Just replace my wood fiber garage doors (37 yrs old) with insulated steel doors.
Shopped around at all of the above places and end up with Laurent OH doors. All the contractors including the home improvements chains are within $100 of each other. I went with Laurent as Garaga brand doors appears to give the best value.
At first I request a replacement panel, the bottom of 4 panels delaminated. I can no longer find matching wood fiber panel, and the best match was a steel panel costing $300. For $500 more I can replace all 4 panels and the hardware!
I notice this winter the garage is a lot warmer with the insulated unit.
I almost went with Meredith Overhead Doors. Laurent quick reply on the phone and prompt estimate and install was the deal breaker.
