Yes, GMR has extensive experience repairing specialty and custom garage door panels including carriage house designs, full-view aluminum/glass panels, custom wood doors, high-end designer series (like Clopay’s Canyon Ridge or Amarr’s Vista), hurricane-rated impact-resistant panels, and oversized commercial panels. Our technicians can match decorative hardware, window inserts, and specialized finishes.

GMR technicians are trained to work with all major operating systems including traditional extension and torsion spring systems, LiftMaster, Genie, Chamberlain, and Marantec openers, jackshaft systems, high-lift and vertical-lift configurations, and commercial operators from manufacturers like Linear, Overhead Door, and DoorKing. We ensure panels align properly with your specific operating system.

GMR uses professional-grade equipment including specialized panel lifts, spring winding bars, proper-gauge cable replacements, manufacturer-specific hardware kits, digital level tools, torque-controlled impact drivers, and custom panel alignment jigs. For commercial installations, we utilize heavy-duty rigging equipment, scissor lifts, and industrial-grade fastening systems to ensure safety and precision.

Before calling for panel repair, homeowners should: inspect for loose hardware and tighten if possible, clean tracks of debris that might cause further damage, lubricate moving parts except the damaged panel area, take clear photos of the damage from multiple angles, disconnect the opener if the door is binding, and secure any dangling parts with tape to prevent further damage. Never attempt to operate a severely damaged door as it can cause additional damage or injury.

After panel repair, homeowners should: visually inspect the door monthly, lubricate hinges, rollers, and springs with silicone-based lubricant every 3-6 months, tighten any loose hardware quarterly, clean panels with mild detergent and water (avoiding pressure washing), check weather stripping for damage, keep tracks clean, and test the door’s balance by disconnecting the opener and manually lifting to halfway position where it should remain steady.

Yes, GMR specializes in repairing insulated garage door panels including polyurethane-injected panels (highest R-value), polystyrene-insulated panels, and vinyl-backed insulation systems. We work with all major insulation ratings from R-6 to R-18 and can match the thermal properties of your existing door. For energy-efficient doors like Clopay’s Intellicore or Amarr’s polyurethane models, we source exact replacements to maintain energy performance.

GMR ensures color matching by: sourcing direct-from-manufacturer replacement panels when available, using manufacturer color codes and paint specifications, employing digital color matching technology for custom colors, recommending full-door repainting for older installations with significant fading, and maintaining relationships with specialized finishing companies for wood staining and custom finishes. We can match most factory colors including Clopay’s Ultra-Grain, Amarr’s True White, and specialty finishes from major manufacturers.

After panel repairs, GMR technicians perform comprehensive safety checks including: testing auto-reverse mechanisms on openers, verifying proper tension on springs, checking cable integrity and routing, confirming proper track alignment, testing manual operation and balance, inspecting all rollers and hinges for smooth operation, verifying safety eye sensor functionality, checking emergency release mechanisms, and ensuring all hardware is properly torqued to manufacturer specifications.
