“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 West Park homes ask of a garage door
A 1961 median build year, four small neighborhoods, and permit services provided by an outside firm.
Median home dates from 1961 West Park’s median home dates from 1961, and about 93% of its roughly 4,900 homes were built before 2000, according to the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey. About 88% predate 1980, so any original garage door still hanging here went up long before Florida’s statewide code took effect in 2002.

They ask for product approvals for the garage door, doors and windows that meet the pressure and impact standards of the Florida Building Code in Broward County. Permitting runs in two steps: zoning approval first, then building review.

“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!!!”

West Park garage door questions
Do I need a permit to replace a garage door in West Park?
Yes. The City of West Park’s Building Department handles it through its online permit portal on Citizenserve, and its Windows and Doors checklist asks for two copies of the product’s Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance or Florida Product Approval.
Does a new garage door in West Park have to be hurricane rated?
Yes. West Park is inside Broward’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so a replacement door needs an HVHZ approval and has to pass the large-missile impact test, even if the old door never carried a rating.
My house was built in the 1960s. Does the original garage door still meet code?
Probably not to today’s standard. West Park’s median home dates from 1961 and about 88% were built before 1980, long before Florida’s 2002 building code. Repair is often possible, but a replacement has to meet today’s HVHZ rules.
Do you work in Carver Ranches, Lake Forest, Miami Gardens and Utopia?
Yes. Those four neighborhoods, merged into one city in 2005, make up all of West Park, and we cover every one, along with the State Road 7 and Hallandale Beach Boulevard corridors.
How far is West Park from your Fort Lauderdale base?
About 11 miles south, as the crow flies. We are open 24 hours, so call any time the door needs help.
