Installing a new garage door is a project requiring expertise, precise attention to detail, and all the right tools. If you’re a DIY kind of person, a word of caution: Depending on what kind of garage door you purchase, it could be significantly larger and heavier than you think.

Does Your Home Really Need a New Garage Door?

Whether the house you call home needs a new garage door depends on a variety of factors. It’s worth taking some time to evaluate your particular situation, keeping the following in mind:

When you stand back and look at your garage and its door(s), what do you see? When you open and close your garage door(s), how does it go? Over time, garage doors can wear out, become noisy, or operate less smoothly, all of which are telltale signs it’s time for something new and fresh. Now, think about the safety and security of your home and family. Does your home’s current garage door(s) provide adequate security? The right newer garage doors can provide the safety and security you want. How about energy efficiency? Everyone wants to do their part to use less energy. Old garage doors lacking good insulation can be a major source of heat loss during colder months, leading to higher energy costs for homeowners. A new garage door with proper insulation and weatherproofing can make a big positive impact, which is money well spent.

If you’re thinking of selling your house or want to ensure you’re maintaining its value well into the future, you’ll want to take a good, hard look at your garage doors because they play a big part in your home’s value. Depending on how your home is situated, the garage is often the biggest architectural feature people see from the street. This means garage doors have an immediate large impact on your home’s curb appeal. Installing new doors can go a long way toward maintaining and enhancing your home’s value, once again making for money well spent. If you decide a round of home renovations is in order, put new garage doors on your list of projects and get them taken care of when other projects are also underway. If part of what’s on your agenda is a whole smart home system of automated technologies, new garage doors are available that are compatible with smart home technologies.

With so many benefits to reap from new garage doors, the only thing you may be wondering now is why you waited so long to make this important investment!

How to Choose the Right Garage Door Installation Provider

With so much at stake when choosing new garage doors, you’ll want to find the right company to work with on this important investment. Keep the following in mind as you explore various companies and evaluate which one deserves your business:

Can the company provide everything you need? Take a good look to ensure any potential company offers all the garage services you may need now and in the future, including sales, installation, repairs, maintenance, replacements, and emergency services. You’ll also want to be sure the company can offer quality products in terms of available styles, desired functionality, top-notch materials, and solid craftsmanship. How customizable are the products available? You want a company with the widest range of options in garage door styles, colors, and features to fit your home’s aesthetics.

Next, does the company offer energy-efficient options with superior insulation and energy-saving capabilities to reduce your home’s utility bills? How about safety and security? Most everyone these days wants garage doors with advanced security features to protect their home and family. 

Thinking now specifically about installation, can the company provide you with a good understanding of the process from consultation to installation, including timelines and what to expect? After all, you don’t want any unpleasant surprises! How about warranties and support? 

Be sure to compare warranty periods and the extent of post-installation support and services available. Finally, take a close look and pricing and value. Is the pricing transparent and affordable? Evaluate the overall value offered in comparison to competitors. Armed with the above factors to consider, we’re confident you’ll find the right garage door company to work with, and we won’t be at all surprised if GDI makes your shortlist.
