Timnwendy Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Wayne Dalton garage doors are good. I couldn't believe how well mine stood up to Ike, but of course it was wind-rated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwrm4 Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 I ended going with Hollywood Door. I found the owner extremely helpful and knowledgeable. It's not installed yet (construction not done), but my neighbor had them install a door and was very happy. I did discover that a number of people in the garage door business in Houston are first-class pricks. You would think in a soft economy they would be a little more receptive to someone wanting to buy a high-end door.I also went with an insulated steer door that "looks" like a wooden carrriage door (with windows). The 18 x 8 door, with a jackshaft opener (mounts to front wall of garage) was $3100. Identical wood doors ranged from $5500 to $9000 (!).

I got a new one installed last January and I'm very happy with work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
