New Garage Door Installation

Our garage door company that serves Newton in both residential and commercial offers services in all make models and type of garage doors such as overhead doors, commercial garage doors, and precision doors, as well as garage door repairs and opener repairs. But oftentimes we find it more cost-effective and value-added for new door replacement. There are many moving parts including but not limited to the door joint hinges, the pull chain, the safety cables, spring and openers, the rollers & tracks, weather seals, etc. Commonly new doors are far more efficient, and have far more capabilities such as WIFI, Alexa, myQ, Ring, Xfinity connectivity, and more! Below are some of the most common considerations for replacing your garage door

1. Safety

• Some older residential & commercial garage doors lacked motion sensors. These sensors are placed at the base of the garage door just inside where the door closes at ground level. They ensure that if anything is blocking them (could be under the door) the door will cease to close. Everything from a cardboard box to fido to your young child. Garage doors, especially old ones, can be very heavy and dangerous. So might as well install garage doors that are new. 
• Deteriorating/rusted safety components. It is not hard to imagine metal being in contact with our New England weather (Rain/Salt/Cold/Heat) and eventually weakening. Most garage door openers utilize a chain, metal cables, and metal springs rather than a belt drive. If you see the chain sagging or any signs of deterioration replaced the door openers. Have a door opener installation in Newton Garage Door. We had successfully installed many already.
• Older doors can sometimes get wet inside making them very heavy. The kind of door panel and door design is also a factor. In the event of a failure they can cause quite a bit of damage or bodily harm should someone or something be unfortunately underneath. This added weight puts an unnecessary strain not only on the garage door opener, but also the springs, safety cable tracks, and rollers causing them to wear out faster and you will have a broken garage door.
• Locking mechanisms- Some older doors either don’t have these or they do not work as they used to. We have a variety of locking options to keep you, your home, and your possessions secure may it be a commercial door or residential garage door. Our garage door service in Newton is very reliable and high quality. It is best if you pick our garage door company in Newton ma.

​ 2.  Energy Efficiency

• New garage doors come in a variety of materials and door designs. The likes of which are more efficient than doors that are even a new as 5 years old! A well-insulated door helps keep the cool air in during the summer and the cold air out during the winter
• Updating the seals, molding, and weather stripping- a newer door will some with new seals all around, blocking out drafts dust, and critters. If you feel the air on a particularly hot or cold day around the perimeter or bottom of the door you may need to consider a replacement. Have it replace with garage door experts in Newton ma.
• Older garage doors tend to be solid wood or a wood composite material. Technology and sealing agents have come a long way to keeping water out over the last few decades and older doors can sometimes get wet inside making them very heavy if they are not already. The added weight means more work for the garage door opener and more electricity required for normal operation costing hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars more in operation cost over the life of the door.
• New garage door openers have a bunch of new technology attached to them- from the remote capabilities but also the motion sensors like the electric openers, some models when equipped have motion sensor lights to help save energy ad only utilize power when motion is detected. Our door company will be happy to guide you. 

   3. Cleanliness & Health
With your new door, seals, and weather stripping in place, you’ll find the benefits exceed just energy cost savings

• With a tight seal, less dust/dirt and debris will be blown into the garage, be it from your landscaper/blowing or the wind
• Better protection against insects- if the bugs can't get in when the door is closed, you are that much more protected from them and the spiders that eat them!
• Did you know the average mouse can fit through a hole the size of a dime? A DIME! Do you store food in your garage? How about landscape products or wood? Having mice in your garage can quickly escalate into a giant issue with added costs, traps, bait pesticides, and more. The rubber seal at the bottom of the door is probably the most effective defense for mice, but also the most damaged piece due to its contact with the ground, snow, ice salt, having things like cables wedged under them for long periods, etc. This can deteriorate rather quickly and gaps can form. Each new garage door is installed with a brand new long-life rubber seal. That is how important to have regular repair and maintenance.

   4. Noise
Old Doors and operators can be both ugly and loud.
When you open your garage door does:

• Does the House shake?
• Lights flicker?
• Loud screeching noise?
• Cracking/popping?
• The ceiling move?
• The door open crooked
• Garage door does not open all the way?
• The neighbor asks is everyone ok
• The neighbors call the cops thinking you’re launching fireworks

Each new door comes not only with the door but all the tracks, cables, garage door springs, door opener, etc. that will help keep noise to a minimum. 
   5. Design/Updates

• Did you just remodel your home? Repaint it? Replace the shudders or maybe clean up the landscape? Depending on the style of your home- the garage door is likely one of the largest statement pieces of the home. Generally accounting for at a minimum 60sq ft of frontage for a single garage door.
