Why Install a New Garage Door?
- Home’s curb appeal: A modern panel design, color, and window package can transform the front of your house. Installation is one of the quickest exterior upgrades with a visible ROI.
- Quiet operation: Correct spring sizing, balanced tracks, and smooth rollers reduce vibration and noise—ideal for bedrooms above the garage.
- Safety & security: Professionally tuned photo‑eyes, reversal tests, and reinforced tracks protect people, vehicles, and valuables.
- Comfort & savings: Insulated doors help stabilize temps for gyms, workshops, or utility spaces—proper in Central TX heat and winter fronts.
- Lower lifetime maintenance: A proper, balanced system protects the opener and reduces early repairs or callbacks.
Still deciding between garage door repair and a brand‑new installation? We’ll compare options side‑by‑side so you can choose confidently.
Door Styles & Materials that Match your Home
Insulated steel (most popular)
Durable, versatile, and budget‑friendly. Choose classic raised panels or modern flush profiles, plus faux‑wood textures, window lites, and decorative hardware. Insulation options run from polystyrene to high‑R polyurethane. This combination of quality, price, and noise reduction is why insulated steel dominates most residential installs.
Carriage style/wood overlay
Warm, traditional style with the strength of a steel base. Great for craftsman and historic homes. We’ll review finish options and care routines to align with your expectations—beauty without surprises.
Modern glass & aluminum
Crisp lines and daylight for contemporary architecture. We’ll advise on privacy glass, frame finishes, and opener pairing to ensure a quiet and dependable experience.
Not sure what fits? Our knowledgeable team will help you find a door that complements your exterior palette and HOA, without compromising performance.
Pair your Door with the Right Opener
A balanced door deserves a matched opener. Popular choices in Austin include:
- Belt‑drive: Ultra‑quiet for attached garages; add battery backup for storms and outages.
- Wall‑mount jackshaft: Opens up ceiling space and reduces vibration—valid for tall vehicles and storage racks.
- Smart access: App control, schedules, and alerts improve everyday convenience and security.
Already own a unit? We’ll integrate it and verify force/travel settings and sensor alignment. Explore options for garage door openers or book an opener installation.
Sectional & Overhead Doors—Residential and Light Commercial
We primarily install sectional overhead doors for homes and support light commercial needs where appropriate. Have a small bay at a business, warehouse, or by the loading docks? Ask about models and safety upgrades for those environments.

Repair vs. Installation—How We Help You Decide
- Panel & structural damage: Multiple bent or cracked sections often point to a new door instead of patchwork repairs.
- Recurring breakdowns: If parts keep failing, replacing them with fresh hardware restores reliability and protects the opener.
- Noise & vibration: New hardware and correct spring sizing = quieter, smoother operation.
- Budget & timing: We’ll match options to your budget and schedule, with clear lead times and delivery windows.

Care & Maintenance After Your Install
Professional installation is step one; simple care helps preserve performance:
- Seasonal lubrication of hinges, rollers, and bearings
- Visual checks of cables, springs, and fasteners
- Quarterly balance test (door should stay in place when lifted halfway)
- Clean photo‑eyes and check alignment to prevent false reversals
- Replace remote/keypad batteries annually or as needed
Have a concern later? Our repair team can restore smooth, safe operation quickly.
DIY vs. Professional Installation—What to Consider
Some projects look straightforward online, but garage door systems store significant spring energy. A mis‑sized spring or misaligned track can cause damage or injury, and poor setups shorten opener life. Our licensed, insured technicians bring calibrated tools, correct spring charts, and real‑world experience providing safe, quiet results.
