What Garage Door Size is the Best for Your Home?

There are many options when it comes to designing and installing your garage door and this includes the size.

Key Factors to Consider When Choosing The Size of Your Garage Door  

When deciding which garage door to install, there are several things to consider, from security and climate requirements to aesthetic preferences. When assessing what garage door size is best for your home, the following questions are important to ask:

• What items will be kept in the garage?
• What size are these items?
• Will the garage be used for activities other than storage, such as exercise or working from home?
• How much can you spend?
• Is your garage also a pedestrian access to your home?
• How much space is there in front of the door?
• How much headroom is there?
• How much side room is there for structural support?
• What is the height and width of the garage entry point?
• What is the depth of the garage?
• Is excavation or construction a possibility to alter the height, width, or depth available?
• What surrounding structures, such as electrical conduits, structural beams, or shelves) may impact the garage door size?

What Are The Different Garage Door Sizes?

There is typically not a standard garage size, so our doors are customisable to ensure their compatibility with your space. This may involve factors such as your garage door width, the door design, and the amount of space required surrounding the door.
