Pasadena Project Spotlight
Curated
The Architectural Shift
For this San Rafael estate, we replaced two 25-year-old single-layer steel doors with custom carriage-style composite overlays. The project required precise color matching to the home's historic trim and the installation of a whisper-quiet side-mount opener to maximize ceiling space.
"Our curb appeal was transformed in a single day. The technical knowledge and attention to the architectural era of our home were second to none." β Sarah J., Pasadena Resident

The Residential Audit Protocol
How we certify a flawless residential installation. We execute this technical audit on every new home project in Pasadena.
Structural Calibration
-
Track Square Verification Using digital laser levels, we verify the vertical and horizontal tracks are within 1/16th of an inch, preventing long-term cable wear and roller friction.
-
Torsion Spring Torque Map We calibrate the spring tension based on the specific door weight (e.g., 250lbs custom wood), ensuring the door remains perfectly balanced for manual operation.
Code Compliance Handshake
-
SB-969 Battery Validation We physically pull the AC power and verify the door can execute a 3-cycle backup run, satisfying California's mandatory emergency egress law.
-
UL 325 Obstruction Sweep We perform a controlled pressure test on the motorβs sensitivity settings to ensure immediate reversal upon hitting an object, minimizing liability.
