Maybe your car is trapped inside, you're late for work, or your bike is glaring at you from behind a jammed door. Whatever the case, if you've landed here after searching "garage door repair Portland", relax - you're exactly where you need to be. At 24/7 Locksmith Portland, we do more than just locksmith work; we specialize in garage door repairs too. Surprised? Don't worry, we get that a lot.
We often get calls from confused Portlanders asking, "Wait - do locksmiths actually fix garage doors?" Yep, we sure do. Just ask Nick from Oregon City, who called us one chilly morning when his garage door spring snapped, trapping his truck inside minutes before an important job interview. Nick nervously asked, "Can a locksmith really handle this?" We quickly assured him - garage door spring repair is absolutely our thing.
Our mobile locksmith (and garage-door wizard) arrived promptly, replaced the broken spring, and had Nick on his way to his interview in no time. Nick later texted us, "Not sure how, but you guys just became my favorite locksmith near me - even though it wasn't technically a lock!"
Portland garages seem to wait until the absolute worst possible moments to break - usually on rainy mornings when you're already late. Megan from Alberta Arts learned this firsthand when her garage door decided to stop working right as she was heading to a job presentation. Panicked, Megan searched "24 hour locksmith Portland" (yes, garage doors count), found us, and crossed her fingers.
We arrived fast, quickly discovered a snapped garage door spring, and replaced it on the spot. Megan was relieved and grateful: "You guys officially saved my morning - and probably my job. Thanks for being so fast!" She nailed her presentation, by the way (go Megan!).

If you've heard the phrase "jackshaft garage door opener" and wondered if it's some complicated machine from another planet, don't worry - it's simpler than it sounds. These side-mounted openers are popular in Portland garages because they save overhead space, but like anything mechanical, they can sometimes misbehave.
Sean from SE Portland called us, baffled because his jackshaft opener suddenly refused to cooperate, leaving his beloved bikes stranded inside. He quickly found us under "garage door service Portland", called, and hoped for the best. Our technician arrived promptly, fixed the opener quickly, and freed Sean's bikes before his morning ride. Sean later joked, "I honestly had no idea locksmiths handled this. You're like Portland's best-kept secret".
Here's the thing: garage doors rarely break at convenient times, and the odds of your door breaking within walking distance of a repair shop are pretty slim (unless you're really lucky). That's why our 24 hr locksmith team in Portland operates fully-equipped mobile vans, stocked and ready to fix your garage doors on-site, day or night.
Just ask Carlos from Oregon City Garage Door fame. After being stuck with a broken door at midnight, Carlos called us asking, "Are you guys seriously open right now?" We answered, "Absolutely". Carlos was back inside, safe and sound, within the hour, saying gratefully, "I never knew 24-hour locksmiths also did garage doors, but now you're my permanent go-to".
