Garage Door Services We Handle
One call covers the whole door. We handle everything from a squeaky roller to a full custom install, and we do it for homeowners, landlords and property managers across Hermitage. If you need 24/7 garage door service Hermitage Tennessee, we keep the line open for doors stuck open, stuck shut or hanging off the track.
Garage Door Repair
Most doors fail in one of five ways: a broken torsion spring, a frayed cable, worn rollers, a bent track or an opener that quit. We diagnose the real cause, not just the symptom, and repair it with parts that fit your door. Same-day garage door repair in Hermitage is our bread and butter.
View service 02Garage Door Installation
New door going in? We measure the opening, check the headroom and jambs, then set the track, hang the panels and balance the door by hand before the opener ever gets wired. Garage door installation and repair in Hermitage Tennessee, done to DASMA standards, start to finish in a single day on most homes.
View service 03New Garage Door Sales
We sell and install Clopay, Amarr and Wayne Dalton doors in steel, carriage house and glass styles. Bring us a photo of your house and we will match the color and window pattern. Every new door we sell comes with a written manufacturer warranty and our own labor warranty.
View service 04Garage Door Opener Repair
Opener not responding, remote not working, or the door reverses halfway up? Nine times out of ten it is a logic board, a safety sensor or a stripped gear. We test the travel limits and force settings, replace the bad part, and re-program your remotes and keypad before we leave.
View service 05Garage Door Opener Installation
We install belt-drive and chain-drive openers from LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie and Marantec. Belt drives run quieter, which matters if a bedroom sits over the garage. We wire the safety eyes, set the force limits, and hand you two programmed remotes plus a keypad code.
View service 06Garage Door Spring Repair
A snapped torsion spring sounds like a gunshot and leaves the door dead weight. Never force it open. We replace torsion and extension springs in matched pairs, wind them with proper spring winding bars, and cycle-test the door so it lifts with two fingers.
View service 07Garage Door Cable Repair
Galvanized steel cables fray, kink and pop off the drum. A cable that has jumped the drum can drop a door on a car or a person. We replace both cables as a set, re-seat the drums, and check the springs while we are in there.
View service 08Garage Door Roller Repair
Worn rollers are the number one cause of a door that shrieks like a banshee. We swap steel rollers for quiet nylon rollers, inspect every hinge, and lubricate the track. Most roller jobs take under an hour and cut the noise dramatically.
View service 09Garage Door Hinge Repair
Hinges crack at the bend points, especially on doors that run up and down ten times a day. A broken hinge lets a panel sag and rub the track. We replace the hinge, re-align the section, and torque the bolts so it stays put.
View service 10Garage Door Track Repair
A bent track makes the door drag, jump or jam. We straighten minor bends and replace any section that is too far gone, then re-level the vertical and horizontal track with a level and a tape measure so the door runs true.
View service 11Garage Door Panel Repair
Backed into the door again? Dented panels can often be replaced one at a time instead of buying a whole new door. We match the profile and color as close as the manufacturer allows and seal the joints so water stays out.
View service 12Garage Door Off-Track Repair
An off-track door is an emergency. Do not run the opener. We secure the door, reset the rollers into the track, replace any bent track or broken hinge, and re-balance the whole assembly before we let you use it again.
View service 13Garage Door Maintenance & Tune-Up
Twice-a-year tune-ups catch small problems before they strand you. We lubricate the springs, rollers and hinges, check the cable tension, test the safety reverse, and tighten every bolt. It is the cheapest insurance you can buy for a door.
View service 14Commercial Garage Door Repair
Roll-up and sectional doors at shops, warehouses and storage units around the Old Hickory Boulevard Corridor take a beating. We repair operators, springs, drums and bottom seals, and we work around your business hours so you are not shut down at the busiest time of day.
View service 15Custom Garage Doors
If you want a door that matches the house instead of the neighbors, we build custom orders in wood, steel and composite. Pick your panel style, window layout, color and hardware. We handle the measurement, the order and the install.
View service 16Carriage House Garage Doors
Carriage house doors bring the swing-out look without the swing-out hassle. They open overhead like a standard door but carry the cross-buck, strap-hinge styling that suits older homes near Andrew Jackson Way. Insulated cores are available.
View service 17Roll-Up Garage Doors
Roll-up doors coil above the opening, so they save ceiling space and suit shops, barns and storage bays. We install and service steel roll-ups in a range of gauges, with chain hoist or electric operator options.
View service 18Glass Garage Doors
Full-view glass doors in aluminum frames turn a garage into a studio, gym or entertaining space. We install tempered and laminated glass panels, and we seal them properly so they do not sweat in Tennessee humidity.
View service 19Garage Door Weather Sealing
If you can see daylight under the door, you are paying for it on your power bill. We install bottom weather seal, side jambs and top seals that block water, drafts, dirt and the occasional field mouse. Most seals last five to seven years.
View service 20Garage Door Insulation
An uninsulated door turns your garage into an oven in July and a freezer in January. We fit insulation panels or replace the door with a factory-insulated model. It cuts noise, holds heat, and makes the space usable year round.
View service 21Garage Door Remote & Keypad Programming
Lost a remote, bought a new one, or inherited a keypad with no code? We program LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman, Linear and Sommer remotes and keypads on site, and we can wipe old codes so the neighbor's opener stops working.

Why Hermitage Calls Us First
Plenty of companies will sell you a new door when a $200 spring repair would have done the job. We do not work that way. Here is what you actually get when you call Akins Garage Door Service.

Garage Door Questions, Answered
These are the questions we get on the phone every week. If yours is not here, call us at (615) 481-3508 and we will give you a straight answer.
Most new single-car doors installed in Hermitage run $1,450 to $2,600, and double doors run $2,200 to $4,800 depending on size, insulation and window options. That price includes the door, track, hardware, opener, remotes and haul-away of the old door. Call us with your opening size and we will give you a firm number.
The best company is the one that shows you the failed part, quotes the job before starting, and does not sell you a door when a repair will do. We are licensed and insured, we carry LiftMaster, Chamberlain and Genie parts on the truck, and we test the safety reverse on every door we touch. Ask your neighbors, then call us and compare.
Yes. A door stuck open overnight or a car trapped inside is an emergency, and we take those calls around the clock. Call (615) 481-3508 and we will get a technician headed your way. If the door is off the track or a spring has snapped, do not run the opener.
Check three things: licensing and insurance, whether they quote before starting, and whether they carry parts on the truck. A company that has to order a common spring will leave your door down for days. Ask what brands they stock and whether the technician is IDEA certified.
Typical repairs run $149 to $349 for a single failed component like a roller, hinge, sensor or remote. Spring and cable rebuilds run $329 to $649 because springs are replaced in matched pairs. Opener repairs usually land in the $180 to $400 range depending on the part.
