• It boosts home value – When you replace your garage door with a newer model, it is going to automatically improve the value because of the aesthetics as well as the function, security and efficiency it adds.
• It makes life easier – Older garage doors are much more difficult to maintain, and replacing with a modern door system reduces maintenance to almost nothing.
• It is far more efficient – Looking to cut heating and cooling costs? A new and fully insulated and airtight door is going to keep out the hot or cold air during the most extremes of weather. In many instances, this allows your new door to pay for itself.

• It boosts security – What is easier to breach, an old wooden door with loose glass panes or a metal door with tough seals and difficult to break glass panes. Doors are at least 1.75″ thick and feature metal skins to make them ultra-durable. This keeps your possessions in better shape as well as boosting home security. In fact, a huge number of home burglaries are instigated in the garage, so making it more secure is important.
• It is easier to use – Since the early 1990s, garage door openers have featured high end technologies known as rolling code technology. This makes it difficult to access them easily.

• It operates much more safely – The creation of photoelectric reversal systems ensures that doors stop in their tracks if anything passes beneath the door or attempts to enter as the door is descending.
