Caldwell, Idaho
Garage Door Repair & Locksmith in Caldwell, ID
Caldwell has a lot of older homes around the College of Idaho and downtown, with new subdivisions growing on the edges of town.
The streets around the College of Idaho and Cleveland Boulevard have many older homes, often with a detached garage out back. Those doors have usually been repaired and repainted over the years, so the first step is working out what is actually holding them up.
The newer Caldwell subdivisions are a different job: modern steel doors where the original springs and openers are starting to wear out. We come out from Boise, and for a drive this long we plan the visit around having the parts on board.
Getting to Caldwell

On I-84. Out by Lake Lowell takes a little longer, so call early if you want a same day visit.

What we see in Caldwell
Side springs on older doors
Some older doors still lift on extension springs that run along the side tracks instead of one torsion spring above the door. If an extension spring breaks without a safety cable through it, it can whip across the garage. We fit safety cables, and can talk through switching to a torsion setup.
Newer homes on the edges of town
In the newer neighborhoods the work is the usual wear: snapped springs, an opener that has stopped lifting, remotes and keypads that need programming after a move.

Caldwell questions
- My old Caldwell garage door has springs along the sides. Is that safe?
- Those are extension springs. They're fine if each one has a safety cable running through it, which stops a broken spring from flying. If yours don't, have them added or the system replaced.
- Can you change the locks on a downtown business after someone leaves?
- Yes. A rekey is normally enough: the locks stay, the old keys stop working. If you want control over who opens which door, we can set up a master key system on the same visit.
- Do you come out to homes near Lake Lowell?
- Yes. It's a longer drive than central Caldwell, so call earlier in the day for a same day visit.
