself – they're under extreme tension.

Question 5

Do you offer emergency garage door repair?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We provide 24/7 emergency garage door repair services. Whether your door is stuck, off-track, or you have a broken spring, our technicians are available around the clock. Call (198) 052-89729 for immediate assistance.

Question 6

What brands of garage doors do you install?

Accepted Answer

We install and service all major garage door brands including Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton, CHI, and more. For openers, we work with Chamberlain, LiftMaster, Genie, and other leading manufacturers. We'll help you choose the best option for your needs and budget.

Question 7

Can I replace just one panel of my garage door?

Accepted Answer

In many cases, yes. If only one panel is damaged and your door is relatively new, panel replacement can be a cost-effective solution. However, if your door is older or has multiple damaged panels, replacing the entire door may be more economical in the long run.

Question 8

Why is my garage door making loud noises?

Accepted Answer

Common causes of noisy garage doors include: worn rollers, loose hardware, lack of lubrication, misaligned tracks, or worn springs. Some noises are normal, but new or unusual sounds should be inspected. Our technicians can diagnose the issue and recommend the best solution.

Question 9

Are you licensed and insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Morven Garage Doors is fully licensed, bonded, and insured. Our technicians are background-checked and certified by major manufacturers. This protects you and ensures quality workmanship on every job.

Question 10

Do you offer warranties on your work?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. All our installations come with manufacturer warranties on parts and materials. We also provide our own labor warranty. Specific warranty terms vary by product, so ask your technician for details during your consultation.

Question 11

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

We serve Morven, NC and the surrounding communities including Monroe, Indian Trail, Matthews, Mint Hill, Stallings, Weddington, Waxhaw, Marvin, Wesley Chapel, and Unionville. If you're outside these areas, give us a call – we may still be able to help!

Question 12

How do I know if my garage door needs to be replaced vs repaired?

Accepted Answer

Consider replacement if: your door is more than 15-20 years old, repairs would cost more than 50% of a new door, you're experiencing frequent breakdowns, or your door lacks modern safety features. Our technicians provide honest assessments and will never recommend replacement if repair makes more sense.
