About garage doors in Great Hills
Great Hills is in Northwest Austin near the Arboretum, close to the junction of US 183 and Loop 360, and a short drive from our office.
Great Hills was built mainly from the 1970s through the 1990s on steep, wooded hillsides. Lots are large, and the homes are often multi-level designs that follow the slope.
The terrain produces some distinctive garages: side entry garages, garages beneath the main floor, and steep driveways with a tight approach. Three car garages and wide double doors are common. Wide doors of this age frequently show a sagging top section where the opener arm attaches; a reinforcing strut corrects it and protects the panel.
With many original doors now thirty years old or more, we see a steady mix of spring and cable replacement, opener upgrades, and full door replacement by owners who are renovating.
Our recommendation for Great Hills
For the wide double doors common in Great Hills, we recommend adding a reinforcing strut to the top section if it does not have one. It is an inexpensive part that prevents the sagging and cracking we often see where the opener arm attaches. At the age of most doors here, we also advise replacing the lift cables at the same visit as the springs, since they have done the same work for the same years.
