Garage Door Stuck Open or Damaged? We’ll Secure It Immediately

Whether it’s due to weather, mechanical failure, vandalism, or a sudden accident, a garage door that can’t close or has suffered damage needs to be secured right away. It doesn’t take long for a vulnerable opening to become a target for theft, a risk for injury, or an entry point for pests and the elements.

That’s why 313 Garage Doors provides emergency temporary garage door security solutions 24/7, serving both residential and commercial clients across Metro Detroit. When your door can’t be repaired immediately, we ensure that your property is safe, sealed, and protected until full service can be completed.


When Do You Need Temporary Garage Door Security?

These situations often happen suddenly, and even if full repairs require a follow-up visit, temporary security can’t wait.

Common Scenarios Requiring Temporary Securement:

  • Garage door won’t close due to opener or spring failure

  • Vehicle impact causing the door to bend or jam

  • Storm damage leaves panels twisted or blown open

  • Vandalism or break-in attempts damaging locks or panels

  • Off-track or collapsed doors that can’t operate

  • Power outages disabling smart or electric openers

Whether it’s the middle of the night or early morning, we’ll come out and secure the garage quickly and professionally.


Why Temporary Garage Security Is Critical

Even if the door still appears mostly intact, just a small gap is enough to invite problems. Without immediate securement, you could face:

  • Theft or trespassing

  • Damage to property from rain, snow, or wind

  • Rodent or insect infestations

  • Dangerous access for pets or children

  • Further mechanical stress or door collapse

Our goal is to give you peace of mind right away—knowing your property is protected while you wait for permanent repairs.

  • Track bracing to hold a door in place
