A new garage door installation in Kendale Lakes typically runs $700 – $2,200 depending on size, material, and wind-rating requirements, and because almost every home here is a 1970s – 1980s CBS single-story with an attached garage, the work almost always involves Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone product approvals. We handle the full arc: same-day spring and cable repairs, opener diagnostics, and complete replacement installs matched to your existing brand. If your door is sagging, rusted through, or no longer opening after a storm, call (855) 382-3858 and we’ll tell you whether repair or replacement actually makes sense.
Why Kendale Lakes Homes Are Different
Kendale Lakes was built out fast in the 1970s and 1980s, and that era shapes almost every garage door job we do here. The houses are concrete block and stucco, single-story, with one- or two-car attached garages facing short, tight driveways. Rather than wood framing to anchor into, we’re bolting track and jamb hardware into cured CBS, which changes how a repair holds up. Original doors from that period are often single-panel steel or early sectional units that have been through forty-plus hurricane seasons, and the salt-laden air from Biscayne Bay works into hinges and springs year-round, not just after storms.
There’s also the driveway issue. Much of Kendale Lakes sits on sandy, limestone-heavy soil that shifts over decades. We routinely see concrete driveways that have sunk a half inch or more near the garage slab, throwing the door tracks out of plumb and causing rollers to bind or jump. Add in June-to-November thunderstorms that fling palm fronds and debris into doors, and the seasonal pattern here is predictable: rusted springs after heavy rain, realigned tracks after the ground shifts, and impact-rated door replacements for homeowners who don’t want to rebuild the garage opening after the next big wind event. This is a stricter building environment than nearly anywhere else in the country. Every installation we do in Kendale Lakes has to satisfy Miami-Dade product approval requirements for wind uplift and debris impact, which is why we don’t cut corners on hardware or anchoring.

Our Main Kendale Lakes Services
The two calls we get most from Kendale Lakes homeowners are full door repairs and opener failures, and each has its own dedicated page where we go deeper on diagnosis and pricing.
Garage Door Repair in Kendale Lakes
Most repair calls in Kendale Lakes come down to springs, cables, or track alignment. A broken torsion spring takes the door out of service completely, and because so many garages here are the primary entry point for the house, that’s a same-day job whenever possible. We carry spring and cable stock in the truck sized for the common 7- and 8-foot doors on CBS homes in this area, and we’ll re-anchor track hardware into concrete block rather than relying on whatever original fasteners are left. For the full breakdown of what we fix and what it costs, see Garage Door Repair in Kendale Lakes.
Garage Door Opener Repair in Kendale Lakes
Opener failures in Kendale Lakes follow a pattern: gears strip, logic boards corrode in the humidity, and safety sensors get knocked out of alignment by storm debris or the same settling that affects the tracks. We treat opener repair as its own specialty, which means we diagnose the motor, the travel limits, the sensors, and the remote system as one integrated unit rather than swapping parts blindly. If your LiftMaster or Genie starts reversing for no reason or ignores the wall button, we can usually trace it in one visit. See Garage Door Opener Repair in Kendale Lakes for the full picture.
Garage Door Installation in Kendale Lakes
Garage door installation in Kendale Lakes means working inside Miami-Dade’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which is a different job than a standard install anywhere else in Florida. Homes here are mostly 1970s – 1980s CBS construction, and the original doors are typically single-panel or lightweight sectional units that were never designed for the wind loads we now know this area can take. A new install in Kendale Lakes usually means swapping that old door for an impact-rated sectional system, with reinforced tracks and hardware anchored into concrete block, all matched to whichever brand you already know: Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton, or Genie openers. Because we’re a single-trade garage door company with installation capability in-house, the same team that has been repairing your existing door can measure, specify, and install the replacement when repair stops being cost-effective. That’s the full write-up on our Garage Door Installation service.
Garage Door Replacement
Signs you need it
The panel is rusted through, the door is bent from wind or impact, or the repair estimate on a 40-year-old single-panel unit is more than half the cost of a new hurricane-rated door.
What it costs in Kendale Lakes
Full replacement in Kendale Lakes ranges from $700 – $2,200 depending on door size, material gauge, insulation, and whether the opening needs new track and jamb hardware to meet current wind-load code.
How we do it
We measure the opening, confirm Miami-Dade product approval on the new door, remove the old unit and hardware, re-anchor new track into the CBS jamb, install and balance the door, and haul the old one away.
Garage Door Installation Service
Signs you need it
You’re building a new garage on a Kendale Lakes lot, or the existing door and track are so out of spec that re-anchoring and replacing components piece by piece no longer makes sense.
What it costs in Kendale Lakes
Installation labor and hardware run $250 – $550 for the opener portion and $700 – $2,200 for the door itself, with the total quoted before any work starts.
How we do it
We spec the door based on opening size and wind exposure, set and anchor the track, hang and balance the door, then mount and program the opener so the full system works as one unit.
Garage Door Seal Installation
Signs you need it
You can see daylight under the closed door, water pools at the garage slab after a Kendale Lakes afternoon storm, or the bottom rubber has cracked from UV and salt air.
What it costs in Kendale Lakes
Seal installation is part of most repair and install jobs here, and when done alone it falls within the $150 – $600 general garage door repair range for Kendale Lakes.
How we do it
We pull the old seal, clean the bottom channel, cut the new seal to width, and secure it so it compresses evenly across the concrete slab when the door closes.

How long does a garage door installation take in Kendale Lakes?

Yes, Miami-Dade County requires a permit for garage door replacement, and the product must carry High-Velocity Hurricane Zone approval. We handle the paperwork as part of the install.

Whatever the number, you’ll see it written out and agreed before we start, so there’s no surprise at the end of the job.

What Kendale Lakes Customers Say
"Spring snapped at six in the morning with my car sealed inside and me due at work. Somebody was here by eight thirty with the right spring on the truck. Door's quieter now than it was before it broke."
- Kelly Reed"Opener kept reversing halfway down. Turned out to be the safety sensors knocked out of alignment by a bicycle. He straightened them, wouldn't charge me for it, and just asked me to keep them in mind if I need real work later."
- Dale Bennett"Opener works, remotes are programmed, no complaints on the work. Took three days to get on the schedule though, so if you've got a car trapped inside, say so when you call."
