Company History

Hamon Overhead Door is a garage door installation and service company, serving residential, commercial, and industrial clients throughout San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties. In March of 1966, Tom Triol set out to offer sophisticated and unique garage doors in Paso Robles, CA – a product that he thought was otherwise a bit dull. Out of this idea came the name Hamon Overhead Door Company, Inc., an organization with unlimited potential for growth. For over 55 years, Hamon Overhead Door Company, Inc., has continued to honor and build upon its legacy with new innovations. We brought the designer carriage house door to the central coast; we were the first to offer Cookson rolling steel doors to our market; and we carried the innovative, high speed vinyl door over to our area.

Raising the Standard

Our vast product selection, expert service technicians, and constant innovations have allowed us to be recognized as the premier garage door dealer on the central coast. We focus on the delivery, service, and installation of residential, commercial, and industrial doors. We’re always willing to take on a job, and always confident in our ability to produce exceptional results. Hamon Overhead Door’s relationship with our clients is as important to us as the quality of our service. Our product showrooms are a great example; we offer residential clients a step-by-step process for finding the perfect door and having it professionally installed. Hamon Overhead Door is raising the standard with everything we do.
