When Should I Replace My Garage Door With a New One?

How long a garage door should last, and the signs it's time to replace it.

A good-quality garage door can last about 20 to 25 years with yearly maintenance and prompt repairs. Leave dents and scratches too long and rust sets in; leave a failing door too long and your home becomes easier to break into.

Signs It's Time for a New Door

  • It needs repairs more and more often.
  • Rust, rot or dents are spreading across several sections.
  • It's drafty, noisy or uninsulated, and the garage is cold.
  • It looks tired and lets down the rest of your home.
  • It lacks modern safety and security features.
