Even though we spend most of our time dealing with garage door repairs, we do also get inquiries about different options to consider when it comes to brand new garage doors.  So along those lines of thinking, I thought I would share a bit of information on solid wood garage doors.  It's not something we see a whole lot of here in Tucson, but that doesn't mean it's not an option for you. A garage door must be solid to ensure the safety of not only your vehicles, but your home as well. But this is not the only functionality of this product, whose numerous options can make deciding on one material over another sometimes so difficult. Among the selection criteria, insulation capacity and aesthetics are often in first place. The wooden garage door meets all these expectations.

Features Of The Wooden Garage Door

Garage door manufacturers have found in wood a synonym for solidity. They use solid wood, such as pine or fir, to make door finishes that must withstand the passage of time, changes in temperature and especially frequent manipulations. The Oukoumé wood and the Doussie are generally very appreciated and frequently used because they are very robust. They also make it possible to create doors that last for thirty or even forty years, in spite of the alternation of the humidity and the excessive heat that they must undergo. The wood, before being worked to obtain the desired shape and dimensions, is treated in order to slow down the chances of it rotting. It is then shaped into the desired shape. Generally, the garage door is manufactured according to standardized standards but nothing prevents you from ordering one made to measure, depending on the location, the orientation and the dimensions of your garage.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Wooden Garage Door

Wood is undoubtedly a material of unquestionable elegance, but it is nevertheless difficult to install. Because it is a heavy material that, unlike PVC and aluminum, requires a lot of experience and sometimes even the intervention of a whole team of professionals. Quality wood is also a little more expensive than other types of materials, but then the durability and elegance is something that people are often willing to pay extra for. At Discount Garage Door Company, we have experience with installing all kinds of doors, so if you're curious about a solid wooden door for your home, don't hesitate to give us a call to discuss your options.
