Measured Right, Fitted in a Day

Garage door openings are not standard, especially in older South Broward neighborhoods. Two houses on the same street in Hollywood can have different headroom, different side room and a floor that is not level, and a door ordered without checking those things will bind, scrape or leave a gap you can see daylight through. We measure the actual opening — width, height, headroom above the header, side room to each jamb, and the condition of the floor — before anything is ordered. If the framing is out of square or the header needs attention, you hear about it before the door is on the truck rather than after.

Then it is a matter of matching door to house. Steel and aluminium suit most properties, with insulation levels that make a real difference in a garage that faces the afternoon sun. Wood and composite doors suit specific architectural styles, though coastal humidity means they need more care. Impact glass doors are the modern look and, done properly, they meet Florida building code for this area. We remove and haul away the old door, set the new one on new tracks and springs, verify the opener is compatible with the new door weight and make any adjustments it needs, then seal the perimeter and test the door through its full travel. Most standard installations are finished in a single day, and we leave the garage swept.
