How long does a typical professional garage door installation take?

At LGA Garage Door Service, a residential installation generally takes 1 to 2 hours, including removal of the old door and installation of new tracks, springs, and openers.

What are the most durable materials for a new residential garage door?

Steel is the most durable and low-maintenance option. Modern triple-layer steel doors provide excellent longevity and insulation compared to wood.

Is it worth the investment to choose an insulated garage door?

Yes. Insulated doors improve energy efficiency, reduce noise, and increase structural integrity—especially important for garages with rooms above them.

Can I reuse my existing garage door opener with a new door?

Usually, yes, if the opener is in good working condition. However, upgrading ensures compatibility with modern safety and security features.

Does a new garage door increase the resale value of my home?

Yes, garage door replacement is one of the top home improvement projects for ROI, significantly boosting curb appeal and home value.

Do I need to be home during the entire installation process?

We recommend being present at the start and end for safety walkthroughs, but you do not need to stay for the full 1-2 hour duration.

How should I prepare my garage for a new door installation?

Please clear 10 to 12 feet of space back from the opening and move vehicles or bicycles to allow our technicians a safe workspace.

What is the difference between a torsion spring and an extension spring system?

Torsion springs are mounted above the door and provide better balance and safety. Extension springs run along side tracks and are typically for lighter doors.

Can I customize the look of my new garage door with windows or hardware?

Yes. We offer customization through various window layouts, decorative glass, and carriage-house style hardware to match your home's architecture.

What kind of warranty is included with a new garage door installation?

Most doors include a limited lifetime panel warranty and a one-year labor warranty from LGA Garage Doors. Specifics vary by manufacturer.
