Small lots, single-car doors and a lot of extension springs that were never fitted with safety cables. We fix that for the price of a service call.
The one thing to check today. A large share of older single-car doors in Naples Manor run on extension springs — the long springs stretched along the horizontal tracks. If there is no steel cable threaded through the middle of the spring, the door is missing its safety cable. When that spring breaks, it becomes a projectile. Fitting a pair costs very little and it is the single most worthwhile thing you can do to an old door here.
Garage door repair in Naples Manor is mostly small doors, modest budgets and honest choices. The subdivision off Tamiami Trail East went up as workforce housing and the lots are tight — most garages are single-car, many were carports first, and the door hardware is often whatever was cheapest at the time.
That shapes how we work here. We quote the repair, we quote the replacement only when the repair genuinely is not worth it, and we tell you plainly which one we would choose. Our prices are published on the pricing page so nobody has to wonder whether the number changed because of the address.
Torsion springs sit on a bar above the door. Extension springs run along the horizontal tracks on either side and stretch as the door closes. On a lot of older Manor doors they are extension springs, and on a lot of those there is no safety cable.
The safety cable is a length of aircraft cable threaded through the centre of the spring and anchored at both ends. It does nothing at all until the spring snaps, at which point it stops several pounds of steel under tension from travelling across the garage. If you can see daylight through the middle of your springs, you do not have one. We fit them on every extension-spring door we touch, and we will fit them on their own if that is all you want done.
The upside of a single-car 8×7 or 9×7 door is that everything on it is inexpensive. A set of extension springs, a pair of cables, a set of rollers and a bottom seal together cost less than one torsion spring on a big estate door. Most Manor jobs are a single visit with parts off the van.
The common ones are a frayed cable that has started to unravel where it sits in the drum, a bottom seal that has perished and is letting water and lizards in, and rollers that have been dry for fifteen years. None of those is a reason to buy a door.
There are doors here we will not try to save. If the bottom two feet have rusted through, if the sections have separated at the joints, or if the track has been bent badly enough that the door binds every cycle, you are buying a repair that will not hold.
Even then, a plain 9×7 steel door installed is at the bottom end of our installation range, and a new wind-rated door may be worth something on your insurance — the wind mitigation page explains how that credit works and, importantly, why one unprotected opening cancels it.
We will give you both numbers and tell you which one we would pick if it were our house.

We publish what we charge instead of working it out on your driveway, and the number does not change because of your address — Naples Manor pays exactly what Old Naples pays. Repairs start from Naples Manor09 for a full set of sealed rollers, from Naples Manor19 for a pair of cables and from Naples Manor69 for a torsion spring. A new steel garage door fitted to Florida code starts from Naples Manor,690.
There is no call-out fee and no night, weekend or holiday surcharge. If we come out at two in the morning because your door is stuck open, you pay for the work and nothing else. The complete list is on the pricing page.

Look at the horizontal tracks near the ceiling. If there is a long spring running alongside each track that stretches as the door closes, those are extension springs. A spring sitting on a steel bar above the door opening is a torsion spring.
It is a steel cable threaded through the centre of an extension spring and anchored at both ends. If that spring breaks, the cable stops it flying across the garage. Any extension-spring door should have them, and many older doors here do not. Fitting a pair is inexpensive.
Most Naples Manor jobs land between $150 and $350 — extension springs, cables, rollers or a bottom seal. Full figures are on our pricing page and they do not change by address.
Yes. Photo-eye safety reversal has been required on residential openers since 1993, so an opener without them is at least thirty years old. It is worth replacing on safety grounds alone, and a new unit starts at $250 fitted.
