I needed a garage door repaired same day due to it being unbalanced and consequently unsafe. Gil's Garage Door and Gate Services came out same day, was very professional, came at the time indicated, and got right to work. I was extremely pleased with the work done and thought the price was fair given my immediate need and the quality of work. Will definitely use them again and refer to friends and family. read more

The most honest guy in the business. I reached out to him on Yelp, I sent him a video of my garage door malfunctioning. He was like, I believe I can solve your issue over the phone. I gave him a call and it turns out the trip sensor of my garage door was dirty with cobwebs. I owe this guy huge, I was ready to buy a new garage door opener. His high reputation on this platform is well deserved and I will go nowhere else from now on. read more

Avi was a great service tech. He was onsite on time and very knowledgeable of the issue and how to get my garage door back to functional again. He provided the costs estimate for the current repair along with options for major replacements of spring/wheel and rails for the long term without any pressure or service up sale. I opted for getting my garage door functional again but will definitely reach out to Gil's Garage Door & Gate Services in the future since the service was quick and cost was fair. Avi was quick and got my garage door back working again in about an hour. I highly recommend this company. read more

I called and was offered a same day appointment which was nice, even though I had a non-urgent issue. The technician arrived on time and had called earlier to give me an ETA too. Honestly, the whole appointment was really confusing for me. I'm not sure if it just depends on the technician, but I didn't get that "free quote/estimate" as advertised on Gil's website. I felt like there was a lot of upselling initially, such as pressure to get entirely new cables, rollers, and springs when my initial concern was the gap between the door and floor (potential rodent entry). When I questioned if this was really necessary and that I wasn't interested in pursuing any of those services same day, the technician made comments such as "when it breaks let me know" which was unsettling. Later he did say that I could reuse the rollers and cables I already had to save money which changed the tone of things. He also kept asking personal questions which was uncomfortable. At the end of the appointment, I was slapped with a $721 bill - for what??? Note, if you want to avoid the 3% charge, they recommend paying via Zelle or Venmo (they did refund me the $21 (3%)) since I paid via Zelle. Initially the technician just asked me to Zelle/Venmo him (I didn't even know the amount yet!), but I refused without seeing some kind of invoice first which I did receive in the customer portal minutes later and did pay. Anyways, after the technician had left, I called back to ask for clarification on the services with the price breakdown (learned that it was $175 each for panel repair, motor limit adjustment, springs retention, door rebalanced). I contacted the company again to seek clarification on the services such as whether or not there's standard pricing or if written contracts are typically utilized. I wish there was more explanation on the services. I guess the technician/company could tell I was confused about the situation and at least offered to rectify the situation a few days later which they did. They wanted to emphasize customer satisfaction which I do appreciate. I think the overall experience would've been much more pleasant if everything was in writing and there was actually a (no-pressure) free estimate as advertised. Overall, I don't think Gil's Garage Door & Gate Services has any ill intent and they do value customer satisfaction. Maybe it just depends on the technician. Also recommend buddying up with someone during the appointment to avoid being asked personal questions or reduce possible upselling. Other than that, Gil's work quality seems fine and they are very quick. read more

I had called 2 different garage companies and even made a consultation appointment with one of them before contacting Gil's Garage door. The fact that Gil, the owner was the one who answered the phone he was able to give me a approximate of what could be wrong with my garage door and gave me a reasonable quote. Just overall vibe I felt from talking to him, made me cancel the other company's appointment and went with Gil instead. He was able to get Avi come to me in about 1 hour on a Sunday afternoon. Avi knew exactly what was wrong with my garage door and literally just took 1 minute and a couple of buttons pressed later and my garage door was fixed. I felt pretty dumb and I should of Youtube how to fix my garage door seeing how Avi did it. But Avi was nice enough to offer for me to record how he fixed the door so that next time it happens I know how to fix it and also told me what to search for on Youtube. He also did an overall maintenance check on my garage door and gave me some advice about maintenance. I am pretty happy with the outcome and just overall peace of mind. Thank you. read more

Had the springs replaced on my garage doors by Avi, he was professional, did a great job, and did it promptly! Highly recommend!

Cable snapped off of garage door, and door became misaligned. Requested a quote via Yelp and Tina responded within minutes. A technician was sent out within 2 hours for a free estimate. Avi examined the situation and was able to reattached the cable, and aligned the door within 30 minutes. Avi was professional and courteous in all aspects. Thanks Avi & Gil's Garage Door Services for fixing my garage door. read more

Leo was very nice and professional. Highly recommend for anyone needs their garage repaired

I have not utilized Gil's Garages yet...however their pre-game is great. I was able to narrow down a team that I could afford, give feedback, and depend on. What I like most was that they provide their own finance company. I was quoted about $2700 for my special size garage, I think 14 x 7. And given the option to put $1000 down to start the order and fabrication of the door and installment payments of less than $350 a month to finish the deal. Who can beat that! But it wasn't the price. It was the follow-on care that really made me make the decision to go with these guys. Thank you. read more

Great service from Gil's. Highly recommend. They came out less than 24hrs notice to assess a broken part on door. Ended up replacing motor for a reasonable price. Avi cane to service and installed new motor in an hour. Quick and reliable! 5 stars!!! read more

Good service and the job was built to the specifications . Great follow through if there are ever any issues. I definitely would recommend them for future jobs. I will be using them again in my future jobs! Feel free to contact this review for further info... read more

A car drove into our beloved wooden garage door. Avi came out within an hour, removed the old door so we could get our car out, and then boarded it up. The new door is even more beautiful than the old one! The installers and the painter were kind, helpful, and tidy and finished in one day. Lastly, and most importantly, Avi's expertise helped make the insurance claim process practically seamless. Highly recommended!! read more

Thank you! read more

We had a garage door issue and Gil's was the 3rd garage door company that we talked to. Garage door company #1 sent a rep that was very pushy and super sketch. He also wanted $600 to lower the door prior to assessing and quoting on recommended repairs. Garage door company #2 sent a rep that was still very aggressive, but at least they were able to get the door in a somewhat functional condition (door rollers back on the rails, cabling back on the drums, spring tension redone) for $200. It was functioning in manual mode, but in automatic, the door would stop 2/3s of the way down and go back up. Company #2 incorrectly diagnosed the problem as an internal issue with the limits on the door opener. They also wouldn't give a straight quote or a recommendation on what to fix. It was more of an a la carte - if you want to replace the springs, $699; cables + drums + springs ($1529); garage door opener $2500+. This would be like going to a car mechanic for squeaky brakes and getting menu pricing of replacing each part of your car. I digress... here's the actual review: Because of the first two companies, I was ready for more shenanigans from Gil's. However, the representative that arrived was a breath of fresh air. Avi examined the area and gave us his assessment. The door was balanced and no visible issues with any of the parts. The Chamberlain wall mount unit was unlikely to be the issue as they are fairly robust units and probably just needed reprogramming. I told him I wanted to try and reprogram it myself and asked for a quote on a replacement in case it was an opener issue. Avi was extremely professional, honest, and taught us a little about the mechanics of the door opening system. Even though we were able to resolve the problem, I would definitely go with Gil's for any major repair. After seeing all three repairmen, I took some time on the weekend to see if there was anything I could adjust. I noticed the rail was two separate pieces of metal and that they weren't aligned perfectly with each other. I used an adjustable wrench to bend the rails a little to fix that. I also added some lubricant to the rails and cleaned the safety sensors as well. Garage door is working like a charm now. read more

Appreciated the prompt service provided by Gil in repairing the garage door. I contacted them and within a few hours, the repair was completed. He carefully explained the situation and provided quality service at a fair price. I especially liked the care he took in completing the project in extending beyond just replacing the spring and moving on. He checked the operation of the garage door and lubricated each of the moving parts to make sure continued operation of the garage door. I feel confident in the repair based upon the service provided. Gil personally completed the project in repairing the garage door. A++ for communication, prompt friendly service, and follow through with quality service. read more

Fantastic business and I can't recommend them highly enough after having other "free estimates" upsell me in other areas such as electricians. Our garage door lights have been continuously going on all night due to a malfunctioning motion sensor. I called and set up a free estimate visit today. I received a message to confirm my appointment this morning and David was courteous enough to give me a call fifteen minutes before his arrival and asked where he can park. He reviewed the situation and called his supervisor who walked him through how to manually disable the motion sensors on our panels with left side buttons I never knew about (see pictures). He tested it out and told me he will call tomorrow to see if the lights went on again overnight and if the problem was resolved. David also showed me the new LED models by Liftmaster that have built in cameras and sent me a detailed quote with all the features and explained the lifetime warranty and Gil's 4 year warranty on the parts as well as the battery backup feature which is great in case of a power failure or emergency. There is a keypad panel that comes with the new models for opening the garage without the remote from the outside. Nice feature for getting into the house without a key. Will definitely ask for this new model with the LED and camera for my birthday present to make it easier to back my car up into a tight garage space and I know which company and technician I'll be using. Highly recommend both Gil's Garage and David for all your garage door needs! read more

Gil's Garage Door & Gates responded within an hour when we were in a pinch.

Great experience! Showed up within 2 hours of me calling and Avi did a great job with the repair and price was reasonable. Highly recommend

We had been having problems with our garage door for the past couple months. We had problems closing our garage whenever we pushed the button. A different garage door company ripped us off by changing the spring, and it didn't even solve the problem. Our garage still wouldn't close properly. I contacted Gil's Services and he responded quickly. He came by and it was the sensor that was the issue and he was able to fix the problem in seconds. I felt a little embarrassed that it was just a simple thing, but Gil was extremely nice about it and was so helpful. I can't thank him enough and will definitely use his services if needed in the future. Don't hesitate to contact Gil for your garage door needs! read more

My garage door wasn't opening and instead of coming out for a service appointment and charging me, they gave me the link to a YouTube video to fix the problem on my own.

A motorbike drove into our garage door. Itay came out for the estimate and gave us a thorough explanation of what the work involved. He also forced open the door so that we can get our car out of the garage. The work was done very methodically and carefully. We really like the finished product. Their pricing was very fair and I felt that he didn't try to upsell us, although we needed the work to be done ASAP. Gil's is definitely worth a call. read more

Very knowledgeable and professional. Gil's is great for installation or troubleshooting.

Gil's staff were very polite and got the work our garage door working in very quick time.

Prompt service and willing to wait 10 min when I was late. Had the parts in hand and knowledgeable.

My garage wouldn't close with the remote despite all attempts to troubleshoot as instructed in the manual and online. Sometimes there is no substitute for a competent professional. I looked at several companies on Yelp and decided to call Gil's. The service rep was able to get me an appointment the next morning and the technician notified me by text 20 minutes before arriving as they said he would. After he arrived, we tested the door and of course, it worked fine. But eventually he was able to see it fail and he said he would evaluate the system and text me when he was ready to give me the good (or bad) news. He was very efficient and thorough. He presented me with the optional solutions and talked me through the costs. We settled on trying the easiest, least expensive solution, which was to replace the sensors. When all was said and done, my door worked and didn't cost me half a paycheck. He did advise that it may need additional work down the line, but now I know exactly who to call! read more
