By Next Door Garage Door Service | Commercial Garage Door Repair & Replacement in Tacoma

When most people think of garage door repair, they picture a single residential door on a quiet suburban street. But here at Next Door Garage Door Service, we handle projects of all sizes — and recently, we had the privilege of completing one of our largest commercial jobs to date: replacing over 10 garage doors at Volvo’s facility right here in Tacoma, Washington.

This was a big one, and we want to share how it went.

How the Project Came About

We got a call from the facilities management team at Volvo’s Tacoma location. They were dealing with aging, worn-out garage doors across their service and operations area — doors that were showing their age, operating unreliably, and frankly posing a safety concern for their team. They needed someone who could handle a large-scale replacement without disrupting their day-to-day operations.

That’s exactly the kind of challenge we love.

After an initial walkthrough and consultation, we mapped out a full replacement plan for more than 10 commercial-grade garage doors throughout the facility. We coordinated our schedule around Volvo’s operations so we could work efficiently without causing unnecessary downtime or disruptions to their workflow.

The Scope of Work

This wasn’t a small patch job. We’re talking about a complete overhaul of their garage door systems — from the panels and tracks to the springs, hardware, and openers. Each door had to meet strict commercial durability standards, and we made sure every unit we installed was built to handle the kind of heavy, daily use that a busy automotive facility demands.

A few highlights from the project:

• Full removal and disposal of all old doors and hardware
• Installation of heavy-duty commercial garage doors rated for high-cycle use
• New tracks, springs, and operators on every unit
• Safety inspections and testing on each door upon completion
• Minimal disruption to Volvo’s operations throughout the entire project

Our crew worked methodically, moving from bay to bay, keeping the site clean and organized throughout. The Volvo team was fantastic to work with — professional, communicative, and genuinely appreciative of the work we were doing.

Why Commercial Garage Door Replacement in Tacoma Matters

If you run a commercial or industrial facility in the Tacoma, WA area, your garage doors are not just an entry point — they’re a critical part of your daily operations. A malfunctioning or outdated door can slow down your team, create security vulnerabilities, and even lead to workplace injuries.

That’s why we take commercial projects like this one so seriously. Whether it’s one door or fifteen, we approach every job with the same level of care and professionalism.

What We Learned From This Project

Every large project teaches us something. With this job at Volvo’s Tacoma facility, the biggest takeaway was the importance of planning and communication. Replacing more than 10 doors across an active facility requires tight coordination — making sure the right materials are on-site, the right crew is available, and the client is always in the loop.

We’re proud to say we delivered on time, within scope, and to the complete satisfaction of the Volvo facilities team.
