Robert Bell's village sits on the Clear Fork of the Mohican River in southern Richland County, and 1,963 people lived there in 2020. Ten years earlier the count was 826 households in 882 housing units; just over half of those households, 51.0%, were married couples, and the median resident was 42.8 years old. A slice of the village reaches into northern Jefferson Township, which had 4,905 people of its own.
Bellville garages run from old detached buildings on the side streets to attached doors on newer lots. Whichever you have, phone us when it quits. Our promise is same-day service on most calls, often within 1 hour. We're available 24/7.
When patching no longer makes sense, Wayne Dalton, Clopay and Amarr all build doors that suit a village house, and we hang the new one, set its springs and cart the old panels away (our installation page). Openers are LiftMaster or Chamberlain units with a wall button and two remotes; more on openers.
The first settlers, James McCluer and Jonathan Oldfield, arrived in 1808 and built Bellville's first cabin on what is now Ankneytown Road. McCluer owned the land, but it was Robert Bell who founded the village: McCluer sold him the land in 1815, and Bell laid out Main Street, Ogle Street and Durbin Road and 48 lots. The first post office came in 1824, and the first church, a Methodist Episcopal church organized by Bell and preacher William Oldfield, was built in 1834, although services had been held since 1814.
Commerce picked up in the 1870s. The town hall went up in 1877, and the bandstand at the heart of the village was built in 1879. The B&O railroad ran along what is now the bike trail. Bellville even had a small gold rush, after James C. Lee found gold on Dead Man's Run, though little more was ever discovered. The census counted 720 people in 1870 and 1,355 in 1950, and the village has grown slowly since, so its garages range from old detached ones to modern attached doors.
Richland County was named for its fertile soil, and the valley that holds Bellville collects cold air on still winter nights. By morning a door's rubber seal can be frozen to the concrete, and an opener that tries to lift it anyway can strip a gear or crease the top panel.
Tap the seal loose first. Better still, have the door looked over in autumn: our seasonal adjustment visit covers spring tension, cable wear and the auto-reverse test.
Bellville is in the Clear Fork Valley Local School District. Bellville Elementary School is in the village, and Clear Fork Middle School and Clear Fork High School are just outside it. The village has a branch of the Mansfield-Richland County Public Library, and the Richland B&O Bike Trail passes through Bellville on the old railroad line. Jefferson Township, which holds part of the village, counted 4,905 people in 2020.
Excellent, quick, and professional service! I highly recommend.

An electrician can add an outlet on the ceiling first. Once there is power, we mount the rail, wire the photo-eyes and set the travel limits.
It is. Addresses in the township are covered just like homes near the bandstand, with same-day service on most calls.
We also cover:
Main Street, Ogle Street or out on Ankneytown Road, ring us and we will be on our way.
