Frequently Asked Questions About Our Garage Doors

General Garage Door Information

How can I tell if a client needs a new garage door?

There are several signs that indicate it might be time for a new garage door. These include significant physical damage like cracks or dents, slow or noisy operation, frequent breakdowns, and higher utility bills due to decreased efficiency. If the existing door is outdated or no longer complements the property's aesthetic, a replacement can also improve curb appeal and value.

What type of garage door is right for a specific property?

The right garage door depends on your specific needs, budget, and property style. For residential homes, carriage-style or raised panel doors can add aesthetic appeal. For commercial properties, functionality and durability are key, making steel or aluminum sectional doors a practical choice. Our team can help you evaluate factors like material, insulation, and design to find the perfect match.

Residential & Commercial Doors

How are residential garage doors different from commercial garage doors?

Residential garage doors are designed with aesthetics, style, and home integration in mind, offering a wide range of colors and decorative options. Commercial garage doors, on the other hand, are built for durability, security, and high-frequency use. They are typically larger, constructed from more robust materials like heavy-duty steel, and are designed to withstand the demands of a business environment.

Wholesale & Materials

What materials do you offer for your garage doors?

We offer a variety of high-quality materials to suit different functional and aesthetic requirements. Our selection includes durable steel, modern and lightweight aluminum, and classic wood composite options. Each material provides unique benefits in terms of durability, maintenance, insulation, and appearance, allowing you to choose the best fit for your project.

Are there benefits to purchasing wholesale garage doors?

Yes! Purchasing wholesale garage doors from a supplier like Eastern Door Supply offers significant advantages, especially for contractors, builders, and dealers. Key benefits include access to competitive pricing, a wider selection of products and brands, and faster delivery times. This allows you to manage project costs effectively and provide high-quality solutions to your clients without delay.

What are the benefits of aluminum garage doors?

Aluminum garage doors are an excellent choice for modern properties, offering a sleek and contemporary look. They are lightweight, which reduces strain on the opener, and are highly resistant to rust and corrosion, making them ideal for coastal or humid climates. While lightweight, they are also durable and require minimal maintenance to keep them looking their best.
