Streetsboro is a city in western Portage County, formed from most of the old Streetsboro Township, and it had 17,260 residents at the 2020 census. They live in 7,350 households in a city of 7,678 housing units, where only 0.7% of owner homes stood empty. About 83.6% of residents live in urban areas and 16.4% in rural ones, so the city still has rural edges beyond its busy State Route 14 and Turnpike corridors.
For garage doors, that means condos and townhomes, 1960s ranches, newer subdivision houses and plenty of commercial buildings. We repair and replace doors and openers on all of them with same-day service on most calls, often within 1 hour. We're available 24/7.
For a newer look, a steel door with a wood-grain finish or a row of windows makes a big difference on a 1970s ranch. We install doors from Clopay, Amarr and Wayne Dalton, with insulated cores to keep a heated or attached garage comfortable. See door installation.
Our openers come from LiftMaster, Chamberlain and Genie. Belt drives run nearly silent, a plus under a bedroom; see opener installation.
State Route 303 runs through commercial as well as residential property on its way across Streetsboro, and the businesses along it and near the Turnpike depend on heavy sectional overhead doors. Our commercial door repair crews also fix commercial door operators so a stuck dock door doesn't stop a shipment.
The census tells Streetsboro's story in numbers. The township counted 672 people in 1900 and 1,107 in 1950. Then the population took off: 5,767 residents in 1960, 7,966 in 1970, 12,311 in 2000 and 16,028 in 2010. In 1966 a new freeway from Bedford to Interstate 80 in Streetsboro opened, signed as both I-80 and State Route 14, and in 1971 that stretch became Interstate 480. Today Ohio Turnpike exit 187, numbered 13 under the old system, is where I-480 and State Route 14 meet the Turnpike.
State Route 303 comes in from Hudson past homes and businesses, runs together with Route 14 as far as State Route 43, and then heads east toward Shalersville through farmland and woodland. PARTA's Cleveland Express bus also passes through Streetsboro on its way to Twinsburg and Maple Heights. Today the city has houses from every decade since the 1960s, alongside condos, townhomes and newer subdivisions.
That boom gives the city a lot of homes from the 1960s and 70s and just as many from the decades since. The first group often has doors and openers that have been patched for years, and the second group is now reaching the age when original springs and opener gears wear out. Either way we fix the failed part and look over springs, cables and rollers before we leave.
When the temperature falls below zero, steel contracts, grease thickens and a spring that is near the end of its cycles finally lets go. That is why the first cold week of winter is so often when a Streetsboro door refuses to open with the car inside.
Leave it closed, and never try to hoist a door whose spring has snapped. Call us instead. A pre-winter tune-up spots worn springs and cables before the cold does.
Most of the city is served by the Streetsboro City School District, with a small part in the Kent City School District. Streetsboro Elementary takes preschool through third grade, Henry Defer Intermediate School has grades four and five, Streetsboro Middle School has grades six through eight, and Streetsboro High School sits along State Route 14. The new high school building held its first classes in January 2017. All the other schools share a 116-acre central campus with Streetsboro City Park, along with the Pierce Streetsboro Library, a branch of the Portage County District Library that opened in 1988.
The high school runs its own radio station, WSTB 88.9 FM, with alternative rock Monday through Saturday and oldies on Sunday. The Streetsboro branch is one of six in the Portage County Library District.

Yes. We repair single and double doors on attached units and can coordinate with your association if a replacement has to match.
Yes. We repair commercial sectional doors, springs and operators on warehouses and shops as well as homes.
Often a worn roller or a track that has shifted, sometimes the opener’s travel limits. We diagnose it on the spot.
