“I can't say enough good things about Eric’s United Garage Door Service! Our garage door spring broke unexpectedly, and when I called on a Saturday, Eric personally answered the phone. He came out on Sunday to assess the problem and was able to replace the spring the very same day. Eric was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and great to work with. It's rare these days to find someone who provides this level of customer service, especially over a weekend. He explained everything clearly, completed the repair quickly, and had our garage door working perfectly again. If you're looking for honest, reliable, and prompt garage door service, I highly recommend Eric’s United Garage Door Service. Thank you for the outstanding service!”

What garage doors face in Sunrise
A golf village that grew west to the Everglades, older houses beside newer ones, and a permit process built around an online portal.
Most homes predate Florida’s 2002 code According to the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey, the median Sunrise home dates from 1983, with 86% of roughly 40,000 homes built before 2000 and 42% before 1980. That dates most original garage doors well before 2002, when the first statewide Florida Building Code replaced local building codes.
Source37% are single-family houses About 37% of Sunrise homes are single-family houses in the same survey, with townhomes, condominiums and apartments filling out most of the rest. Sunrise Golf Village, Welleby, Springtree and Savannah are among the neighborhoods that are mostly houses.
SourceInland, at the edge of the Everglades Sunrise is well inland, and the city says its boundaries reach the Everglades. Staying inland does not relax the wind rules: the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone covers all of Broward County, so a replacement door here follows the same rules as one at the beach.

Applications can be filed through its 24/7 online Self-Service Portal, which also takes e-Plan Review submittals of permit applications and plans.

“Outstanding service and experience! Eric was very friendly, knowledgeable, and honest. He texted prior to arrival and replaced my garage door spring in only a few minutes. Initially, we thought the cables would also need to be replaced. Upon inspection he said they were fine. This saved me from paying additional. Finding a dependable, honest professional is priceless! Highly recommend!”
“Eric was awesome! Quickly diagnosed and repaired two broken garage door openers. Highly recommended!!!”

Sunrise garage door questions
Do I need a permit to replace a garage door in Sunrise?
Yes. The City of Sunrise Building Division, part of Community Development, issues the permit. Applications can be filed online through the city’s Self-Service Portal, and the installing contractor normally submits it.
Does a new garage door in Sunrise have to be hurricane rated?
Yes, even this far from the coast. Sunrise is in Broward County, where the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone applies everywhere, so the door you install has to carry an HVHZ approval, large-missile impact test included.
My house was built in the 1980s. Is the original garage door a problem?
Possibly. The median Sunrise home dates from 1983, about two decades before the 2002 code, so an original door was never built to it. If yours still works we can service it; if it needs replacing, the new door has to be HVHZ-approved.
Do you work in Welleby, Springtree and Sunrise Golf Village?
Yes. We cover the whole city, from Sunrise Golf Village and Welleby to Springtree, Savannah, New River Estates and Sunrise Lakes.
