About us

Prompt Professional Service Over 15 Years of Experience Family Owned & Operated Being a small business in a large community comes with many challenges, but it has been very encouraging to know that the people of Tucson realize that “good things can come in small packages”. I am working very hard to earn the support of Tucsonan’s that are looking for a company that will satisfy their needs and feel that they have received full value for the money they’ve spent. I am fully aware of the current economic situation that has effected everyone, so I can appreciate the fact that my customers need to stretch their dollars as far as possible. With that in mind, my customers will find that I won’t simply replace a part that can otherwise be repaired, nor will I cut corners and tarnish my reputation just to get a job done. I consider my business to be somewhat “retro” in that I feel that it is important to provide my customers with a job that is “well done”, not just “done”.

I had a long list of things that needed to be fixed on my two garage doors and put off getting someone out because of potential time and cost. When I finally called Able, I was pleasantly surprised to see how quickly Tim figured out what I needed and got everything fixed, and even more pleasantly surprised by how reasonable (shh don't tell him) the bill was. I will definitely use again for all garage door needs.

Tim showed up early for our scheduled appointment and did a visual inspection of our 2 older (1986) garage doors that we thought would have to be replaced. Tim gave me a very nice surprise when he said that the doors were fine just needed a little maintenance and the new openers. He made recommendations for spring tension wires for safety but at no time gave a high pressure sales pitch, he totally let it be my decision what work I wanted to be performed. Tim came back the next day with all the necessary parts and removed the 2 non working garage door openers and installed the 2 new ones in their place. He also installed a remote pad for each opener that has a vacation setting on it. When the entire job was completed Tim took the time to explain the warranty, how everything works and recommended maintenance. We had priced out new garage door openers and doors at Home Depot because we thought the doors would need to be replaced along with the openers. Not only did Tim save the doors but his prices and professionalism far exceeded the competition. I would highly recommend Tim and Able Garage Door Service LLC to anyone especially if you have older garage doors, Tim was great!
Description of Work: removed 2 old garage door openers and installed 2 new garage door openers, door spring tension wires, installed new rubber gaskets on both doors and general maintenance on both doors which we thought would need to be replaced.

Tim is the best! He was able to come by the day after we spoke to assess the damage, and he was able to fix the door right on the spot. He's great - professional, courteous, personable, and provides great advice regarding door operation and condition of the working parts. I wouldn't call anyone else.

This is the second time we have used Able Garage Door and we had an excellent experience just like the first time. Tim had previously repaired our 1987 vintage double-wide metal garage door, after it broke down 2-3 years ago. We thought then it would surely need to be replaced: it was old, sagged badly in the middle and was inoperable! Tim, a shining exemplar of integrity, honesty, professionalism & fairness, informed us it did not have to be replaced! Instead, all he needed to do to restore it to operability was add a metal support strut for a fraction of the cost of a new door... This time, we needed him to fix a broken garage door spring. Tim, who is also an excellent teacher, took the time to describe the nature & scope of the problem and the general nature of mechanical systems like automatic garage doors with moving parts to have inherent stresses & wear that eventually cause parts to break despite good preventive maintenance. He communicated clearly & worked efficiently to install 2 new springs, then to comprehensively inspect, tune and lubricate the door and door opening system. He reassured us our old garage door still has some useful life and said the strut he installed is still doing it's job! We originally chose Able because they were a local Tucson firm -- in general, we prefer supporting local firms with our business over the Phoenix - Scottsdale mega-firms who extend their businesses to cover Pima County. And we chose them because Able had consistently gotten rave reviews on Angie's List and still does! Cost of 2015 job = about $200.
Description of Work: Tim Hale, local Tucsonan & owner, promptly returned our call and arranged a service call after we had a garage door spring break. He arrived exactly on time, quickly assessed, diagnosed & repaired the problem.

He came out promptly, fixed the problem and didn't charge me an arm and a leg. I plan on using him if I need garage door work in the future. Have already recommended him to a friend. He came to her house before she went to work to accommodate her schedule!
Description of Work: On a Sunday my garage door broke. I couldn't close it manually, so I called another provider on Angie's List, who said "I don't work on Sunday". I called Tim at Able Garage Door because I had used him before. He said he would come out.

Once I had the garage framed, Mr. Hale returned and installed the garage door. It is beautiful and it added great value to may home. It has worked great for the last four years. I would have given Able Garage Door and A+ had Angie's list had that as an option in the grading scale. I have recommended Able Garage Door to many people over the last four years. Everyone has given me excellent feedback. If all the business owners had the integrity Mr. Hale possesses the word complaint would not exist in our language.
Description of Work: As I framed in the front of my garage I needed to know the exact measurements to make sure the door would fit. Mr. Hale came out and gave me the measurements after looking at the progress I had made on the framing. His knowledge and expertise was of great assistance.

He was just fantastic and everything was really professionally done. He showed up on time and went over my options with me. He showed me how to program my car for my door and cleaned up everything. He also told me the only thing left that could go wrong is the spring and if that were to go wrong, do this, don’t do this other thing because it would damage the motor. That happened about six months later and he told me over the phone how to get the door down and then he showed up the next morning and replaced that part. His price was also good for the quality.

.Prompt and courteous service. Returned once to address issue with noise. Garage door makes cracking noise when going up. I was told that paint not totally dry because of humidity. I painted door the weekend after installation. The humidity continues and the door still makes noise. I would contact door manufacturer but warranty states that door is not covered if painted. Since HOA requires garage doors to be the same color of the house I didn't have a choice. I doubt the noise still comes from the paint.

My garage door had not been serviced for several years and I wanted a tune-up done. In addition, I was concerned about the chain slapping back and forth and making noise when the door was raised...I was afraid I might have a bigger issue than just a tune-up. Tim came out as scheduled. He pointed out the problem with the chain...basically, it was acting the way it was because its point of contact above the box had not been lubricated in quite some time. He then explained the garage door mechanism/system and showed me what parts should be lubricated on a yearly basis. Tim was wonderful...I would use him again!

Over Easter weekend, we found our 16 foot garage door suddenly wouldn?t close. As it went down, it would buckle and drop, putting more tension on the motor and causing it to reverse. We called several companies on Angie?s List with good ratings and, Tim, of Able Garage Door Service was the only company to call back over the weekend. He quickly set up an appointment to come to the house Monday morning to investigate and, hopefully, to fix the door. He arrived on time and quickly diagnosed the problem?a cracked panel. We had feared it might be time to replace the door at a $900 to $1,500 cost, after all it is the house's original garage door so it is 27 years old. He reassured us that he could repair it. He had the proper part on his truck?a 16 foot metal strut, which would keep the door from buckling and dropping at the site of the crack. He quickly did the repair, adjusted the springs, inspected and lubricated the rollers and tested everything to make sure all worked well. He was generous with his time and took time to point out that two other panels in this door have cracks and he gave us useful information about what we might expect in the future with this old door, which is nearing the end of its functional life. He took the time to explain that garage door springs will, sooner or later, break and he showed us how to open the door after a break, so we can get our vehicles out until a repair can be done. He asked if there was anything else he could do before leaving and it occurred to one of us that we had not been able to successfully program the garage door button built into our Lexus SUV when we bought the house 2 1/2 years ago. He kindly offered to program it for us and quickly did so. Over all, we were very pleased with his responsiveness, availability, punctuality, professionalism, skill, expertise, quality of customer service and surprisingly low charges for the repairs, with inspection and door servicing.

Very nice gentleman, came at the agreed upon time, made some adjustments, and we thought the problem was corrected. Within just a couple of days, it was clear there was still an issue. Called the company, no return call; decided to call once again before we wrote them off. After several conversations, Able came by to check problem decided he was not as knowledgeable on the product, and had his expert come back over. Long story short, parts were ordered and installed, within two weeks problem reoccurred. Called another company.

Response from Able Garage Door Service LLC
In nearly every instance, we are successful in ascertaining problems with the operational aspects of a garage door or opener and complete all repairs to the customer's satisfaction. To be clear, this particular style of opener has its own unique method of functioning. As a result, repairing the door meant that parts had to be specially ordered and installed at a later date. Upon completing the installation of the new parts, the door worked flawlessly and to the customer's satisfaction. Unfortunately, we later learned through a review from the customer that the door opener did not continue to operate as we had previously believed upon completion of the job. We wish that the customer would have notified us that the door opener was still not operating correctly and allowed us to return and work diligently until we were absolutely certain that the door would not malfunction in the future and that would be in accordance with our Customer Satisfaction Policy at Able Garage Door Service. However, that was not the case and we certainly accept the fact that it is the customer's prerogative to opt to have another company attempt to fix the problem and we certainly respect their decision to do so and hope that the door is functioning properly. That is the ultimate goal of all parties involved. It is evident from the many reviews that we have received from our customers that we are providing services above and beyond expectations, yet we are never satisfied if there is even a single customer who has expressed dissatisfaction. We can learn from the customer's reviews, both positive and negative, and use their valuable input to help us achieve our goal of providing the highest standards of service possible to our customers in the Tucson area. Thank You, Able Garage Door Service

We did not use them but from what I remember, they were fine as far as their coming out. We chose a different company because the style of the door that we wanted was different but they were very competitive on their pricing. Our interaction with them was good. They were prompt to respond back and they came when they said that they would. We got the bid the next day or maybe that afternoon. It was a while ago that we have had this done and it has been over a year ago that we have actually had our garage doors replaced. Their price was also right within the other estimates that we got.

The experience went well and I was satified with the contact. My new garage doors works great!
Description of Work: My Genie direct drive garage door opener was approximately 15 years old (or more), and had been giving me problems off and on. It was slow to open/close, would fail to open/close except manually, and was noisy. Unfortunately the problems increased and I was forced to replace it. I called Able Garage Door Service and was provided a date and time to have it looked at. The individual providing the service was prompt, direct, and professional. After inspecting the opener and explaining his findings, he recommended that a replacement vs. another repair would be best in the long run. He advised me that if I wanted to stay with a direct drive unit, he could recommend some places. He informed me that he would not be charging me for the visit. I told him that when I found the updated version I would give him a call and have him install it. I was very greatful for his couteous gesture and his honesty. I did purchase a new garage door opener, but it was the wrong one. Again he did not charge me for the service call, but he did recommend a change of garage door units ( chain,belt,direct drive) and companies. I appreciated the advice and assistance.

The repairman arrived on time, and met all commitments. In addition, they provided a much better and more economical solution to my problem than another company who gave me an estimate. They told me I had to replace the opener, and given the age of the door, it would be best to replace both the opener and door together. Able GD also showed me how to adjust my door to open and close properly, which I was not aware of. Great service and excellent work.

For the last 2 weeks my garage door made a terrible grinding noise as soon as the door was about 3-4 inches off the ground. Tim immediately explained to me the most likely problem was and told me he would look to see if that was the case before we did anything else. Sure enough it was that piece that rides the track and pulls the door off the ground. He had the piece right in his truck and took him 15-20 minutes to get it off and put it back on. When I asked him about a remote control for the door, which I didn't own, he looked at everything and again...pulled it right out of the truck, programmed it, and good to go! Tim was respectful, informative, and provided helpful suggestions but never trying to upsell anything. The fact that I called him early on a Saturday and he was here within 2 hours, which was the time he promised, that was fantastic! This is the 2nd time I use Able Garage Door Service to help get my garage door back on track. I've been impressed both times! I would highly, highly recommend him.
