Garage door installation in Hollywood runs $700 – $2,200 for a standard residential door, with most hillside homes falling between $1,200 and $1,800 once you factor in custom sizing and access work. The biggest variable here isn’t the door itself: it’s the terrain. Steep driveways, street-set garages with zero apron, and 1920s openings that were never square to begin with demand measured, patient work rather than a drop-in replacement. Onyx Garage Door Service has served Hollywood since 2014, and we’re the company that shows up knowing your street before we even park the truck. Call (877) 588-8251 for a free estimate.
Why Hollywood Homes Are Different
Hollywood’s housing stock splits into two worlds. Below Franklin, you have 1920s and 1930s Spanish Revival bungalows and courtyard apartments, many with detached garages tucked behind the main house or set into a rear alley. Above Franklin and into the hills, you get a different animal entirely: narrow lanes like Beachwood Drive, Cahuenga Pass switchbacks, and the tight streets below the Hollywood Sign where a garage door can sit flush against the road with no driveway at all. In those spots, we’ve had technicians work from ladders on the slope while blocking one lane with cones, because there’s simply nowhere else to stand.
Climate matters too. Hollywood’s dry, sunny weather beats down on south- and west-facing doors, warping wood panels and fading finishes faster than homeowners expect. When Santa Ana winds kick up in fall, the dust gets into tracks and hinges and turns a quiet door into a grinder within weeks. Older wood-frame doors and original hardware are common across the flats, and retrofit work often has to fit non-standard openings in historic structures where nothing is plumb. None of this is a problem if you know it’s coming. We do.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Hollywood Services
Most Hollywood calls start with one of two problems: a door that won’t move, or an opener that’s doing something it shouldn’t. Both deserve a technician who knows the difference between a worn spring and a misaligned sensor, and who won’t sell you a full replacement because the cheap fix took longer to explain.
Garage Door Repair in Hollywood
Hollywood doors fail in predictable ways: torsion springs snap in the cold snap after a hot spell, cables fray on doors that face the afternoon sun, and rollers give out from the dust that Santa Ana winds force into the tracks. Hillside garages add a second layer, because a door that’s slightly out of level on a sloped lot wears its hardware unevenly and fails sooner. We diagnose on-site, carry springs and cables for most brands on the truck, and quote the full price before any work begins. See Garage Door Repair in Hollywood for the full breakdown.
Garage Door Opener Repair in Hollywood
When a LiftMaster or Genie opener starts reversing mid-cycle, grinding, or ignoring the remote, the cause is usually a force setting, a stripped gear, or a sensor knocked out of alignment by one too many parked cars in a tight Hollywood garage. We open the unit, test it under load, and replace only what’s actually broken. If the opener is beyond saving, we’ll tell you honestly and quote an installation that fits your existing door, not whatever’s easiest to stock. See Garage Door Opener Repair in Hollywood for details on common failures and costs.

Garage Door Installation in Hollywood
Garage door installation in Hollywood means fitting a precise, balanced door into an opening that was probably framed before drywall existed. The dry climate warps untreated wood, the hillside lots mean many garages sit on slopes where standard track geometry needs adjustment, and historic bungalows often have openings that are 7’10” or 8’2″ instead of the modern 7’0″ or 8’0″ standard. We measure, we custom-order or field-adjust, and we hang the door so it runs true from day one. If you’re weighing a full replacement, our Garage Door Installation service covers every style, material, and brand we support.
Garage Door Replacement
Signs you need it
The door sags when halfway open, panels are cracked or rotting, or you’re patching the same section for the third time.
What it costs in Hollywood
A full garage door replacement in Hollywood runs $700 – $2,200, with panel replacement alone at $250 – $500 per panel.
How we do it
We measure the opening in three places (top, middle, bottom), confirm the track and spring match the new door’s weight, then remove the old door, install the new one, and balance it so it holds at any position.
Garage Door Installation Service
Signs you need it
You’re building new, the old door is beyond repair, or you want an upgrade to an insulated door that actually seals the garage.
What it costs in Hollywood
New door installation in Hollywood costs $700 – $2,200, and we always confirm a written price before the work starts.
How we do it
We spec the right door for your exposure and slope, pull permits when the city requires them, install the door, track, springs, and hardware, then test the full cycle with you watching.
Commercial Garage Door Installation
Signs you need it
Your apartment building, restaurant, or studio garage needs a door that cycles dozens of times a day without failing.
What it costs in Hollywood
Commercial installation in Hollywood starts with a free site measure, and the $700 – $2,200 range applies to standard commercial doors before custom specs.
How we do it
We assess your daily cycle count, specify springs rated for that duty, install heavy-gauge track, and set the opener limits so the door never strains itself.
Garage Door Installation Contractors
Signs you need it
You’re a contractor or homeowner who’s been burned by a crew that showed up with the wrong door or left the old one in your driveway.
What it costs in Hollywood
Contractor-grade installation in Hollywood follows the same $700 – $2,200 range, with custom hillside work quoted on-site.
How we do it
We treat your project like our own house: we bring the right door the first time, level it on shims or a sloped pad, and leave the site clean before we ring the bell.
Garage Door Seal Installation
Signs you need it
Daylight shows under the door, dust coats everything in the garage after a Santa Ana, or the old seal is cracked and peeling.
What it costs in Hollywood
Seal installation in Hollywood runs $110 – $220, and it’s one of the fastest upgrades we do.
How we do it
We pull the old seal, clean the channel, cut the new bulb or T-seal to your exact width, and seat it so it closes tight against the concrete.
What Garage Door Installation Costs in Hollywood
| Item | Typical range in Hollywood |
|---|---|
| New door installation | $700 – $2,200 |
| Panel replacement | $250 – $500 |
| Garage door seal installation | $110 – $220 |
Can you install a garage door on a sloped Hollywood lot?
Yes. We set the horizontal tracks with a slight slope to match the garage floor and use longer vertical track on the low side, so the door seals correctly and rolls smoothly even when the pad is far from level.
Do I need a permit for garage door installation in Hollywood?
Sometimes. Retrofitting an existing opening with a new door of the same size rarely needs a permit, but widening an opening or structural work does. We’ll tell you which applies on-site, and handle paperwork if required. Call (877) 588-8251 to schedule a measure.
Brands We Service in Hollywood
We work on LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Craftsman, Raynor, and the rest of the major residential brands. We stock common springs, cables, rollers, and opener gears locally, so most Hollywood repairs finish the same day rather than waiting on a parts shipment. Details at our brands.

FAQs About Garage Door Company in Hollywood
We’re usually on-site within a few hours for repair calls across Hollywood. Hillside addresses around Beachwood Canyon or Whitley Heights may take slightly longer depending on traffic on Highland Avenue, but we’ll give you a real ETA when you call, not a vague window.
Yes. We regularly work on 1920s and 1930s bungalows and Spanish Revival homes where the garage opening was framed by hand and nothing is standard. We custom-order or field-trim doors to fit, and we match hardware to the period where that matters to you.
Some hillside HOAs and historic districts do have design guidelines covering door material, color, and window pattern. We’ve installed doors that satisfy those rules, and we’ll ask about your HOA’s requirements when we quote so you don’t get a violation notice after the job.

What Hollywood Customers Say
"Spring snapped at six in the morning with my car sealed inside and me due at work. Somebody was here by eight thirty with the right spring on the truck. Door's quieter now than it was before it broke."
— Luis Mendoza"Door installed in about four hours, old one hauled away, and he stayed to program both cars and the wall panel before he left."
— Steven Lin"The old chain drive sounded like a freight train through the bedroom above the garage. Went with the belt drive they recommended and now I genuinely cannot hear it open from upstairs."
— Jamal Nash
