We strive to offer fast and reliable services that you can count on. Below are some of the commonly asked questions when it comes to overhead doors, garage door openers, and garage door repairs.

  • What materials are garage doors made of?

    Garage doors are made from steel, aluminum, fiberglass, and wood. 

  • What is the most popular garage door?

    Wood and steel doors are the most popular.

  • What makes steel doors a great choice?

    Steel doors are strong and secure. They are available in a variety of designs, some of which look like wood, but without the maintenance. 

  • Do garage doors need to be insulated?

    Insulating a garage door is important as it helps regulate the temperature in your garage. It keeps heat in during the winter and prevents heat from getting in during the summer, reducing the amount of energy it takes to keep your house comfortable. The amount of insulation is represented in its R-value.

  • What does the R-value mean?

    The R-value of the garage door indicates how well it is insulated. The higher the R-value, the better insulated your garage will be.

  • How do I clean my steel garage door?

    To clean your garage door, use a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse with clear water and allow to dry completely. Do not use a pressure washer on your garage door.

  • How often should my overhead door be serviced?

    Your overhead garage door probably gets used a lot. In order to make sure it is working properly, you should have your door serviced every year to extend the life of it.

  • How do I select the right door?

    Contact the team at our overhead door company. We can help guide you in choosing the right door for your home.

  • When should I replace a garage door with a new one?

    If your garage door is not working properly, your door becomes a hazard. 

  • Can I replace a section of my door, or do I need to replace the whole door?

    You may replace a section of your garage door depending on the damage involved to the garage door system.

  • How do I select the correct garage door opener?

    The size, height, width, thickness, and type of door will determine the type of garage door opener you'll need. 

  • How long will a garage door opener last?

    A garage door opener can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years depending on the model and usage.
