Consider the Environment: The climate you live in significantly influences the material that is best for your garage door. For example, wood can rot in rainy conditions, while glass may crack or rattle in strong winds.

Garage Door Materials

Aluminum Garage Doors

For an affordable, durable, and modern garage door, we recommend using aluminum. This material comes in many design options, including paneling, finishes, colors, and transparency. Aluminum garage doors are corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for areas with harsh weather conditions like snow, ice, and wind.

Fiberglass Garage Doors

Made from a combination of steel and iron, fiberglass doors are sturdy and come in various styles and finishes. This material offers wood-like options that mimic the appearance of real wood without the upkeep and price. Fiberglass is an affordable option that can withstand harsh conditions.

Glass Garage Doors

Steel Garage Doors

Steel garage doors are due to their durability, affordability, low maintenance, and design options. Thicker, multi-layer steel resists dents, while polyester paint ensures a lasting finish.
