About three miles from our base, just across the river. We repair garage doors in every Camden neighborhood, from Cramer Hill and East Camden to Fairview, Parkside and downtown. Same-day service, 24/7.
Camden is mostly a city of rowhomes, so a garage here usually means one of a few things: a detached single-car garage behind the house, reached from an alley or a side driveway; an attached garage on a newer townhome or a rebuilt block; or the garage of a small business or mixed-use building.
Many of the doors we work on in Camden are older than anything else on the property. Some are original one-piece or wooden doors that are still lifted by hand. Others have had one part replaced at a time over the years, so the springs, the opener and the door itself no longer match. Most of our Camden calls come back to that: a door that has grown too heavy for its springs, hardware that has rusted, or an opener that was never set up for the door it is lifting.
These neighborhoods have more detached and semi-detached homes than the rest of the city, many with a driveway and a single-car garage. Close to the Delaware and the Cooper River, the air stays damp, and it shows at the bottom of the door: rusted bottom sections, seized rollers and corroded bottom brackets.
The bottom bracket is the part to be careful with. It anchors the lifting cable, which is under heavy spring tension, so a rusted one should never be loosened by hand. If a cable is fraying or has come off its drum, see the warning signs of a failing cable or our garage door cable repair service.

Fairview began as Yorkship Village, built in 1918 to house shipyard workers, years before most families owned a car. The garages came later and they show it: small, usually detached, often with little room at the sides and limited headroom above the door.
A tight garage needs the right hardware. Low-headroom track and spring setups fit spaces where a standard door won't, and many manual doors here can take an opener once the door is properly balanced. See garage door opener repair and installation.

Older rowhome blocks near Farnham Park and Cooper University Hospital, where garages tend to sit at the back of the lot, off a rear alley. A rear garage often holds more than a car, so a door that won't close all the way or won't lock is a security problem, not just an annoyance.
When a door stops short or reverses, the cause is often the safety sensors: knocked out of line, dirty, or with a damaged wire. Start with why a garage door won't close and garage door sensor problems, then call us if it's still stuck.

Newer townhomes, rebuilt blocks and mixed-use buildings near the waterfront and the Rutgers–Camden campus. The doors here are newer, so the problems are different: Wi-Fi and smart openers that drop their connection, remotes and keypads that stop responding, and builder-grade openers wearing out after a few years.
Before you replace an opener, try the fixes in garage door remote not working. Many of them take five minutes.

A one-piece tilt-up or an old wooden door can usually be kept running for a while: new springs, hinges, rollers or an opener. But when the springs, the frame and the door panels are all worn at once, putting money into repairs stops making sense, and an insulated steel sectional door is usually the better long-term choice.
We'll show you both options and tell you which one we'd pick for your garage. If replacement is the answer, see garage door installation and replacement.

Yes, as long as the door is balanced. We check and adjust the springs first, because an opener lifting an unbalanced door wears out quickly and puts a strain on the door.
