Thinking About Replacing Your Garage Door?

Do you have a new garage door on your mind? It can be hard to know where to start looking or what brands to consider as you make your choice. Here are five great reasons Overhead Door™ Brand should be at the top of your list. 

1.  A Legacy of Excellence 

Garage doors as we know them today were invented by Overhead Door Corporation founder, C. G. Johnson. In 1921 he partnered with Owen Dautrick to invent the upward-lifting garage door. In 1926 he went on to invent the electric garage door opener defining how garage doors look and operate. For more than 100 years, Overhead Door™ Brand has been leading the way in the garage door industry. Pioneering innovations paired with exceptional quality and service have allowed this brand to grow and succeed for a century and counting. If you want a new garage door, you can count on the reputation, the tradition and the lasting quality of an Overhead Door™ Brand garage door. 

2. Stylish Options 

At Overhead Door™ Brand, we have a garage door for every home. Classic cottage? Sleek modern? European inspired? Sophisticated traditional? The list goes on. Every architectural style of home can be complemented by an Overhead Door™ Brand garage door.  From aluminum to wood to glass and steel, we have the materials you need for your specific climate, needs and style. Take a look at our extensive collection and explore all the possibilities for your home.

3. Safety First 

The type of garage door you need has a lot to do with where you live. Some key factors to think about are temperature (extreme hot or cold), frequent storms, high wind, proximity to the ocean and humidity. All these external factors can dictate the type of garage door you may need. Especially when you think about frequent or severe storms, like hurricanes or tornadoes, it is critical to pick a garage door with the right wind load protection to not only protect your garage but your entire home. When you choose an Overhead Door™ Brand garage door with wind load optional upgrades, your garage door can meet or exceed the coastal region building codes, including the International Building Code (IBC), International Residential Code (IRC), Florida Building Code (FBC), Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) and Miami-Dade County. So, if you live somewhere with unpredictable weather, choosing Overhead Door™ Brand can offer peace of mind in the face of danger. 

4. Easy Access

This can help homeowners make the right financial decisions for their renovations without sacrificing style or quality.
