Garage Door Repair in West Palm Beach, FL
A century of housing in one city, from 1920s Mediterranean garages in El Cid to new construction out at Ibis. We carry the parts, and the patience, for all of it.

West Palm Beach spreads a hundred years of construction across one service area, and garage door work here rewards a company that respects that. First Garage Door Repair now works the city from its Lake Park office, about 15 minutes up I-95 from downtown, and the work splits into three very different jobs: historic-district garages with custom-size doors, mid-century neighborhoods with hardware at end of life, and the gated golf communities out west running big modern double doors. Same flat pricing in all three.
The historic districts need doors nobody stocks
El Cid, Flamingo Park, Grandview Heights and Northwood hold garages built for Model A Fords. The openings are narrower and often shorter than anything sold off the shelf, and the neighborhoods have an architectural character worth protecting. We solve these two ways: custom-width and custom-height doors ordered to the true opening, or a rebuild of the existing door’s springs, cables and track so an original door keeps working another decade. Either way we measure first, quote flat, and flag any historic-district approval requirements before a single screw turns.
West Palm Beach pricing
| Repair | Typical price |
|---|---|
| Broken spring (torsion, pair) | $200 to $500 |
| Opener repair | $150 to $300 |
| Section / panel replacement | $250 to $800 |
| New single door installed | $700 to $2,000 |
| New double door installed | $1,200 to $4,000 |
Custom-size doors are quoted after measurement, standard repairs match our published 2026 cost guide to the dollar.

A hurricane code advantage Palm Beach owners should know
Here is a detail that saves money: West Palm Beach is not in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Broward and Miami-Dade are, but Palm Beach County follows the Florida Building Code’s wind-borne debris rules instead. Your new door still needs a real wind-load rating with Florida Product Approval, but not the stricter Miami-Dade certification, which widens the catalog and usually trims the price. We stock and install doors correct for this county and explain the insurance side, including the wind mitigation credit, on our hurricane impact door page.

I had been searching for a new motor for my garage door for a long time and got many quotes from different companies until I found First Garage Door Repair. They offered the best price I could find! The technician was very friendly, helpful, and did a perfect job. …
Job well done! Had a technician come out the same day we called for an estimate and the job was set and completed two days later. All questions and phone calls were answered on the first attempt. Doors now open and close smoothly!
West Palm Beach garage door questions
Where do you dispatch West Palm Beach calls from?
From our Lake Park office off Northlake Boulevard, about 15 minutes north of downtown on I-95, with the Boca Raton shop as backup. We run Palm Beach County calls daily, same day service is normal for morning bookings, and there is no travel fee and no after-hours surcharge.
My 1920s El Cid garage has a door size nobody stocks. What are my options?
Custom-width and custom-height doors solve this, and we install them regularly in the historic districts. Often we can also rebuild the existing door’s hardware to keep an original look. If your home sits in a historic district we will flag any approval requirements before work begins.
Is the hurricane code different in West Palm Beach than in Boca or Broward?
Yes, and it matters for price. Broward and Miami-Dade sit in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. Palm Beach County, including West Palm Beach, uses the wind-borne debris rules of the Florida Building Code instead, so doors here need a Florida Product Approval wind rating but not the stricter Miami-Dade approval. It widens your door options and often lowers the cost.
What does garage door repair cost in West Palm Beach?
The same honest ranges we publish for our whole service area: springs $200 to $500 the pair, cables $100 to $250, opener repair $100 to $300, new openers $350 to $650 installed. One flat quote before work starts and the service call is free with the repair.
