“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 Wilton Manors
Mid-century housing, water on every side, and permits that are filed and tracked online.
Most homes predate Florida’s 2002 code Wilton Manors has roughly 7,400 homes, and the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 American Community Survey puts the median at 1971, with 85% built before 2000 and 74% before 1980. Homes of that age were built long before the 2002 statewide Florida Building Code, so their original garage doors were built to older local rules.
Source46% are single-family houses Houses make up 46% of Wilton Manors homes in the same survey, with townhomes, condominiums and apartments filling out the rest. Coral Estates, Middle River Manor, Highland Estates and Tropical Manors are among the neighborhoods of single-family homes.

“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!!!”

Wilton Manors garage door questions
Do I need a permit to replace a garage door in Wilton Manors?
Yes. The City of Wilton Manors Community Development Services Department, through its Construction Services Division, issues the permit. Permits are submitted and tracked online through the city’s Citizenserve portal, and the contractor usually applies.
Does a new garage door in Wilton Manors have to be hurricane rated?
Yes. Wilton Manors is no exception to Broward County’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone: the new door needs an HVHZ approval, and the large-missile impact test is part of it.
My house was built around 1970. Is the original garage door a problem?
It may be. Around 1970 is typical here: the median Wilton Manors home dates from 1971, three decades before the 2002 code. We can service a door that still works; a replacement has to be HVHZ-approved.
Do you work in Coral Estates, Tropical Manors and Highland Estates?
Yes. We cover the whole city, from Coral Estates and Coral Point to Highland Estates, Tropical Manors and the Middle River neighborhoods.
