What Customers Say About Our Spring & Cable Repair in Santiago Hills
Real reviews from Santiago Hills and nearby Orange neighborhoods.
βIn Santiago Hills at 5:20, extension springs were the original 1979 pair and the door felt like it weighed a ton. Santiago Hills slopes above Chapman with settling tracks. They converted the 1979 extension pair to torsion and added safety cables at 5:20 in Santiago Hills. Backup proved out.β
βOur Orange Park Acres door at 19:58: the left cable birdcaged on the drum, so the door hung like a shrug. Orange Park Acres horse properties and their wide custom doors. They reeved a new left cable, seated the drum, and leveled the shrug out of the door for this Orange Park Acres door. Hardware stays clean.β
βSteve is a wonderful human being! He has a super working ethics! Whenever we needed him, he showed up within 10 minutes & fixed our garage door that did not close with no charge! The only charge was for the first time! We would highly recommend this company!β

No. The Santiago Hills Landscape Maintenance Assessment District maintains public landscaping and does no architectural review. If your street has its own homeowners association, check with it before ordering a new door.
The area sits near high and very high fire hazard zones, with Santiago Canyon Road named as an evacuation route, and power can go out in fire weather. SB 969 requires backup on residential openers installed since July 1 2019. Battery backup installation typically runs $200 to $400 in Orange County.
On a slope, the opener works against gravity every cycle, so a door slightly out of balance wears it sooner. Door balancing and tension adjustment typically runs $75 to $150 in Orange County.
Permits go through City of Orange Building and Safety Services at 300 East Chapman Avenue, 714-744-7200, and the permit position is confirmed for your address. Widening an opening or altering a header is structural work that needs a permit.
