Holmes Spring Manufacturing Moved

The family owned and operated company manufactures and sells high quality commercial and residential garage door springs throughout the world has moved locations.

Holmes Spring Manufacturing, a company that offers top quality garage door springs and components to the garage door industry, is proud to announce that they have moved to a new location in Mesa, Arizona. In celebration of this event, Holmes Manufacturing will host an open house at their Mesa, Arizona location on April 14th, 2016.

Holmes Manufacturing Company was started in 1920 by the Holmes brothers. They became counter balance experts in the retractable bed industry. In the 30’s the Holmes brothers entered the garage door industry. Thanks to the Holmes brothers they developed a pivot overhead door jamb hardware that has been built on ever since. The Holmes brand has stayed tried and true. Holmes has since been acquired through the years and has continued to holds its name. Today, Industrial Door Company, d.b.a. Holmes Spring Manufacturing was acquired in 2007.

The Minneapolis based spring company has come a long way since it was first started by Gerry Sizer out of his home in 1974. Over the years, the company has grown significantly, thanks to the Sizer family’s hard work and dedication. Today Gerry’s children, Jodi Boldenow and Jeremy Sizer, have stepped into the roles of second generation owners. The family is proud to stand behind each and every spring they manufacture and sell—from large industrial springs for dock door applications to residential garage door springs.

The celebrated business has accomplished a lot over the past four decades. The company now employs 162 employees throughout the nation. They have been voted a Top Family Business by Twin Cities Business Magazine and voted a Top Work Place by the Minneapolis Star and Tribune. “We are uniquely positioned to provide the largest garage door manufacturers and local dealers a allinclusive product with locations in Minnesota, Ohio and Arizona,” noted Boldenow. Unlike other garage door spring manufacturers, 17 of the top 25 garage door manufacturers trust
Holmes Spring and sister companies for their spring needs. “As you browse our website, we hope you will begin to think differently about garage doors.
