GDCORP now accepting Text SMS and MMS on main office phones

Garage Door Co Repair Pros is glad to announce that our main office landline phones can accept text messages (either SMS or MMS) as of 03/20/2017. Although we have had SMS text messaging only on one of our alternate lines for several years it required the use of a different phone number. That service provider would only accept SMS but not MMS (ie no pictures). We regularly get calls from customers who would like to send a picture of the part they need or door condition etc. Previously we would have to have them sent as email.

Our BLOG - blog.gdcorp.com moved to www.gdcorp.com/blog on 02/15/2016

Our Blog on garage doors and openers blog.gdcorp.com has been migrated to our primary website www.gdcorp.com/blog as of 2/15/2016. We have found that although having the blog on our dedicated server (Wordpress) was good for the past it was time to integrate it with our expanding primary website. This will allow users to search all content including literature, FAQ's, owners manuals, service bulletins, AND blog entries from one place.

Our website updated to HTML5/CSS3 with WCAG 2.0 standards

In an effort to support newer mobile devices and improve the user experience we have updated our website www.gdcorp.com to HTML5 / CSS3 with WCAG 2.0 standards. We have validated our pages against the latest standards as HTML5 is still evolving. Many of our detail pages were previously reformatted for mobile phones.

Garage Door Corp website becoming even more mobile friendly

We are glad to share our recent website changes to enhance usability on mobile devices. We are migrating many of our web pages to ones which are very mobile friendly - ie load fast, less graphics, formatted for narrower screens and W3C compliant for mobile 1.2. These pages will allow users to "click to call" from their Android or Apple mobile devices. All pages have a link to our desktop / full website and the desktop sites have a link at the top of the page to our mobile site.
