Common questions#

Is a roller door or a sectional door cheaper to install?

A single roller door supplied and installed typically runs $1,200 to $3,500, while a single sectional door costs more at $2,500 to $5,000 because of its insulated multi-panel construction. Roller doors are the cheaper option for a standard single garage.

How much does it cost to replace a garage door spring?

Spring replacement typically costs $250 to $550 per pair, including parts and labour. It is not a DIY job: garage door springs are under very high tension and incorrect handling can cause serious injury.

Should I repair a damaged panel or replace the whole door?

Panel repair or replacement usually costs $200 to $750, well under the $1,200 to $3,500 cost of a new roller door or the $2,500 to $5,000 cost of a new sectional door. Repair is worth pursuing unless several panels are damaged or the door is failing elsewhere too.

Do I need to budget separately for a motor or opener?

Yes, unless you are quoted a supplied-and-installed price that already includes automation. A motor or opener supplied and installed typically costs $400 to $1,200 on top of a manual door, or less if you are only replacing an existing motor.
