The Garage Door Installation and Repair Business Offers In-Demand Services in a Growing Industry
Garage door franchises may not seem like the sexiest business opportunities out there, but they have a lot to offer. Recession-resistant garage door franchises have a vast customer base and are part of a growing industry. According to IBISWorld, the U.S. garage door installation industry was valued at $327.2 million in 2022.
Just think about all the garage doors out there. They are everywhere, and so is the need for repair and installation services. The U.S. Census American Housing Survey reveals that 80% of approximately 144 million owned houses and condos in the U.S. have a carport or garage.
Garage doors often serve as the main entrances to our homes, and homeowners rely on them to work on demand, whether that’s to leave for work in the morning, bring in the groceries, or take the kids to baseball practice. These hardworking entryways go up and down an estimated 1,500 times a year, according to Forbes. While we take them for granted when they are functioning properly, it can become an emergency situation when they fail. That’s where garage door franchises like ProLift Garage Doors come in.
ProLift Garage Doors
ProLift Garage Doors is a leader in the garage door repair and installation industry, consistently delivering top-quality services for residential and commercial clients. Each franchisee actively contributes to this mission by providing exceptional service, friendly customer support and a pleasant customer experience from initial contact to the final inspection. “The most appealing part of ProLift Garage Doors is that the business model is strategically oriented towards residential garage door repairs. It revolves around a service predicated on essential needs, which has consistently shown incredible resilience in the face of economic downturns. ProLift benefits from an inherent urgency. When a garage door malfunctions, potentially trapping a vehicle inside, the situation demands immediate attention,” says Will Faulkner, President of ProLift Garage Doors.
ProLift service technicians are fully equipped with an extensive array of tools and spare parts stocked within their service vehicles. This strategic advantage enables franchise owners to promptly address the consumer’s garage door issues and facilitate immediate payment during a single service call. “That operational efficiency is what allows our franchisees to scale their businesses, regardless of the economic challenges confronting our nation,“ Faulkner adds.
Franchisee Support
Under the umbrella of Premium Service Brands, franchise owners benefit from a comprehensive array of business resources, including a centralized contact center based in Chattanooga, Tenn., known as Insight Business Solutions, as well as a partnership with CRM software provider Service Titan and collaboration with CareerPlug for hiring and staffing needs. Franchisees profit from semi-absentee ownership and diverse service revenue streams.
ProLift Garage Doors prioritizes franchisee support and customer satisfaction. “Opening a new franchise with Premium Service Brands has been extremely positive for me. Starting a new business is never easy, but the combination of business coaching, step-by-step checklists, and plug-and-play vendor partnerships with preferred pricing helped me scale faster than I anticipated. Now, thanks to PSB’s growth, we will be able to effectively target clients who have worked with our sister franchises in order to reduce our client acquisition cost,” says ProLift franchisee Travis Nicolette.
