Same tech you talked to on the phone. Same flat quote. Shoe covers on, tools out, fixed. Warranty + receipt in your email before the truck leaves the driveway.
95% one-visit fixesSERVICES
Whatever broke, we've seen it.
Spring, opener, panel, cable, track, or full replacement — we stock parts for all of it on every truck.
Spring Repair
Snapped torsion spring with a clear gap in the middle = you're stuck. Most common call we get. We stock every common size on every truck. In and out, usually 45 minutes.
Opener Repair & Install
Opener won't respond, motor hums but door won't move, or sensors keep flashing? We service LiftMaster, Genie, Chamberlain, and Sommer. MyQ retrofits available on most models.
New Installation
New door installs start with a free onsite measure. Steel, insulated steel, wood, glass-aluminum. Same-day removal of the old door on install day. Hauled off, not left in your driveway.
24/7 Emergency
Answering at 11pm on Christmas isn't a marketing line. It's the job. Truck rolls within two hours in metros, four in rural. Trip charge waived if you book the repair.
Downtime costs money. We minimize both.
Every hour a commercial overhead door is down costs your business money — lost loads at a warehouse, angry customers at an auto shop, closed bays at a fire station. Our commercial dispatch operates on a 1–2 hour response window in Birmingham, Huntsville, Montgomery, and Mobile metros. Outside those metros: 3–4 hours max.
Door types we service: sectional overhead (most warehouses, auto shops), rolling steel (loading docks, storage facilities), fire-rated (any commercial space requiring code-compliant fire separation), high-speed (distribution centers where door cycles 500+ times a day), and counter shutter (concession stands, food service).
Industries we work with regularly: warehouses (Amazon-adjacent logistics in Birmingham and Mobile), auto shops (Jiffy Lube, Firestone, independent), fire and EMS stations, self-storage facilities, manufacturing floors, government buildings (we're on the approved vendor list for several Jefferson and Mobile county contracts).
Commercial FAQ
How fast can you respond to commercial emergencies?
1–2 hours in Birmingham, Huntsville, Montgomery, and Mobile metros. Commercial customers get priority dispatch. Outside metros: 3–4 hours max. Maintenance contract customers get same-hour priority.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Quarterly plans from $99/quarter/door include inspections, lubrication, safety photo-eye alignment, weatherseal checks, and priority emergency dispatch. Multi-door discounts scale with count (5+ doors get 15% off, 10+ get 20% off).
We run high-cycle (500+ per day). What parts do we need?
High-cycle operations need heavy-duty springs (20k+ cycle rating), commercial-grade openers (1 HP minimum), and reinforced tracks. Fire-safety photo eyes. Expect to rebuild springs/cables every 2–3 years at that cycle rate.
Fire-rated doors — do you do those?
Yes. We install and service 90-minute and 3-hour rated fire doors for commercial code compliance. Testing and re-certification when required. Common applications: manufacturing partitions, stairwells, warehouse separations.
Can you work with our property management / facilities team?
Yes — standard PO workflows, NET-30 terms available for qualified accounts, and we hold general liability + workers' comp insurance up to $2M. Certificate of insurance provided on request.

We've watched too many Alabama homeowners get re-dispatched three times for a broken spring. That's why we stock parts on every truck, quote over the phone, and send the same tech from call to fix.
Honest reviews. Alabama people.
"Spring snapped at 8:40 PM on a Sunday. Wife's car was locked inside. Guy on the phone told me it sounded like a torsion break, quoted me flat over the phone . Two hours later we were parked in the garage again. Same number he quoted, no tricks."
"Storm knocked out our opener and bent the top panel. Two other companies wanted to sell us a whole new door. Paragon replaced just the panel and the opener motor for under half. Still looks brand new a year later."
"Honestly my LiftMaster died after 12 years and Paragon told me up front the old unit wasn't worth repairing. Installed a new belt-drive opener the same afternoon. Walked me through the MyQ app before he left. Didn't try to upsell me on anything."
