Tune-Up & Inspection Done Properly in Van Nuys
A yearly tune-up is a small bill that prevents a large one: lubrication, a balance check and a safety-reverse test on a door that gets used every single day. Expect single-car detached and attached garages, narrow driveways, alleys behind many blocks, some two-car openings on the wider streets, and a good number of garages converted for storage or as ADUs.

Tune-Up & Inspection in Van Nuys: Common Questions
How often should a garage door be serviced in Van Nuys?
Once a year is right for a door that is used every day, and it is the cheapest visit we make. Springs, cables, rollers and the safety reverse all get checked before anything fails.
What's included in a tune-up?
A standard tune-up covers lubrication, roller and hinge inspection, balance and travel limits, the force setting, the safety reverse test and a written note of anything that will need parts next.
Will you try to sell me a new door at a tune-up?
No. A tune-up is a tune-up. If we spot something that will fail, you get told the price and the choice — nothing is fitted without your say-so.
How much does a tune-up cost in Van Nuys?
Most single-car repairs are modest: rollers, a cable, a hinge set or a spring pair. The technician gives you the number before starting, and it does not change afterwards.
