Garage Door Installation
Garage door installation is precision work behind a simple-looking result. The tracks have to be plumb and parallel, the header bracket solidly fixed, the springs sized to the exact weight of the door, and the whole assembly balanced so the door holds its position anywhere in its travel. Get any of it wrong and you’ll be calling someone about springs and cables within a year.
We install sectional, carriage-style, flush-panel, and insulated garage doors in steel, wood, composite, and aluminium, with the track configuration matched to your headroom and ceiling.
New Garage Door Installation
For a new garage door installation we measure the opening, headroom, backroom, and sideroom before specifying anything — the track type depends on those numbers, and so does whether your preferred door is even possible. You’ll get the options that actually fit your garage, with the insulation, window, and hardware choices explained rather than guessed.
Garage Door Replacement
Garage door replacement is usually a one-day job. We take the old door down, inspect and replace the track, springs, cables, rollers, and hardware as required, hang the new door, and balance it on new springs sized to its actual weight.
If you’re keeping your existing opener, we check its compatibility with the new door’s weight and travel and re-set the force and limits — an opener that was correctly adjusted for a light uninsulated door is not correctly adjusted for a heavier insulated one.
Old Garage Door Removal & Disposal
Taking an old garage door down is the most dangerous part of the whole job. The springs hold enormous stored energy, and releasing that tension safely is not a DIY task — it’s where most serious garage door injuries happen.
Our technicians release the spring tension under control, dismantle the door section by section, remove the old track and hardware, and take everything away for recycling. You’re not left with panels stacked on the driveway or a trip to the tip to arrange.
Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Garage Door
- Rust, rot, or split panels that no longer hold paint
- Repeated repairs on the same door within a year
- The door is visibly warped, bowed, or sagging along a section
- Impact damage to more than one panel
- No insulation on a garage you use as a workshop or living space
- Panels or hardware for the model are no longer available

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a garage door installation take?
A standard single or double door replacement takes most of a day. Non-standard openings, low-headroom track conversions, or structural work on the header can extend it.
Can I keep my existing opener with a new garage door?
Often, yes — provided the opener is in good condition and rated for the new door’s weight. We check compatibility and re-set the force and travel limits as part of the installation.
Is an insulated garage door worth it?
If the garage is attached, used as a workshop, or has a room above it, yes. Insulated doors are also stiffer and quieter, which extends the life of the hardware.
Do you take the old garage door away?
Yes. Removal, haul-away, and recycling are part of the job, including the old track and hardware.
