ProLift Garage Doors, 533 Carrington Blvd. in Lenoir City, is expanding its services into Knox County.

“We provide garage door and opener repair, service and sales/new installation for all makes and models,” said Blake Shelton, co-owner. “We offer ProLift 270 and 370 openers that are branded and manufactured by Marantec.

“We sell Amarr brand doors and have a feature on our website that lets you design your door and superimpose it over a picture of your house,” he added.

The company also repairs doors.

“We guarantee our work, and doors and openers come with manufacturer warranties,” Shelton said.

“Our original plan was to purchase the Knoxville territory first then expand out, but it wasn’t available,” he added. “We were excited to find out we could purchase it early last year and began the process to complete the deal.
