How To Pick The Best Garage Door
When picking the best garage door for you, a good place to start is with material type. Most garage doors are made from either wood, steel or fiberglass. These three materials are strong, durable and each have their unique benefits at various price
points. Most popular garage doors today are steel doors and they come in four different insulation types.
Non insulated Garage Door ( Hollow Door ) R-Value 0.00
Half insulated Garage Door ( Vinyl back ) R-Value 3.56
Fully insulated Garage Door (Sandwich ) R- Value 9.65
Foam Injected Garage Door (intelle core ) R- Value 18
Pretty close to their home's R-Value. An insulated garage door will not make your garage door warm but it will make it warmer. And that's the point. It may raise the temperature by as much as 10 degrees and that is very often the difference between cold and freezing which is important.

Beaten, or rusted garage door is not just unsafe but an eyesore that can damage the resale value of your home. It isn't a wonder either, as a garage door can take up nearly a third of the front real-estate of your home. An ancient and eroded door can reduce your home's curb appeal while also being considerably inferior in insulation than newer models. This poor insulation can make your garage hot in the summer and freeze in the winter. At alvin Garage Door Service we always recommended to properly maintain your door to get the most out of it,but we also offer a wide range of different doors to choose from if you decide to replace it.
There are 4 major types of garage doors available on the market:
Retractable garage doors
These doors are easy to install. The tracks are fitted at the top of the door to support it and the springs are fitted to the side frames. With the help of an electronic opener, operating them becomes easier. When these doors are opened, they swing outwards and then slide into the ceiling of the garage. You can select an automatic latching and de-latching system for the proper working of your door. Cons: you can't park your vehicle close to the garage door.
Sectional garage doors
These doors do not require the door frames provides increased drive-through width. Sectional garage door open by rising vertically upwards and then slide backward into the ceiling of your door. This type of door is mainly manufactured in steel but timber-made versions are also available. Sectional doors are also easy to operate and automated motors make the process further easier.
Rollup garage doors
The rollup garage doors also rise vertically up when opened but they do not slide into the ceiling of the door. Instead, they get rolled up on a spindle which is located in the ceiling space. It is manufactured from thin walled slats which may or may not have an insulating core depending on the buyers’ choice. Typically, the roller doors are made up of aluminum and steel. The installation process of rollup doors is easy but it requires the assistance of second person for lifting up the curtain and fitting it into the support brackets.
Canopy garage doors
The functioning of the canopy doors is similar to that of the retractable doors however it does not swing outward as much. Also when they slide into the ceiling, one-third part of the door is left over-hanged outwards. These doors are not longer recommended because they are not suited for the automated operation.
