Garage Door Prices

There is a range of options available when you want to purchase a garage door and all of these have different garage door prices. The prices start at about $300 for the basic garage door, but you can choose architecturally designed doors, which will be more expensive. The material you select in the door, wood, aluminum or steel, the quality of the insulation between the panels, the glass inserts and the style of panel will affect the price range of the doors. You can choose a smooth door or one with raised or recessed panels and have it stained to suit the color of the exterior of the house.

The least expensive garage doors are called stock doors. These do not have a design in the panels and come without any glass. Each upgrade you want to include will impact of the price. You also need to consider whether or not you can do the job yourself or whether you will have it installed professionally. You also have to look at the cost of the garage door opener that you need to lift the door easily and the level of noise you can have in this device. All of these factors will make the cost of the door a lot more than the basic price.

A wood garage door made of pressed wood or plywood and containing recessed panels will cost about $600. If you need a professional to install the door, you can add at least another $100 and another $100 if you want to have glass inserts added to the door. An average steel garage door, without windows costs about $360.00 and the installation costs are about the same, but it is much more expensive to add windows to a steel door.
