Considerations When Buying a Residential Garage Door
COST
This is often the top consideration on our customer’s list. Our prices are fair and they don’t change like the wind. We understand the associated cost and the resulting value of buying a new garage door and want our customers to feel good about our products and service.
STYLE & COLOR
Because the garage door is on the front of many homes and is such a prominent feature, this is a very important consideration. We will help you choose a garage door that compliments the architecture and style of your home. Many styles and colors are in stock in our warehouse.
SAFETY
No matter how beautiful your door looks, it must function safely. With our professional installation and heavy-duty hardware package, your door will function consistently and in a manner that is safe. As the largest moving item in most homes...do not skimp on quality hardware and installation.
R-VALUE
We recommend a thermal insulated door on garages that are heated or attached to the home. R-Value is a measure that is used as a selling point, but don’t be fooled...there is more to it than R-Value. Let us teach you about this and what it means to you, the consumer.
AVAILABILITY
Timeline can be a deciding factor for many homeowners. We stock a wide range of sizes, designs, colors, and window options in our warehouse. Often, stocked doors can be installed in less than 1 week from the time of your free estimate.
PROXIMITY
We only perform installations within a radius that we can promptly service. If you have an issue with your door we will be there in a timely manner. We are your local, family owned and operated garage door expert.
RELIABILITY
We stand behind the products we offer and the service we provide. We are a brick-and-mortar facility with regular business hours. If anything goes wrong, or if you need regular maintenance, we will be there when you need us.
EXPERIENCE
Overall experience is just as important as any other factor. We aim to exceed your expectations from start to finish. Our installers, technicians, customer service staff, and warehouse staff have many years of experience.
