Chesterland, the census-designated place at the center of Chester Township in northwestern Geauga County, counted 7,074 residents in 2020, and the township as a whole had 9,957. The heart of the community is the crossing of US Route 322 and State Route 306, and its commercial district spreads out from there in every direction.
Behind those corners are houses on generous lots, most with an attached garage and some with an extra outbuilding. Should a door here quit, from a spring snapping to an opener going silent, ring us whenever it happens for same-day service on most calls, often within 1 hour.
Carriage-house, raised-panel and modern steel doors from Clopay, Amarr and Wayne Dalton are all available, insulated versions too. See door installation. Belt-drive and wall-mount openers from Chamberlain and Genie are covered at opener installation.
Chester Township was established in 1816, and it is one of five Chester Townships in Ohio. A post office called Chester Cross Roads opened in 1826, and in 1898 its name changed to Chesterland, taken from Chester, Massachusetts. In the nineteenth century the township was home to the Geauga Seminary, a Free Will Baptist school that James A. Garfield attended.
The township borders Gates Mills to the west, Kirtland to the north, Munson Township to the east and Russell Township to the south. A door in service for twenty or thirty years often needs springs, rollers and a new opener rather than a replacement, and we say plainly which it is.
No county in northern Ohio is wetter than Geauga, where most places see over 42 inches of precipitation a year. Wet autumns, heavy snow and hard freezes all take a toll on the bottom seal and the lower hardware of a garage door.
When ice grips the door, loosen it before opening. If the door turns heavy, lurches or sits lower on one side, park it and phone us. A tune-up each fall catches worn parts early.
All of Chesterland belongs to West Geauga Local Schools, created in 1950 by combining the Chesterland and Russell township schools. West Geauga High School was built after that merger, West Geauga Middle School followed in 1962 and Robert C. Lindsey Elementary in 1965; Newbury High School merged into West Geauga High in 2020. A third elementary, Chester Elementary, served the community for many years before closing in the 1980s.
Chesterland is part of the Chagrin Valley area, the cities and villages along the Chagrin River. US 322 runs east toward Orwell and west to downtown Cleveland, while Route 306 heads north to Kirtland and south to Bainbridge. Chesterland also has its own county library branch, and former Major League outfielder and broadcaster Rick Manning calls it home.

Often, yes. Solid, unbent sections plus new springs and rollers can run for years more. We’ll price both routes for you.
Yes, from the Kirtland line to Russell Township.
In most cases, yes, provided the door is balanced. We check that first and fix any spring issue before installing the opener.
