Garage Door Before & After in McKinney, TX

Photos tell the truth faster than adjectives ever could. That’s why we document every job with a photo record tracing back to the founding rule Servo was built on in 2015: the customer sees the failed part before anyone quotes a replacement. The transformations below represent the kind of work we do across McKinney, from Stonebridge Ranch to Craig Ranch. Same diagnostic honesty, same written price before any work starts, same documented result when we leave.

Recent Transformations

Torsion Spring Failure in Stonebridge Ranch

The torsion spring measured at 0.225-inch wire diameter and showed a clean break at the coil, the kind that happens around the 10,000-cycle mark. We pulled the old spring, verified the door weight, and installed a matched pair of galvanized springs rather than a single replacement. The door now lifts with one hand on the emergency release and holds position at mid-travel, which is exactly what a balanced door should do.

Off-Track Door After a Hard Close in Craig Ranch

A bent roller popped out of the track when the door came down on a rake handle, and the homeowner kept hitting the opener. That forced the lower panel outward and pulled two more rollers out behind it. We removed the tension safely, re-seated the panels, replaced all four rollers on the left side with nylon-bearing units, and trued the track with a level. The door runs quiet now and clears the lintel by a full inch on both sides.

Opener Logic Board Replacement in Trinity Falls

The opener was a Chamberlain PD612 with a logic board that had a blown capacitor, visible on the bench before we ever quoted the replacement. We installed a factory board, reprogrammed the travel limits and force settings, and verified the photo-eye sensors reversed the door correctly. The wall button lights up now, and the remote range improved by about fifteen feet because the new board’s receiver isn’t fighting a failing capacitor.

Wood Door Replacement to Insulated Steel in Eldorado Heights

The original cedar door had a rotted bottom rail that had been patched twice and was still wicking moisture into the lower panel. We measured the opening, ordered a double-layer steel door with a 10.2 R-value, and hung it on new track with a fresh seal along the sill. The owner’s utility bill dropped $18 a month through that McKinney winter, and the new door doesn’t bow when the afternoon sun hits the west-facing elevation.

Broken Cable with a Side of DIY in Allen

We get at least one of these a month: someone tried to adjust spring tension with a crescent wrench and ended up with a cable off the drum. In this case the right cable snapped three feet from the drum and the door was hanging at a 7-degree angle, still connected to the opener. We released the tension safely, replaced both cables as a set, and re-wrapped the drums with equal turns. We also photographed the failed cable before quoting the replacement, per Clause 4, and the customer kept the photo.

Commercial Dock Door Service in McKinney’s Industrial District

A forklift clipped the right vertical track and the door kept binding against it until the spring gave out under the strain. We replaced the bent track section, installed a heavier spring assembly rated for the door’s 14-foot drop, and set the cable tension on both sides to within an eighth of an inch. The door now cycles under load eight to ten times a day without drifting, and the facility manager has our number saved.
