Garage Door Brand Recommendations?
Comments (8)I spent some time this spring going to the home shows looking at all the brands available locally. There are a lot more garage door companies than I realized. I ended up getting a referral by someone at work to an installation company further away than I had been looking. They ended up being significantly less expensive than anyone else who quoted me. My doors are from Haas Door. They are insulated at R13 and are steel with a composite overlay to create the carriage look. Amazingly, they cost me $1350 each installed plus opener for an 8x9. Probably the only complaint about the doors is that they have single pane glass, which seemed odd for an insulated door, but the price really knocked my socks off so I am thrilled. Here is a link that might be useful: Haas Door...See MoreGarage door recommendations
Comments (5)Thank you michoumonster, my doors are not salvageable at all. I have a brochure from my contractor for amarr. I need a funny size so can not get them through sam's or Costco so the ones I need being custom are a bit pricy. But I can squeek by just shy of my max budget of 3k per door for an over lay carriage style steel door....See MoreGarage door opener/motor recommendation
Comments (6)The first place to start is to check the door itself. Disconnect the opener. The door should open easily and smoothly and be balanced. To check balance open the door (opener still disconnected) to about chest high. The door should stay there, if it doesn't then the springs need to be adjusted. If the door operates properly, then it doesn't matter what kind of opener you use. Belt drives tend to be a little quieter which is nice if you have living space above the garage. Generally speaking replacing an existing opener is pretty easy. It will probably take a couple of hours, including reading the instructions, laying everything out, and cleaning up....See MoreGarage door opener recommendations
