Frequently Asked Questions
How to install a commercial garage door?
Installing a commercial garage door is a complex process, even more so than a residential installation. Commercial doors are larger, heavier, and need specialized components. Given the heavy parts and complex components, it’s easy to hurt yourself or damage the doors or other equipment during installation. Because of this, we recommend contacting us for commercial garage door installation.
