What we fix
One call gets you someone who works on garage doors every day. Here's what customers call us for most.
Torsion and extension springs replaced, often both at once so the door lifts evenly again. The most common reason a door won't open.
Worn rollers, frayed cables and doors that came off the track. We get it running smooth and quiet instead of grinding.
Openers that hum but won't lift, remotes and wall buttons that quit, units coming loose from the ceiling. Repaired or replaced.
Car trapped inside, door stuck open at night? Call any time. We're listed open 24 hours, and many jobs are fixed the same day.
Roll-up and sectional doors for shops, warehouses and metal buildings around Broussard's industrial corridor.
Have a home warranty? Customers tell us we'll get on the phone with your warranty company while we're there.
If you heard a loud bang from the garage, or the door feels very heavy, a spring has probably broken. Springs hold a lot of tension. Keep clear of them, don't keep pressing the opener button, and give us a call.

Reviews
“My car was literally stuck in my garage and the emergency release did not work. Cajun garage doors came out the following morning after the call was placed and replaced both my roller and springs in less than 20 minutes. They maintained professionalism and I would recommend their services to anyone.”
“Sean, the owner, was punctual, knowledgeable, and very personable. He got right to work and had the job completed within about 20 minutes of being on-site. My garage door was broken for less than 24 hours before he had it fixed!”
“Mr. Cortez, the owner himself, was incredibly friendly, professional, and easy to talk to. He replaced both of my garage door springs quickly and did excellent work. He even went above and beyond by fixing my garage door opener on the wall and securing it back in place without me even asking.”
“They replaced both of my garage door springs along with all 10 rollers and made sure everything was working the way it should before they left. … the garage door is running a lot smoother now.”
“Our garage door was making a terrible noise and Sean was able to come out a few hours after I called. Fixed it same day. Also dealt with my home warranty company on the phone while he was over which was very helpful for us!”

Questions
Common signs: a loud bang from the garage, a door that only lifts a few inches or feels very heavy, a gap in the spring coil above the door, or an opener that strains and stops. Don't try to lift or force the door. Call us and we'll take a look.
