Wood Garage Doors

Construction:

• Typically constructed from solid wood or wood composite materials such as plywood or engineered wood.
• Solid wood doors are made from a single piece of natural wood, such as cedar, redwood, fir, or mahogany, offering unmatched richness and character.
• Wood composite doors feature a core made from layers of wood fibers or veneers bonded together with adhesive and covered with a wood veneer or overlay for a natural wood appearance.

Design:

• Wood garage doors are available in a variety of styles, including traditional raised panel, carriage house, and modern designs, to complement different architectural styles and homeowner preferences.
• They can be customized with options such as windows, decorative hardware, and paint or stain finishes to create a unique and personalized look for the home.
• Some wood garage doors feature intricate details such as carved panels, arches, or decorative trim to enhance their aesthetic appeal and visual impact.

Finish:

• Can be finished with paint, stain, or clear sealant to protect the wood from moisture, UV rays, and other environmental factors.
• Painted finishes offer unlimited color options to match the exterior of the home or add a pop of color to the facade.
• Stained finishes showcase the natural beauty of the wood grain while providing protection and enhancing durability.
• Clear sealants provide a natural look and highlight the wood’s texture and color variations, preserving its warmth and character over time.

Insulation:

• Many wood garage doors come with insulation options to improve thermal efficiency and energy savings.
• Insulated wood doors feature a layer of insulation, usually polyurethane foam, sandwiched between the wood panels to provide thermal resistance and noise reduction.
