Commercial Door Maintenance in New Westminster
We service commercial overhead, roll-up and parkade doors on a schedule in New Westminster, from busy condo parkades in Uptown and Downtown to older doors on extension springs.
Service check on a strata parkade door
Commercial door maintenance in New Westminster covers scheduled visits for condo parkade doors, storefront shutters and service doors. Each visit lubricates moving parts, checks springs, cables, rollers and hinges, tests balance and safety reversal, and notes repairs. Older doors on extension springs fail more often in cold snaps, and damp weather wears wood doors and frames, so those get a close look.
- Older doors with extension springs fail more often in cold snaps, so springs are checked every visit.

- Damp weather wears wood doors and frames on older buildings.
- Every visit is written up for your records.
Older doors and older springs
New Westminster has some of the oldest building stock in the region. Many older doors still run on extension springs, and those springs fail more often in cold snaps. Damp weather also wears wood doors and frames.
A visit checks spring tension and cable condition, lubricates moving parts and looks at the door and frame for damp damage. Springs that are close to the end can be replaced before they break.
Busy condo parkades
Uptown and Downtown are mostly low-rise and high-rise condos, and their parkade doors cycle all day. Most commercial doors are serviced once or twice a year, but busy parkade doors may need more frequent visits.
Steep slopes and tight lane access can make access harder, so we plan visits at times that suit residents. Each visit takes under an hour per door for most doors.
Records, plans and costs
Each visit is written up, so you have a history of every door's condition and repairs. Doors across several properties can be on one plan with one point of contact.
The cost depends on the number and type of doors and how often each is serviced. We book Monday to Saturday, 7am to 7pm, and also cover Surrey, Burnaby, Port Coquitlam and Coquitlam.
