This one splits a room every time. 😄

Same house, same color, same style door — the only difference is that top row of windows.

1️⃣ Windows
2️⃣ No Windows

We've watched couples disagree about this in their own driveway. One wants the light in the garage, the other doesn't want the neighbors seeing the mess in there. 😅

Which door are you picking? Comment 1 or 2 — and tell us why.

Before you say yes to a new garage door, ask one question:

"What's actually broken?"

If you don't get a straight answer — a specific part, a specific reason — get another opinion.

Most failed doors need a spring, a cable, or a roller. Not a replacement. We'll always price the repair first, and we'll tell you plainly when it's not worth it anymore.

Most dead garage doors are one failed part, not a replacement. Here's how we diagnose it, what it costs, and when a new door is genuinely the right call.

🚨 Garage doors have a sixth sense. They know exactly when you're already late, hauling groceries, or leaving for a 5 a.m. flight — and that's when they decide to quit.

Good news: we don't clock out. Schaefer Garage Doors offers 24/7 emergency service, so whether it's a snapped spring at 2 p.m. or a door stuck halfway at 2 a.m., we'll get you back in (or out).

Now we're curious 👀 — what's the worst possible moment your garage door has ever failed you? Drop it in the comments. We've heard some wild ones, and we're pretty sure someone can top them.

A rake slid off its hook overnight and leaned against the garage door track.

Next morning the door came down, caught it, and stopped on one side while the other kept going. Crooked door. Cable off the drum. Bow in the top section.

A repair nobody budgeted for — started with a rake.

Those two corners beside your door hold the track, the lift cables, the safety sensors, and the spot your door lands every single cycle. It's also exactly where we all lean things.

✅ Keep 18–24" clear on both sides
✅ Hang the rakes and bikes, don't lean them
✅ Watch the door close before you drive off

Costs nothing. Saves a Saturday.

When's the last time you thought about your garage door opener?

Right — nobody does. It's the appliance you use more than your dishwasher and your front door combined, and it gets zero attention until the morning it won't open and your car is stuck behind it.

We just put together a breakdown of why we install LiftMaster, what changed in the newest lineup, and the warning signs your current opener is on its way out.
