Options
There are many options to choose from! Wayne-Delton, for example offers 12 design options, 10 window patterns, and 15 colors for its Model 9700 door alone. Most manufactures are aware of this and offer digital visualization tools that can help you make an intelligent decision.
Cost
The price of a new garage door depends on many things because there are so many different options. Prices range from $400-$9,000 dollars. If you’ll want an automatic door opener add $200-$300. To get a good idea of the actual price you should get at least 3 bids. However, there is good news. According to Remodeling magazine, a $1500 garage door returns 75.7 of its cost when you sell your home.
Insulated garage door
There are many factors to think about before deciding to purchase an insulated garage door, for example the geographic location. Someone that lives in Florida probably won’t need an insulated garage, but someone in New York most likely yes! Will you be using the garage door as an extra room or workshop? Is there a room above the garage? If there is you should consider getting an insulated garage door.
Safety
Most garages offer a wide range of safety measures. The first safety feature is an automatic reversal system within the garage door opener. If there is an object or obstruction in the way the garage door will automatically go back to its original position. Another key feature is the electric eye sensor system found on many modern garage door systems. It works in the same way as the first feature, but it uses an infrared beam of light during the doors closing operation. One of the last features on a garage door system is the manual release mechanism. It’s designed to remove the garage door from the opening system if a entrapment, malfunction, or power outage occurs.
