Garage Door Installation
Turn-key garage door installation across California. Permits handled, old door hauled away, opener tuned, and a 10-year workmanship warranty on every install.
Our garage door installation service covers all of Santa Clarita: Valencia, Saugus, Newhall and Canyon Country. Set in the Los Angeles & Orange County coastal basin, these doors face intense afternoon UV that dries out weather seals and bottom gaskets and marine-layer humidity that pits uncoated springs and rollers, and we plan every repair around it.
Santa Clarita sits in the Los Angeles & Orange County coastal basin — a mild Mediterranean climate where ocean-cooled mornings give way to warm, dry afternoons, with a marine layer that lingers through late spring. That puts real stress on garage door hardware: we routinely see intense afternoon UV that dries out weather seals and bottom gaskets and marine-layer humidity that pits uncoated springs and rollers, and we fit parts rated to handle it.
From Valencia, Saugus, Newhall and Canyon Country, the issues Santa Clarita customers describe are typically worn nylon rollers on doors cycled multiple times a day, frayed lift cables on aging two-car sectional doors, and opener logic-board failures after summer heat spikes. We quote flat-rate, fix it in one trip, and back the work for 10 years.
Garage door installation is more than swapping panels — done right, it's a coordinated project that involves measuring the rough opening, ordering the correct door size and configuration, scheduling delivery, removing and recycling the old door, installing new tracks and hardware, mounting and pairing an opener (if needed), and verifying every safety feature is calibrated to UL-325. Our turn-key installations handle every step including permits and HOA paperwork where applicable, so the homeowner's only job is choosing the door style.
We install residential single-car, double-car, and oversized RV/garage-shop doors, plus commercial sectional, rolling steel, and fire-rated installations. Every install includes a written measurement and configuration check before we order, color and finish confirmation with a physical sample, and a same-day balance and safety test after install. The 10-year workmanship warranty backs the installation itself — separate from the manufacturer's warranty on the door and opener.
Most residential installs are completed in 4–6 hours including old-door removal and clean-up. Commercial installs vary by door type — a typical sectional commercial door installs in one day, while large rolling steel may take 1–2 days depending on opening size and motor configuration.
New construction installs require coordination with the framer on opening dimensions, headroom, and side-room clearances. We can spec the opening before framing begins.
Existing door past repair value
When repair quotes exceed 50% of new door cost or the door is structurally compromised, installation of a new door is the right economic call.
Aesthetic remodel of the home
Garage doors take up 30–40% of street-facing facade on most homes. A new install dramatically updates curb appeal.
Insulation/energy upgrade
Attached garages with old uninsulated doors leak conditioned air. A new R-12 to R-18 insulated install can reduce HVAC load measurably.
Storm or accident damage
Insurance claims often cover full door replacement after major impact or storm damage. We document for the claim and install the replacement.
Common causes & what we fix
Replacement for damaged door
Single-event damage (vehicle, storm, accident) often warrants full replacement rather than partial repair, particularly if the tracks are bent or panels are cracked through.
End-of-life on existing door
Doors over 20 years old often have multiple components at end of life simultaneously — replacement bundles the work into one project.
Code compliance upgrades
California SB-969 (battery backup) and UL-325 (safety auto-reverse) standards have evolved. New installs bring everything to current code.
Insulation upgrade
Going from a non-insulated to R-18 door requires full replacement; you cannot retro-fit foam to a thin-skinned non-insulated door cost-effectively.
Style change
Switching from raised-panel to carriage-style or full-view is a full-door replacement — the rail and track configurations differ.
