Garage doors in Boca Raton
Boca has two very different kinds of garage. East of Federal Highway, in neighborhoods like Old Floresta, Boca Square and the streets around Palmetto Park Road, many houses are older, with single car garages, low headroom and in some cases extension springs running along the sides of the door instead of a torsion bar overhead. Those doors need a different repair than a modern one, and the salt air this close to the ocean rusts springs, cables and track faster than inland. West of I-95 the city is mostly planned communities and country clubs built from the seventies onward, with two and three car garages, side load doors and heavier carriage style panels. A lot of those houses are still running the springs, rollers and opener the builder installed, which is why a single broken spring there so often turns out to be the first of several worn parts. Nearly every community also has an architectural review, so a replacement door has to be approved before it is ordered.
