Rocky Point Park on Burrard Inlet, Port Moody

Short answer

Parkade door repair in Port Moody is busiest at the condo towers around Newport Village, Klahanie and Suter Brook, and at townhouse complexes on Heritage Mountain and Heritage Woods. We fix doors stuck open, doors that reverse or stop, photo eyes, safety edges, remotes, receivers and vehicle damage. Damp winters wear rollers and seals. A door waiting on parts can usually be secured.

  • Tower parkades at Newport Village, Klahanie and Suter Brook cycle many times a day
  • Remote range problems often start at the receiver or wiring at the door
  • Damp air wears rollers, hinges and bottom seals
  • Ice on hillside ramps can freeze the seal to the floor

Busy tower parkades by the inlet

Condo towers around Newport Village, Klahanie and Suter Brook put a lot of cars through one or two parkade doors. After years of that, doors get slow and noisy, and worn rollers, cables and operator parts begin to stop them.

A door stuck open leaves the building unsecured. A door stuck shut traps residents. If a part has to be ordered, the door can in most cases be set to stay closed or run manually. We send quotes to the council or manager, and residents can be told when the door will be out of service.

Remotes and doors that reverse

Remote range problems are common calls. Many start at the receiver or the wiring at the door and can be fixed on the same visit. The building's access-control company looks after the fob system itself.

When a door reverses or stops part way, the usual causes are a dirty or misaligned photo eye, a worn safety edge, or a travel limit that has drifted. We check those first. A door that closes on cars or fails to detect them is taken out of normal use until it is safe.

Townhouse gates, hillsides and wet winters

Strata townhouse complexes on Heritage Mountain and Heritage Woods often have shared gates or parkade doors, and many still run their original 1990s operators. When parts can't be found, we quote a replacement for the council.

Hillside streets get more snow than the waterfront, and ice on a ramp can freeze the bottom seal. Don't let the operator force it. Damp winters wear rollers and seals, so we replace and lubricate them on each visit. We also serve Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Surrey and New Westminster.

Questions we get

Can the parkade stay secure while we wait for parts?

In most cases the door can be set to stay closed or run manually until the repair is finished.

Residents say their remotes only work right at the door. Why?

That usually points to the receiver, its antenna or the wiring at the door, which we can often fix on the same visit.

Why does our door reverse before it reaches the floor?

Often a dirty or misaligned photo eye, a worn safety edge or a drifted travel limit. Those are checked first.

Do you send quotes to the strata council?

Yes. Quotes can go to the council or the manager, and we can help with resident notices.

How often should a busy Port Moody parkade door be serviced?

Parkade doors cycle many times a day, and damp winters add wear. Regular maintenance catches worn rollers, cables and operator parts before they stop the door.
