HOW TO KNOW WHEN TO REPLACE GARAGE DOOR PANELS
After your garage door has been impacted or heavily damaged, you may assume the only method to fix the panels is to replace the entire system. However, depending on the extent of the damage, replacing the affected garage door panels may be the best solution. Garage door panel replacement is the ideal repair option for your damaged garage door if:
- The manufacturer of your garage door still produces the make and model of your door. If your home features an older model, obtaining the proper panels and hardware may be difficult and expensive.
- Only one or two panels were damaged. If three or more panels of your garage door were impacted, then replacement may be more costly than installing an entirely new door.
- The damage to your garage door is primarily cosmetic. If your garage door still performs reliably and smoothly, then consider panel replacement if the only harm includes peeling paint, denting, cracks, or surface corrosion.
GARAGE DOOR PANEL REPAIR VS. FULL GARAGE DOOR REPLACEMENT
Sometimes, the damage to your garage door is too severe for practical and efficient repairs and garage door replacement is the best option. To determine if you would benefit from a garage door replacement, consider:
- The age and quality of your garage door.
- If additional pieces of hardware are damaged.
- If the expenses for repairing your existing door exceeds the cost of purchasing a new garage door.
Sometimes you might question whether you’ll need a repair or a replacement. In those cases, you should reach out to a trusted service that can guide you towards the best option for your situation.
