Reasons to Buy a Steel Garage Door
Steel garage doors have many advantages over other materials, including wood and aluminum, and can be a good investment for homeowners:
Variety of Steel Garage Door Choices
There are several different options for steel garage doors, all with varying prices. It’s possible to stay on a budget with steel and still gain all of its benefits.
Customizability of the Doors
Steel offers a wide variety of options for customizing the look of garage doors. Whether your new doors will adorn a Victorian home in San Diego, a Craftsman Bungalow or Mid-Century Modern on the shoreline, a Mission home in Mission Valley or Hills, or a new Ranch or Modern Farmhouse, we offer all the design elements and options that let you customize your steel garage door to your taste.
Durability
Steel is thicker and stronger than other materials, making it more resistant to wear and tear from dents, scrapes, heavy winds, and rainstorms. Steel doors also don’t crack or delaminate in bad weather.
Energy efficiency
Steel garage doors are more energy efficient than wooden and fiberglass doors, which can help reduce your home’s environmental impact.
Low maintenance
Steel is lightweight and has a high strength-to-weight ratio, so it doesn’t put as much stress on the opener mechanism and requires less maintenance than other materials. Steel doors are also rust and stain resistant, and you can keep them looking good with an annual power wash.
Security
Steel doors are durable and resilient, making them a good choice for homes that need extra security. When equipped with the latest safety devices, a steel garage door can help keep your loved ones safe and protect your home.
Cost-effective
Steel garage doors are less expensive than buying a new home and can enhance your home’s value.
Environmental impact
Steel is easy to recycle, which gives steel garage doors a positive environmental impact.
