DDM Garage Doors' Website Goes Mobile! - DDM Garage Doors Blog

The human hand is becoming “smartphone shaped” these days. And garage door springs keep on breaking. Not everyone has a desktop or laptop in their garage in order to access DDM Garage Doors’ website. You and your family drive frequently. And shuttling between the garage and the den, one may lose some vital information in transit. Can you measure your torsion springs safely, learn about higher-cycle alternatives, select the best pair of springs for your needs, and complete your order with winding bars to do the job, all from a hand-held device?

With DDM, the answer is, “Yes. Indeed!”

Through the web artistry of DDM Web Services, we now feature a revamped website that is completely mobile-friendly. And to test it out, I went into my hypothetical garage with my iPhone to do some navigating.

First, I located the page. Then I scrolled down to see the “Our Services” section. The first item was a list of springs.

Then I identified my broken spring from the picture collage on the “Garage Door Springs” page.

Tapping the torsion spring picture, I then scrolled down to “Measuring Your Garage Door.”

Evident were the three ways of determining the correct torsion springs for my door.

I proceeded to the “How to Measure” portion.

Since I had two bays with identical doors, I measured the single broken spring on one of my doors.

Thumbing through the specs the site called for, I had a torsion spring choice in front of me, with some compatible springs listed below.

Only takes about Six Minutes

Not having navigated the mobile site previously, I was able to get to a purchase decision within about six minutes.

Now I’d never advocate rushing. The point is not speed, but concentration. Since everything I needed was on the screen, given a simple adjustment of visual distance, I did not need to leave the garage; everything I needed was on the phone.

Having our site on the phone or tablet also offers an additional advantage: while you have the device handy, you may snap a photo of your situation to have it ready should a picture be needed to clarify your repair situation.

Do you need other parts? They are equally accessible on DDM Garage Doors’ website, often with pictures. So you have a “one stop” option with our mobile version.

And putting technology and selection like this in your hands is another way our hard-working team serves you, our customer.
