How long does a new garage door installation take?

A standard single door takes 4–5 hours. A double door with a new opener takes 5–7 hours. We complete most installs in a single visit.

What R-value do I need for a Montreal garage?

Attached garages benefit most from R-16 or higher. Detached garages used as workshops should be R-18. Single-skin doors (R-0) are not recommended for Montreal winters.

Do I need permits to replace my garage door?

Most Montreal boroughs do not require a permit for a like-for-like residential replacement. Heritage districts (Westmount, Old Montreal) sometimes do — we'll check before quoting.

Can you install a door I bought elsewhere?

Yes, but warranty coverage is limited to our labour. When we supply the door, you get the full manufacturer warranty plus our installation warranty.

Do you remove the old door?

Yes — removal, haul-away, and responsible recycling are included in every install quote.

What brands do you install?

Garaga, Clopay, Wayne Dalton, Amarr, and Steel-Craft. Openers from LiftMaster, Chamberlain, and Genie. We recommend based on your opening size and use pattern.

When to Install a New Garage Door

Existing door is dented, rotted, or rusted through

No insulation — garage freezes in January

Door is louder than your neighbour's lawnmower

You're renovating and the old door no longer fits the look

Repair quote exceeds 50% of a new door

You want a smart opener with phone alerts

Door is original to a 1970s–80s home

You're converting the garage into a year-round workspace

Why Montreal Homeowners Replace Rather Than Repair

1

Single-skin steel doors from the 1980s have no insulation value

2

Salt and slush rot the bottom 12 inches of older doors

3

New polyurethane-core doors (R-16+) cut heat loss in attached garages

4

Modern openers run quieter and include battery backup for power outages

5

WindCode-rated panels handle Montreal's wind-loading better

6

New doors come with 10–25 year manufacturer warranties

How to Plan Your Garage Door Installation

A proper install starts with measurements, not a quote. Here's what we walk through: 1. On-site measure — opening width, height, headroom, side-room, backroom 2. Insulation choice — R-12 (single garage), R-16 (attached), R-18 (heated workshop) 3. Style — flush, raised-panel, carriage-house, or full-view glass 4. Opener match — belt drive for attached garages, chain for detached 5. Schedule — most standard sizes installed within 5–7 business days 6. Old door removed and recycled the same day Call (438) 922-8583 to book an on-site measure — the diagnostic visit includes the diagnostic.
