What Should You Look For in a New Garage Door

 In blog, Uncategorized

A good garage can easily last you decades and maybe even last a whole lifetime. Therefore, it makes sense to go the extra mile and spend a little when you are getting a new garage door to avoid the bad quality cheap ones. That being said, let’s look at factors you should consider when you are buying a new garage door.

Invest in a reliable garage door now.

Try as hard as you can to avoid buying a garage door online as it only asks for trouble. Every garage is unique, and a reliable salesperson will ask you the right questions, such as the opening size and shape, side clearance, and headroom of the garage, before recommending a new garage door. After that, you can be confident that you have covered all the bases with the help of an expert.  A new garage door that is 16 feet tall will cost you anywhere from $800 to $8,000.

Beware of Wooden Doors

While natural wooden doors look great, they require a lot of maintenance to keep them looking great for a long time. It is extremely time-consuming to maintain them. However, you can invest in embossed steel with a faux wood-grain finish, which would typically cost you less than $1000. They look almost the same as wooden doors from a distance and offer great longevity.

Don’t Install Your Own Door

You might think you can save a few hundred dollars by installing the garage door yourself, but this isn’t the right DIY project for you to start with. There are several parts that will potentially take you a full day to put together. Having help from a professional garage door expert would save you time and nuisance.
