We do not offer and have not previously offered franchises in any other line of business. We do not operate any businesses like the Franchised Business except that Premium Service Brands owns two garage door businesses that operate similar businesses to the Franchised Business. Pro-Lift Doors Unit Franchises are businesses that provide garage door installation, maintenance and repair services. The prototypical Pro-Lift Doors Unit Franchise offers a full range of garage door services for residences and “light commercial” buildings. Each Pro-Lift Doors business must operate in accordance with our “System”. The distinguishing characteristics of the System include among other things, uniform standards and procedures for business operations and management; procedures and strategies for marketing, advertising and promotions, signage, vehicle wrapping, inventory and materials; methods and techniques for installing garage doors; methods and techniques for inventory and cost control; the Marks; the Operations Manual; uniform standards, specifications and procedures; record keeping, accounting, billing, collections and account management; all of which are designed to enhance the business and managerial aspects of the garage door business.

Upfront Franchise Fees
Minimum: $70,000 Maximum: $70,000
Upfront franchise fees are the one-time payments required to secure rights to operate under an established brand, typically ranging from $20,000 to $100,000+ depending on brand value.
These fees grant access to proprietary business systems, training programs, intellectual property rights, and often territorial exclusivity—essentially purchasing the blueprint for a proven business model.
While separate from ongoing royalties, investors should evaluate these fees against expected returns, comparing fee-to-earnings ratios across opportunities and assessing how effectively franchisors reinvest these funds into system improvements.
Total Investment Costs
Minimum: $113,600 Maximum: $156,500
Ongoing Fees
Ongoing franchise fees, typically structured as royalties ranging from 4-8% of gross sales, represent the continuous payments franchisees make to maintain brand affiliation and support services.
These recurring fees fund the franchisor's operational assistance, marketing initiatives, technology updates, and continued brand development—creating a partnership where the franchisor's revenue grows alongside the franchisee's success. In addition to royalties, franchisees often contribute to national advertising funds (usually 1-3% of sales) and may incur technology fees, supply chain markups, or renewal fees depending on the franchise agreement.
Investors should carefully analyze these ongoing costs within their financial projections, as they directly impact profit margins and cash flow throughout the entire franchise relationship.
