Patrick Rose We LOVE our new garage door- it goes beautifully with the look of the whole house. From start to finish, the people who came out to give the estimate, who worked with us over the phone, who installed the door, were all very professional, courteous, and helpful. I also appreciated that they have a showroom where I could see some samples of the doors in person. I recommend Radford Garage Door highly! Diana Loo Very friendly, honest, and trustworthy company. I had another company tell me I needed a new unit for an absurd amount of money. Radford was able to fix my door without replacing the motor. After reading others reviews, I really like the fact that their techs are salary based and not commission. Overall great experience. Rebecka Cooperman We love our garage door and system! The team was very professional in the sales department and in the installation. Damien and Aleko were great and helpful. Reasonable pricing! Thank you so much and would recommend you to anyone. Chris and Natalie Frequently Asked Questions What's included in commercial garage door maintenance? A plan for commercial garage door maintenance runs through a full safety and wear inspection on every visit, not just a quick lube. Our RPM technicians test the UL 325 safety sensors, adjust spring tension and door balance, check cables and rollers for wear, tighten hardware, and verify the manual disconnect. On a fire door, we run the drop test too. The point is catching a failing part while it’s still a cheap fix instead of an emergency call. How often should I schedule preventive maintenance? How often you need garage door preventive maintenance comes down to how hard the door works. High-traffic (warehouses, loading docks, delivery bays): quarterly Medium-traffic (retail, commercial garages): twice a year Low-traffic (residential, light use): once a year A door cycling a hundred times a day wears out on a completely different timeline than one that opens twice, and the schedule should match the workload rather than the calendar. Are garage door maintenance plans worth it? Yes, and the math usually favors it even on one door. Our plan runs $149 for the first door and $75 for each additional one, which is a fraction of what a single emergency spring or opener replacement costs once you factor in the rush fee and the downtime. Beyond the dollars, regular overhead door maintenance extends the life of the equipment and keeps you compliant with the annual safety inspections you’re already required to pass. Do you handle fire door inspection as part of maintenance? Yes. When a system includes a fire door, the fire door inspection and drop test are built into the service visit, confirming the door closes and latches on its own the way code demands. Do I need a garage door inspection or full maintenance? An inspection tells you what’s wrong, but a maintenance visit fixes it before it becomes wrong. A standalone commercial garage door inspection documents the current condition, sensor function, wear points, and compliance gaps. A full commercial garage door maintenance visit does that assessment and then acts on it in the same trip, lubricating friction points, adjusting balance, tightening hardware, and calibrating limit switches. One is a report card; the other is the report card plus the tune-up. Who provides commercial garage door preventive maintenance in San Diego?
