Who We Are
Built on Experience, Integrity, and a Simple Promise
All Purpose Door Repair was founded on a commitment to honest work and dependable service—delivered right, every time.
From Concept To Reality
The company’s roots trace back to decades of hands-on industry experience. Its founder, John Glasser began working in the glass industry while still in high school, gaining early exposure with one of the nation’s largest glass manufacturers. After graduating in 1974, he continued full-time in the field and expanded his skills through apprenticeship with the Seattle Glaziers and Glassworkers Local Union #188, earning journeyman glazier certification and mastering the craft of commercial glazing.
By 1988, a growing demand for reliable commercial door service inspired the creation of All Purpose Door Repair. With limited resources but a strong work ethic, the company was built on a simple promise: “If you give me a chance to repair your doors and you’re not satisfied, you don’t have to pay me.” That promise earned trust and built a loyal customer base that continues to grow today.
Growth And Evolution
Within a year, John’s wife Lisa joined the business, bringing her background in customer service, management, and organization. Together, the company expanded alongside changing technologies, higher service standards, and an increasing number of commercial clients—while remaining true to its founding values of quality, integrity, and reliability.
In 2008, the company reached a major milestone with 20 successful years of service and their son Andy joining the family business making it a second-generation company. In 2021 Andy and his family moved and launched a commercial door company in Texas—continuing the tradition of an industry he grew up in, craftsmanship and service in a new region.
Built On Lasting Integrity
Today, All Purpose Door Repair continues to thrive under the leadership of new owner and longtime team member Jonathan Larson. With day-to-day operations guided by the same principles established from the beginning, the company remains focused on building lasting customer relationships, delivering skilled service at competitive rates, and upholding the integrity that has defined it since day one.

Testimonials
GOOD Based on 9 reviews Posted on Jennifer DavisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so very happy w/ the job that your company did on my commercial door. The technician, Ethan, that completed this job was professional, courteous and did a great job. He worked very hard to correct issues that arose from the unprofessional lock installation done by another company. He made things right again. I cannot say enough good things about All Purpose Door Repair and the job that they did to improve our entry door. Each staff member from the person who took my call, the estimator and the technician provided excellent customer service. I would highly recommend this company for all of your door and lock needs.Posted on Kevin DueckTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hands-down, this is the most knowledgeable door company out there. I own a restaurant and have to lease the space I'm in. We have large metal commercial doors that see a lot of use daily! Things can break, sometimes by careless employees or customers. We have called and used multiple door companies in the past, but only All Purpose Door Repair has been able to help us and explain our issues to us. I've noticed they are also the quickest to respond and resolve issues. If they can come up with a cost-effective work-around, they will. The last tech, Ethan, who visited our store during an emergency with our doors, was not only thorough, knowledgeable and able to fix our door, but he was also professional and friendly--sometimes a rare combination! Even one of their owners, Lisa, has taken the time to call me personally to explain my door situation and has recommended maintenance things we could do to prolong the life of the doors and minimize future issues. Keep these guys on your speed-dial!Posted on Alan CaiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lisa, Chris and their installation team are are true professionals. Lisa, the owner, worked closely with us to install larger-than-usual gates on our property with five commercial tenants (six jobs total). The lead time for the gates was out of their control, but once the gates arrived, they were able to install them in a timely matter and communication was fantastic. We've received a lot of compliments from both our tenants and neighbors, and we're definitely letting people know who did it for us.Posted on Jdmbro JTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best door company around, John is extremely knowledgeable and more than willing to help/assist you in anything you need. They can help with door repair or supply you with the parts you need if you want to install them yourself. John has answered calls for me on the weekends, after hours and even taken calls during meetings to help assist me. These guys are the best around call them with any needs and they will get it done. They also have an amazing team of installers that go above and beyond to ensure the job is done correctly and efficiently.Posted on Carly MallowTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Of the multiple companies I reached out to to get an estimate for a job we needed done to make our building more secure, All Purpose Door Repair was the only company to actually provide a bid and also make a suggestion on the best security option for our office. Lisa Glasser, one of the owners, was the one to suggest the product that we ended up choosing to install. The communication from the estimator, owner, scheduler and biller was fantastic. The installation went incredibly smooth as well. Highly recommend this company!Posted on JIN KIMTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
