Garage door repair in Davie, FL

Homes and garage doors in Davie

Davie, FL is a little younger than Plantation, but most of its homes have some years on them: most were built before 2000, and the median year is 1989.

For a garage door, that means two things. A door from the late 1980s or the 1990s may still run on its first springs, rollers and opener, or on replacement parts nobody wrote down. It may also carry no approval you can look up today. A door like that can still be repaired. Once it's replaced, though, the new one has to meet Broward's current wind rules, with a permit from the Town.

Ranch lots and horse country

West Davie keeps a rural streak, with ranch lots and horse properties. On those lots the garage may be one building among several, and its door can be wider or taller than the usual 16 by 7. Whatever the size, the springs are matched to that door's weight.

Gated communities and HOAs

Many Davie neighborhoods are gated or run by an HOA. In HOA communities, the association approves the style and color first; then we file the permit. State law also protects reinforced garage doors that meet the association's hurricane specifications.

Wind damage without a hurricane

Storm damage here doesn't need a named storm: strong winds and tornadoes have hit Davie too. If wind bends your door, knocks it off the track or leaves it stuck open, leave it as it is and stay clear of any snapped spring. That's a job for emergency garage door repair.

Help paying for a stronger door

My Safe Florida Home, the state program, may help pay to reinforce a garage door (grants up to $10,000). Homes must be first permitted before January 1, 2008 and valued at $700,000 or less, and the program is meant for owners with low or moderate income. The owner covers one third and the state two thirds. The program opens applications as the state funds it, so its site shows when you can apply. More on our page about impact garage doors.

Permits in Davie

A new garage door at a Davie address takes a permit from the Town of Davie Building Division. Since January 12, 2026, every application starts in the Town's Online Application Submittal (OAS), and the plans go up to ProjectDox. Paper isn't accepted.

The Town's walk-through list, open Wednesdays from 8 to 10:30 a.m. online or at the counter, includes garage doors. We prepare and file everything its Windows and Doors checklist asks for; one form needs your signature next to ours, notarized. As of November 2026, the fee is $70 for a job valued up to $7,500, plus surcharges, and 1.6% of the value above that.
