Garage Door Installation & Replacement in Southeastern Wisconsin

New Garage Door Installation

A garage door is a major part of your home's exterior and one of the largest moving systems on the property.

Choosing the right door involves more than simply finding a design you like. Size, construction, insulation, durability, windows, hardware and garage door opener compatibility can all affect which door makes the most sense for your property.

Barber Overhead Door can help you select and professionally install a garage door that's right for your home or business. Whether you're building new or replacing an existing door, we'll make sure the complete system is properly installed, balanced and adjusted.

Garage Door Replacement

You don't necessarily have to wait until your garage door completely fails to replace it.

An older garage door may still open and close while becoming increasingly noisy, unreliable, inefficient or difficult to maintain.

Replacement may make sense if your existing garage door has:

• Extensive damage
• Damaged or deteriorating panels
• Recurring mechanical problems
• Significant rust or corrosion
• Poor insulation
• Air gaps around the door
• Outdated appearance
• Increasing repair needs
• Structural damage
• Parts that are becoming difficult to obtain

Sometimes repair is still the better option. Barber Overhead Door can evaluate your existing door and help you determine whether repairing or replacing it makes more sense.

Choosing the Right Garage Door

Your garage door can account for a significant portion of the front of your home.

That makes its appearance important—but looks aren't the only consideration.

When choosing a new garage door, you'll want to consider:

• Door style
• Material
• Color
• Insulation
• Window options
• Durability
• Maintenance
• Garage configuration
• Garage door opener compatibility
• Budget

Barber Overhead Door can walk you through the available options and help you find a door that works well with both your property and your priorities.

Insulated Garage Doors

Wisconsin weather makes garage door insulation worth considering.

An insulated garage door can help reduce heat transfer between the garage and outdoors and may make the garage more comfortable during temperature extremes.

Insulation can be especially useful when:

• The garage is attached to the home
• Living space is located above the garage
• The garage is heated
• The garage is used as a workshop
• Temperature-sensitive items are stored inside
• Energy efficiency is a priority

Insulated garage doors can also feel more substantial and may provide quieter operation than some non-insulated doors.

Barber Overhead Door can help you compare insulated garage door options and determine what makes sense for your property.

Garage Door Styles

A new garage door is an opportunity to change the entire look of your home's exterior.

Depending on the products available for your project, garage door styles may include traditional, carriage-house and contemporary designs.

Traditional Garage Doors

Traditional garage doors work well with a wide range of home styles and remain a popular choice for homeowners who want a clean, classic appearance.

Different panel designs, colors, windows and hardware can be used to customize the look.

Carriage House Garage Doors

Carriage-house garage doors provide the appearance of traditional swing-out carriage doors while operating like a modern overhead garage door.

Decorative hardware and window options can create a distinctive look that works particularly well with certain architectural styles.

Modern Garage Doors

Modern garage doors typically feature clean lines, simple panel designs and contemporary window configurations.

They can be an excellent choice for newer homes or homeowners who want to give an existing property a more updated appearance.

We'll help you explore garage door styles that complement your home rather than simply replacing the existing door with something that looks exactly the same.

Repair or Replace Your Garage Door?

A damaged garage door doesn't always need to be replaced. If the door itself remains in good condition and the problem involves a spring, cable, roller, track or garage door opener, repair may be the more practical option.

Replacement becomes more attractive when the door has extensive damage, deterioration, recurring problems or simply no longer meets your needs.

Barber Overhead Door can inspect your existing garage door and explain your options.
