What are the standard sizes of residential garage doors?
Standard residential garage door widths are 8', 9', 10', 12', 14', 15', 15'6", 16', and 18'. Some
garage door models can be custom ordered in 2" increments (8'2", 8'4", 8'6", etc.). Standard
garage door heights are from 6' to 8' in 3". Most residential garage doors are now available in extended heights up to 12".
Can my garage door be painted?
Steel garage doors for residential and commercial applications can be painted in the color of your choosing, with 100-percent acrylic latex paint.
Can I replace a section of my door, or do I need to replace the whole door?
Depending upon the damage involved to the garage door system, replacing only a section of your garage door is possible in some cases. Also depending on the damage, a section can be repaired for less than what it will cost to replace
the garage door. An appointment will need to be schedule for a technician to evaluate your situation and recommend the best course of action.
What is R-value, and how does it benefit me?
R-value is a standardized measurement of thermal efficiency. The higher the R-value, the greater the garage door’s insulating properties. Manufactures insulated garage doors for residential and commercial applications with a broad range of R-values designed to meet your needs.

What maintenance does my garage door require?
Our garage door systems are built for long-lasting performance and daily use, but we recommend inspecting your garage door annually. We can schedule an appointment and have a technician give you a thorough evaluation and perform routine maintenance, as needed.
I have a low ceiling in my garage. Will a garage door and opener work in this space?
Yes. A residential garage door requires a minimum of 4 1/2” of headroom space. Your garage door system may need a low-headroom track system or a low-headroom-torsion rear-track system. For a garage door opener, you will need slightly more headroom (about 6 1/2” minimum).
How much headroom do I need?
It depends on the type of spring system that will be installed with your new garage door. For extension springs, a minimum of 10" is required for your garage doors to operate. Torsion springs require 12". Remember, these amounts are for garage door operation only. If you are installing a garage door opener, additional headroom is required.
Can my non-insulated door be insulated?
Yes, we have insulation kits available for installation on non-insulated garage doors.
How do I choose a residential garage door opener that completes my door system?
We feature a list of residential
garage door openers and
opener accessories that work with your garage door, giving you a complete system designed for practical applications and durable, daily use.
What is the difference between the Screw, Belt and Chain drive garage door openers?
• Screw Drive — powerful, fast and quiet. Maximum power for heavy doors.

Belt Drive — quiet and smooth performance. Ideal for garages adjacent to living areas.
• Chain Drive — rugged and reliable. Suitable for most garage doors.
How can I get a new remote control for my opener?
We can provide you with a broad range of
garage door openers and
opener accessories, from remote controls to wireless keypads. You first need to determine if your opener is a newer model an older model. If your opener was manufactured before 1980, then you have an analog-type opener for which we no longer carry remotes. If that is the case, your system has to be upgraded with a new receiver kit for a new remote control to work with it. For additional garage door opener help or to purchase a new receiver kit, contact your local office.
