What Stockton asks of a garage door
Stockton's history and its open setting shape its garage doors.
Open wind
Wind across Rush Valley pushes on wide doors and loosens hardware.
Cold mornings
Cold winter mornings stiffen doors and break worn springs.
Stockton, Tooele County The first town in Utah Territory with surveyed streets, and the first with electric lights and a telephone.
Homes and garage doors in Stockton
Stockton's streets were laid out in the mining days, and many lots still have small detached garages or sheds built long before modern overhead doors. Some were converted from swing doors, which leaves odd-sized openings and framing that isn't quite plumb. Outside town, newer homes and shops sit on larger lots toward Rush Lake.
For an odd-sized opening, a door can often be ordered to fit, or the opening can be reframed to a standard size. We'll measure and give you both options. If an older door is drafty or damaged, a new insulated door can be a big improvement.
Local tip: If your old door is heavy to lift, the springs are worn. Don't keep forcing it. Have them replaced.
