Garage Door Installation & Repair in Southfield, Michigan
When a garage door quits on a cold morning off Twelve Mile or Northwestern Highway, Southfield homeowners need someone local who answers the phone. Doors of Pontiac has served Southfield and Oakland County since 1977 — family-owned and operated, not an out-of-state call center. Our showroom in Waterford Township sits a short drive up the road, so a real technician can be at your door in the Magnolia, Sheffield Estates, or Franklin Fairways neighborhoods, often the same day.
From the brick colonials near Lawrence Technological University to newer builds off Lahser Road, Southfield homes deserve garage doors that look sharp and survive Michigan winters. We install, repair, and tune everything — broken springs, worn cables, dead openers, off-track panels, and full replacements. Every visit starts with a free, no-pressure estimate and honest pricing, backed by 4.9 stars and more than 1,500 reviews from your Oakland County neighbors.
We're not a franchise passing through Southfield — we're the hometown Oakland County shop that's been fixing and installing garage doors since 1977. Family-owned and operated across three generations, we know these streets, from Evergreen Road to the Civic Center, and we treat every Southfield home like it belongs to a neighbor, because it usually does. That means free estimates, straight answers, factory-trained technicians, and licensed, insured work you can trust. When you call 248-666-9777, you reach real people at a real Waterford showroom — not a national dispatch queue three states away.

Our showroom is in Waterford Township, a short drive from Southfield, so we reach most Oakland County neighborhoods quickly and offer same-day service where possible. Call 248-666-9777 early and we'll do our best to fix your broken spring, opener, or off-track door the same day.

No. Every estimate is free, whether you're replacing a full door in the Magnolia area or pricing a repair off Lahser Road. We'll measure, explain your options in plain terms, and give honest pricing with no pressure. You only pay once you approve the work.
What garage door insulation is best for Michigan winters?
For Southfield homes, we usually recommend an insulated steel door with a solid R-value, which keeps garages warmer, cuts energy loss, and stands up to road salt and freeze-thaw cycles. We'll walk you through R-value options during your free estimate so you get the right door for our Oakland County climate.
Are you a local company or a national chain?
We're proudly local. Doors of Pontiac has been family-owned and operated in Oakland County since 1977 — not an out-of-state corporation with a call center. When Southfield neighbors call 248-666-9777, they reach real people at our Waterford showroom who know the area and stand behind every job.
Can you repair any garage door brand or just the ones you sell?
We repair virtually all makes and models, not just the Raynor, Amarr, C.H.I., Safe-Way, and Wayne Dalton doors we install. Our factory-trained techs carry common springs, cables, rollers, and Genie and LiftMaster opener parts, so most Southfield repairs are done in a single visit.
