The typical home in Arlington was built in 1945, and nearly all were built before 1990. If the opener in one of those garages has never been replaced, check for the two small safety sensors near the floor. Openers made since 1993 must reverse when something is in the door's path (federal rule 16 CFR 1211). One without sensors is older than that and should be replaced.
Standard garage door springs are commonly rated for about 10,000 open-and-close cycles. At four cycles a day that is about seven years, so a door still on the springs it was installed with before 2019 has usually passed that rating.

"I highly recommend Eric, we had him fix our garage door few months ago, recently we were having some issues with it. I called Eric on the weekend and he immediately answered the phone, and came within an hour to our place to fix it. I was extremely impressed about how responsive and thorough professional Eric is."
"Eric was able to help me out on a super cold Monday holiday recently. He was able to diagnose my issue and get my garage door working again. Price was fair and he was very good at providing some insight into things to keep an eye on moving forward. I'll definitely keep him on speed dial for whatever I run into next."
"Our technician Eric came on time gave a more fair price then we were previously quoted from another company and did the job quickly and thoroughly and now our door is working better then ever (even got rid of that annoying clicking noise we used to have)."
Arlington is a dense urban-edge community of about 46,000 with housing dominated by 1900s-1940s construction. Arlington Heights has slightly newer 1920s-50s housing; East Arlington has the densest older stock; Brattle has higher-end older and renovated homes.
Arlington's old housing reality is similar to Waltham's. Small detached garages, often shared driveways, narrow openings, and tight headroom. Many Arlington garages were originally built for 1920s vehicles and require careful adaptation to support modern doors and openers. These older configurations need the right equipment and careful measurement.
Service across Arlington Heights, East Arlington, the Brattle neighborhood, and Arlington Center.
