What We Supply at Wholesale
Residential Garage Doors
Complete line of steel, wood, and fiberglass residential garage doors from our partner brands: Hormann, North Central Door Company (our exclusive Chicagoland dealer), Clopay, Oxford Carriage Door, and Carriage House Door. We stock raised panel designs, flush models, carriage house styles, modern and contemporary doors, woodgrain finishes, and custom designs. Available in insulated and non-insulated options to match any home and any budget.
Commercial Garage Doors
Overhead-sectional doors, for warehouses, loading docks, auto shops, retail storefronts, municipal facilities, and fire departments. We handle everything from standard commercial overhead doors to custom widths and heights including oversized doors for condo garages. We offer standard configurations as well as high lift, vertical lift, doors with walk through man doors, and high cycle springs.
Garage Door Openers
Authorized LiftMaster dealer — full residential and commercial operator lineup at contractor pricing. Belt drive systems, chain drive operators, wall-mount models, jackshaft openers for torsion-less installations, and smart/Wi-Fi enabled units with myQ home integration and remote control access.
Parts & Hardware
Springs (torsion and extension), tracks (vertical and horizontal), rollers (steel and nylon), cables, hinges, struts, brackets, bottom seals, weatherstripping, remotes, keypads, safety sensors, and every small component in between. We stock the parts most contractors need on every job.
Brands We Stock
Forest doesn’t carry every brand — we carry the ones we’d put on our own trucks. After 80 years of installing, servicing, and warrantying garage doors across Chicagoland, we distribute the manufacturers whose sections, hardware, and support hold up job after job. Contractor pricing applies across every line below.
North Central Door Company — Exclusive Chicagoland Dealer
Forest is the exclusive Chicagoland dealer for North Central Door, whose U.S.-made steel sections are engineered for the exact conditions your customers’ doors face here: sub-zero winters, humid summers, and everything in between. NCDC sections stack cleanly and consistently, which means faster installs and fewer callbacks. We keep sections in stock for same-day pickup or next-day delivery, and we can pull your order before you arrive.
Hörmann
One of the world’s largest door manufacturers, with U.S.-manufactured steel and wood sectional doors across a wide range of models and price points. We stock and order the full residential lineup and can provide spec sheets, R-value data, and sizing guidance for any Hörmann product you’re quoting.
Clopay
We carry Clopay’s premium collections — the high-end lines your design-conscious clients ask for by name, including faux-wood and modern steel series. If you’re bidding a job that specs Clopay, we can confirm availability, pricing, and lead times with one call.
Oxford Carriage Door
Family-owned Canadian manufacturer of real-wood overlay doors: a polyurethane-insulated steel sandwich door overlaid with stain- or paint-grade wood species. The go-to spec when a builder wants authentic wood character with modern thermal performance.
Carriage House Door Company
Handcrafted, fully custom door designs built from select materials for more than 20 years. When an architect hands you a drawing nobody else can build, this is who we order from.
LiftMaster & Genie Openers
Forest is an authorized LiftMaster dealer and an authorized warranty station for both LiftMaster Professional and Genie Professional. Full residential and commercial operator lineup at contractor pricing — belt drive, chain drive, wall-mount/jackshaft, and myQ-connected smart models — plus logic boards, gears, sprockets, remotes, and accessories in stock.

Competitive Prices
There’s nobody in Chicagoland who combines 80 years of product knowledge, a massive walk-in warehouse with inventory you can see and touch, competitive trade pricing, and genuine technical support the way Forest does.
When you call Forest, you talk to a real person who knows garage doors inside and out — not a call center reading from a script.

Forest isn’t just a supplier — we’re a partner in your business. We understand contractor life. We understand that time is money.
