Choosing the Right Garage Door for Your Location

Before the installation process starts, it’s important to select a door that best suits your needs so you are satisfied once the installation is complete. Our goal is to ensure that you are completely satisfied with your garage door installation from start to finish.

Popular garage door types include steel, vinyl, full-view aluminum, wood, and wood composite. However, not all garage doors are created equal.

The type of climate that your garage door is exposed to will affect its performance. Consider these common weather conditions and how they can affect your garage door:

Extreme hot weather: If you’re in a location that experiences high temperatures regularly, a wood or vinyl garage door may not be the best option. Wood has a tendency to absorb moisture in the air, especially in a high humidity climate. This can cause the wood to expand, leading to cracks and breaks. Vinyl can change its shape in high temperatures, which can detract from its pristine look. Under these conditions, a steel or aluminum door is a better option.
Extreme cold weather: Wood and aluminum garage doors do not perform well in extremely cold temperatures either. Wood and aluminum can become frail when exposed to consistently low temps over an extended period of time. Steel, vinyl, and wood composite doors will fare much better under such conditions..
Rain and/or snow: If you live in an area that experiences wet weather, the excess moisture is not ideal for wood or aluminum doors. An aluminum door can rust, and wood can rot. A steel, vinyl, or wood composite door is a better way to go for this type of environment.

If needed, our garage door professionals can help you choose the right door for your area — no matter the climate.

Why Hire a Professional for Your Garage Door Installation?

Installing a garage door is a serious endeavor. It presents challenges and risks and should always be performed by experienced technicians. A garage door professional will take the proper safety precautions and verify the following:

Ensure springs and cables properly support the weight of the door.
Confirm the opener is installed correctly to avoid undue strain on your garage door’s system.
Ensure door panels are the appropriate size.
Confirm each door panel has the appropriate type and number of hinges.
Confirm correct placement of door panel hinges.
Inspect door tracks for damage.
Check for proper alignment of safety sensors.
The garage door selected is appropriate for your needs/climate.

As you can see, there are a lot of things that go into proper garage door installation. This is why it’s crucial to hire an experienced technician who understands these on-the-job risks:

Garage doors are weighty. If not installed correctly, they can unexpectedly fall on objects or people.
Torsion springs are tightly wound and have the potential to cause serious injury if not handled and installed carefully.
Safety sensors prevent your garage door from closing when objects are underneath it. If not properly installed, your door could smash an object or injure someone in its path.

These are just some of the reasons why you need a qualified, reputable, and knowledgeable garage door technician for your garage door installation to ensure you and your family are safe.

How to Prepare for Your Garage Door Installation

Having a new garage door installed is an exciting process. The exterior of your home will have a new look, which will enhance the curb appeal of your home..

Remove obstacles from the surrounding area: Make sure that your Precision Garage Door technician has a clear path to install your door. Too many objects around the work area can delay the installation process.
