Professional Garage Door in Portland, OR

Which garage door is best for me, as a homeowner?

There is no single best option that fits everyone’s home. Your garage door selection will depend on your needs, style preferences, energy efficiency, and location. We can help you select a garage door that will work best in these categories and your budget. From there, we can discuss the material – steel, aluminum, wood, or something else.

Should I choose a steel door or a wood door?

Both of these materials are great for garage doors as they both are aesthetically pleasing. Steel doors are strong, offering better security and energy efficiency. They’re also more affordable and require less maintenance. Wood doors have a natural beauty and warmth unmatched by other materials but tend to be priced higher due to the material and customization. They also expand and contract with Oregon’s changes in temperature and require additional maintenance to maintain their beauty.

How important is insulation in a garage door?

Insulation in your garage door prevents heat from leaving your home during the winter months. It also blocks heat from entering your garage in the summer. This all helps you save money on otherwise costly energy bills as you run your heat and air conditioning to keep your house comfortable. Additionally, an insulated garage door softens and dampens inside and outside noise and adds further strength to your door.

How much does a garage door cost?

Costs vary based on size, material, insulation type, customizations desired, and many other factors. We can help you find a door that meets your style and your budget. Contact us today for an estimate on your garage door.

Is there a warranty?

Most companies offer a 10-year warranty on garage door material. Our doors and openers have extended warranties, as well as a warranty on our service and repair work.
