Where Richards-Wilcox shows up in the GTA
Shop-house hybrids in industrial-adjacent neighbourhoods are common RW service contexts.
Duty cycle first. A quiet house door and a shipping bay are not the same repair.
Repair vs replace
Bent panels plus worn tracks on high-cycle doors often justify planned replacement downtime.
We do not push replacement to hit a quota. If a panel match or spring set solves it, that is the recommendation.
