Our Story of Craftsmanship & Tradition
For over 30 years, Garage Door Earl has been the trusted name in garage door services for Earl and surrounding communities.

Family-Owned Since 1994
What started as a one-man operation in a small garage has grown into the most trusted garage door company in the region. Earl Thompson Sr. founded Garage Door Earl with a simple philosophy: treat every customer's home like it was his own.
Today, that tradition continues with our team of certified technicians who share the same commitment to quality craftsmanship and honest service. We proudly serve communities across North Carolina, including Shelby, Gastonia, Kings Mountain, and Lincolnton.
As a veteran-owned business, we bring discipline, attention to detail, and a service-first mentality to every job. Our 5-year warranty isn't just a promise—it's our commitment to standing behind our work.
