Garage doors for Lithonia's older homes, townhomes and rentals

One family has owned All Four Seasons since 1999. Lithonia grew up around granite quarries, and its homes show their age: plenty of 1960s and 1970s houses, some far older close to the historic district, plus townhomes and apartment communities. Two in three homes here are rented, so a call can come from an owner, a tenant or a manager.

Our technician inspects springs, cables, rollers and the opener, then writes the price down for the person paying for the job. If the old door is past saving, garage door installation in Lithonia starts with measuring the opening and choosing a style. Phones are answered 7 AM to 8 PM, seven days.

Garage doors in the city of stone

Lithonia's name means city of stone, after the granite quarried around it since the 1800s. Its historic district, its older housing and its many rentals all shape what a Lithonia garage door needs from us.

Seven in ten homes built before 1990

Census estimates show 72% of Lithonia homes were built before 1990: 22% in the 1970s, 13% in the 1960s and 28% before 1960, with a median build year of 1974. A garage of that age, if the parts are still original, often has extension springs stretched along the tracks with no cable running through them, and an opener made before 1993, when new openers began to need a second safety device, usually photo-eyes. We thread safety cables, swap tired springs and set up sensors before anything cosmetic.

Townhomes, apartments and rentals

About 12% of Lithonia homes are townhomes, 42% sit in buildings of five or more units, and two in three are rented. A townhome garage is usually one car wide and opened several times a day, so worn rollers and loose hinges get loud quickly. Renters should report the problem to the landlord or manager first. Whoever pays tells us so, receives the written quote and signs off before our technician starts.

A granite town and its historic district

The Lithonia Historic District covers 441 acres and was added to the National Register in 2016. It includes commercial buildings of locally quarried granite and landmarks like the 1895 Seminary and the 1928 Lithonia Women's Club. The city is also a gateway to the Arabia Mountain National Heritage Area. Houses close to downtown sometimes have narrow or free-standing garages, so we measure the opening and look over the framing before quoting a new door.

Dependable doors for older homes

A 1970s brick ranch, a townhome with a one-car garage, a rental between tenants: each needs something sturdy and simple. Here are six choices that fit Lithonia houses, along with the fixes that make an old door safe again.

Lithonia homes by the numbers

Lithonia housing at a glance

Built before 1990
72%

Most Lithonia houses are past 35. On a door that old, springs, lift cables and the opener's reversing sensors deserve a close look before anything else.

Renter-occupied homes
67%

Renters outnumber owners two to one. Tell us who pays for repairs, and the quote goes straight to that person for approval.

Townhomes (single-family attached)
12%

Roughly one home in eight is a townhome. Their single-car garages see heavy daily use, so quieter rollers and a smooth belt-drive opener help.

Lithonia FAQ

Lithonia garage door questions

1970s doors, stuck doors, noisy townhome garages, rentals and shop doors.

Still have questions?(678) 271-8918
Springs and lift cables usually go first, followed by rollers and the bottom seal. If the opener has never been replaced, it may predate the second safety device, usually photo-eyes, required on openers made since 1993. Lay a 2x4 flat under the middle of the closing door: it should reverse on contact. If it doesn't, unplug the opener until it's fixed.
Much of that noise often comes from steel rollers, dry hinges and loose bolts. Nylon rollers, a light lubricant and tightened hardware quiet it a lot. An old chain-drive opener is often the loudest part; a belt drive runs far quieter. We quote each piece separately so you can choose.
Report it to your landlord or property manager, because the lease usually makes repairs their job. They can call us directly, or you can call and give us their contact. The written quote goes to the person paying, and nothing happens until they sign off.
Stop pressing the remote. A door stuck partway often has a snapped spring or a cable that has slipped off its drum, and it could fall. Pull the opener's plug and keep children and pets away. Lithonia garage door repair for this starts with finding which part failed, then a price on paper.
When panels are rusted through, cracked or rotted, or you are paying for repairs every year, a new insulated steel door usually wins over time. If the door itself is solid, springs and rollers might be all it needs. We write up both so you can compare garage door installation in Lithonia with a repair.
Common causes are a remote with a stuck button, a wall button with damaged wiring, or an older opener with a fixed code that another remote can trigger. Check the remotes and wall button first. Newer openers use rolling codes that change each time. We test the wiring and logic board and give you written prices for a repair or a new opener.
