Our Story
More Than a Business.
A Metro Detroit Family. Gil's Garage Doors & Gates Detroit started with a simple belief: that homeowners deserve straightforward, honest service from people they can trust. What began as a one-truck operation in 2014 has grown into one of Metro Detroit's most recognized names in garage doors, gates, and fencing. We're a family-owned business, and that shows in everything we do. When you call Gil's, you're not dealing with a call center or a franchise. You're talking to someone who genuinely cares about getting it right—because this is our livelihood, our neighborhood, and our reputation on the line every single day. Our professionally trained technicians bring the same level of care and precision to every job, whether it's a spring replacement, a full custom gate installation, or a complete perimeter fencing solution. We believe in doing the job right the first time, standing behind our work, and treating your home with the respect it deserves.

2014 — The Beginning
Gil's Garage Doors & Gates Detroit is Founded
Gil's Garage Doors & Gates Detroit is founded as a sole-proprietor operation serving local communities. The first year focused entirely on garage door repairs—earning a reputation for showing up on time, doing the job right, and being honest about pricing. Word spread quickly through Troy, Royal Oak, and surrounding neighborhoods.
2016 — Expansion
Garage Door Installation Services Added
Growing demand led to partnerships with Wayne Dalton and Aluma Door. The team expanded to handle full door installations alongside repairs, serving both residential and light commercial clients.
2018 — Gate Division
Gate Repair & Installation Launched
Partnering with Econ Gates, Gil's expanded into automated and manual gate systems. This opened a whole new segment — swing, slide, and bi-fold gates for residential driveways and commercial properties.
2020 — Full Service
Fence Services & LiftMaster Partnership
Added fencing services to the lineup and became an authorized LiftMaster dealer. Homeowners could now get their entire perimeter—door, gate, and fence—handled by one trusted team. This was also the year we began serving a wider range of communities, from Novi to Bloomfield Hills and beyond.
