When considering a new garage door, finances are, of course, critical in the decision-making process.
With numerous options available, from roller to section to side-hinged doors, this blog post will guide you through the essential factors to consider when budgeting for a new garage door.
Garage doors come in a variety of formats, including:
While prices are relatively continuous, it’s wise first to consider what sort of garage door will bring the most value and longevity to your property.
For example, sectional and roller offer space-saving electric designs, while side-hinged are more classic or traditional and operate manually.
The choice of material and design significantly influences the price. Skandoor offers doors in multiple colours and styles, with options for electric, manual, or smart app controls.
The material used not only affects the appearance and functionality but also the longevity and maintenance requirements of the door.
Choose a garage door provider that offers a swift and secure installation process, typically completed within a day, to avoid leaving your garage exposed overnight.
Opting for an insulated garage door can offer benefits beyond just temperature control.
Skandoor’s sectional doors are sealed and insulated, making them an ideal choice for those using their garage as a workspace during colder months. Since so much heat is lost through the garage, this can result in superb long-term savings.
So, while high-quality insulated doors might come at a higher initial cost, they can contribute to energy savings over time.
Value-added services like customisation and colour matching, both offered by Skandoor, allow you to customise your door to match your home’s aesthetic.
This service is quoted per project, and the cost varies depending on the door size and chosen colour.
Consider the long-term value of your investment. Skandoor doors are built to last, requiring minimal maintenance. Higher-quality garage doors can last decades with minimal maintenance, cutting costs in the long term
We also offer warranties on parts, labour, motors (for electric doors) and paint finishes, ensuring peace of mind and reducing potential future costs.
Summing up, budgeting for a new garage door involves considering the product range, material, design, installation, security features, insulation, customisation, and the long-term value of your investment.
