How to Choose the Best Commercial Garage Door

Tips for Choosing the Best Commercial Garage Door

Determine Which Type of Garage Door You Want

There are multiple types of garage doors available, and choosing the right fit for your business location is the first step in selecting a commercial garage door. The types of garage doors include sectionals, rolling, high speed and security grills. Rolling garage doors are great for small spaces. High-speed garage doors are perfect for businesses that rely on frequently opening and closing garage doors. Security grills are the best option for businesses who want to put security and anti-theft protection first. Overall, the first step to choosing a commercial garage door is to identify what functions and purpose of it before all else.

Budget

While investing in a high-quality garage door is important, and may qualify as a tax write-off for your business, your budget will determine which commercial garage door you can and can't afford. The type of garage door you select and the materials it is made from are two key factors that will impact the total price. You will also need to consider the cost of installation and maintenance.

Materials

Garage doors are often constructed using a variety of metals, including aluminum and steel, but can also be built using wood. Glass is also a common material to increase visibility and natural light exposure. When choosing materials, consider if your commercial garage door will be visible and need to match your business' aesthetics, as well as the energy efficiency and security factors. The materials you choose will also determine how well insulated the space the garage door occupies will be.
