Robert Mehr opened his garage door company in 1983 and has been running it from Washington County ever since. Four decades of work in one market produces a particular kind of institutional knowledge — the shop at 173 S Warehouse Dr in Washington has seen every manufacturer cycle in and out, every drive system technology come and go, and has worked on garage doors in homes that are now being gutted and rebuilt by a second or third owner.
The Mehr family runs the business today, with Robert alongside Spenser and Ryan Mehr. That multi-generation continuity in a family-owned shop is unusual enough in Washington County's growth-paced market to be worth noting explicitly. Most competitors are national franchise shops or newer independents; Mehr's is neither.
The service menu covers the full residential and commercial range: installation, repair, replacement, maintenance, and 24-hour emergency service. On the commercial side, the company handles fire safety doors, high-speed doors, sectional steel doors, security grilles, and loading dock equipment — a depth that separates them from shops that work residential panels only. They serve St. George, Washington, Hurricane, Ivins, Santa Clara, Springdale, Cedar City, Kanab, and the surrounding communities.
