Garage Door Garage Door Installation San Francisco, CA
For garage door installation around San Francisco, the details that matter are local: intense afternoon UV that dries out weather seals and bottom gaskets, fine road and yard grit that grinds rollers over time, and mild but steady humidity swings that quietly seize hinges. Our crews stock corrosion-resistant parts built for exactly those conditions.
If you've owned a garage door through a few San Francisco seasons, you know the pattern: warm, dry summers and cool, wet winters, moderated by long stretches of sunshine and modest rainfall brings intense afternoon UV that dries out weather seals and bottom gaskets, fine road and yard grit that grinds rollers over time, and mild but steady humidity swings that quietly seize hinges. We size and protect replacements accordingly.
When San Francisco doors quit, it's usually broken torsion springs on high-cycle suburban doors, worn nylon rollers on doors cycled several times a day, noisy, vibrating doors from loosened hardware, and drifting travel limits on aging chain-drive openers. Our diagnostic isolates the true cause so the fix actually lasts.
Garage door installation is more than swapping panels — done right, it's a coordinated project that involves measuring the rough opening, ordering the correct door size and configuration, scheduling delivery, removing and recycling the old door, installing new tracks and hardware, mounting and pairing an opener (if needed), and verifying every safety feature is calibrated to UL-325. Our turn-key installations handle every step including permits and HOA paperwork where applicable, so the homeowner's only job is choosing the door style.
We install residential single-car, double-car, and oversized RV/garage-shop doors, plus commercial sectional, rolling steel, and fire-rated installations. Every install includes a written measurement and configuration check before we order, color and finish confirmation with a physical sample, and a complete balance and safety test after install. The 10-year workmanship warranty backs the installation itself — separate from the manufacturer's warranty on the door and opener.
Most residential installs are completed in 4–6 hours including old-door removal and clean-up. Commercial installs vary by door type — a typical sectional commercial door installs in one day, while large rolling steel may take 1–2 days depending on opening size and motor configuration.
New construction installs in San Francisco require coordination with the framer on opening dimensions, headroom, and side-room clearances. We can spec the Mission, Sunset, Richmond opening before framing begins.
Existing door past repair value
When repair quotes exceed 50% of new door cost or the door is structurally compromised, installation of a new door is the right economic call for a San Francisco County home.
Aesthetic remodel of the home
Garage doors take up 30–40% of street-facing facade on most San Francisco homes. A new install dramatically updates curb appeal.
Insulation/energy upgrade
Attached garages with old uninsulated doors leak conditioned air. A new R-12 to R-18 insulated install can reduce HVAC load measurably in San Francisco.
Storm or accident damage
Insurance claims often cover full door replacement after major impact or storm damage. We document for the claim and install the replacement anywhere across San Francisco County.
Common causes & what we fix
Replacement for damaged door
Single-event damage (vehicle, storm, accident) often warrants full replacement rather than partial repair, particularly if the tracks are bent or panels are cracked through — a common San Francisco call.
End-of-life on existing door
Doors over 20 years old across Mission, Sunset, Richmond often have multiple components at end of life simultaneously — replacement bundles the work into one project.
Code compliance upgrades
Battery-backup safety codes in many states and the UL-325 (safety auto-reverse) standard have evolved. New installs across San Francisco County bring everything to current code.
Insulation upgrade
Going from a non-insulated to R-18 door requires full replacement; you cannot retro-fit foam to a thin-skinned non-insulated door cost-effectively — something our San Francisco estimators flag often.
Style change
Switching from raised-panel to carriage-style or full-view is a full-door replacement — the rail and track configurations differ. It's a popular upgrade among Mission, Sunset, Richmond remodels.
