Questions and Answers
What common fencing issues do Philadelphia homeowners face, and how does Empire Garage Doors address them?
In Philadelphia, common fencing issues include rotting wood from humidity, loose posts due to freeze-thaw cycles, and rust on metal gates. We assess the specific cause—like shifting soil in Germantown or salt damage near the Delaware River—and recommend repairs or replacements using weather-resistant materials. For example, we pressure-treat wood, reinforce posts with concrete, and apply rust-proof coatings for metal fences. We also offer weatherproofing services to extend the life of your fence.
How do I know if my garage door spring needs to be replaced?
Signs include the door being heavy to lift, making a loud bang when closing, or staying partially open. If you notice a gap in the spring or it looks stretched, it might be broken. Never attempt to fix springs yourself—they’re under high tension. Call us for a safe inspection and replacement. We handle both torsion and extension springs for all garage door types.
Can you convert my manual gate to an automatic one?
Yes, we specialize in manual to automatic gate conversions. We install compatible openers, sensors, and keypads for sliding or swinging gates. Our team ensures proper wiring and safety features, such as auto-reverse. This upgrade adds convenience and security to your property in Philadelphia.
