Navigating Garage Door Choices in Different Weather Conditions
Rain and/or snow: For regions prone to rain or snow (like ours), selecting the right garage door material is crucial for longevity. Wood and aluminum are less suitable for these wet conditions. The moisture can cause wood to rot and aluminum to rust, compromising the door’s functionality and appearance. In such environments, materials like steel, vinyl, or wood composite are recommended. These materials are better equipped to handle excess moisture without deteriorating, ensuring your garage door remains functional and visually appealing despite the weather.
Extreme cold weather: Conversely, in areas experiencing extreme cold, the materials of your garage door matter just as much. Wooden and aluminum doors are not the most reliable in freezing temperatures. Extended exposure to cold can cause these materials to become brittle and more prone to damage. In such scenarios, garage doors made from steel, vinyl, or wood composite are more durable and can maintain their integrity even in colder climates.
Extreme hot weather: When living in areas with sweltering heat, it’s essential to consider the material of your garage door carefully. In such climates, wood and vinyl doors might not be the wisest choice. Due to their nature, wooden doors are likely to soak up environmental moisture, particularly in humid settings, leading to expansion and possible structural damage such as splitting or cracking. Similarly, vinyl doors might not retain their shape in high temperatures, affecting their aesthetic appeal. For hot climates, opting for materials like steel or aluminum can be more beneficial, as they withstand heat better.
Should you require assistance, our team of skilled garage door experts is ready to guide you in selecting the ideal door for your location, regardless of the climatic conditions.

- The substantial weight of garage doors can lead to severe accidents if they are not installed correctly.

At GVA Garage Doors, we provide clients with various new garage door types that add value to their property. If you are fresh out on ideas of the latest trends or the best garage door style for your new home, we can help. Below are some of the new garage door types that are popular these days:
Roll-Up Garage Doors
These are garage door options popular in commercial applications. Its design comes without frills and is ideal for having limited ceiling space since it rolls up.
Sectional Garage Doors
Sectional garage doors are named this way due to being made up of numerous panel sections. The panels are connected using hinges, which roll inside whenever the door opens or closes.
Side-Hinged Garage Doors
Side-hinged garage doors are the simplest when it comes to the mechanics. It is similar to a barn door with a two-door opening.
Slide-to-the-Side/ Horizontal Sliding Garage Doors
This type of garage door, as the name suggests, opens by sliding to the side. It is one of the first styles of garage doors, designed if your garage has little headspace.
Canopy Garage Doors
When this garage door opens, it moves upward and creates a shape similar to a canopy. It is a solid garage door available in different variations.
Garage Door Opener Types
GVA Garage Doors use and install various garage door openers depending on the type of garage door you have. We have the most common types, which are:
Chain-Driven
Chain-driven garage door openers use a metal chain that pushes up the trolley to open and close the door. They are a good choice for durability and affordability, though they may be noisier than other types.
Screw-Driven
Screw-driven openers have wire wrapped around a threaded steel rod. This rod lifts the door with the wire unravelling when the door is lowered. This opener is dependable but needs extra care and isn’t sturdy enough for larger doors.
Belt-Driven
This type uses a rubber belt to move the trolley, making it less noisy. It also doesn’t need too much maintenance.
Wall-Mounted
Wall-mounted openers use a motor that powers the wires and pulleys that lift the door. The good thing about this is it works with any type of garage door, though some may be on the expensive side.
Direct Drive
This opener’s trolley is the motor, so the engine also goes with the rail. Even so, direct-drive openers are silent.
High Lift Garage Doors Conversion
GVA Garage Doors also offers high lift garage door conversions. If you have a high garage ceiling but a low garage door, converting it into a high lift garage door is an excellent idea. Doing so can help you fit different types of vehicles. With a high lift garage door conversion, you can finally make use of the unused head clearance you have.
Converting your garage door into a high lift will mean changing the trajectory of the door tracks. Hence, the doors should extend vertically before closing into the garage. We can do this by installing new vertical tracks, which our technicians will put above your current door opening. We will also replace several other parts of the garage door and install new ones.
Garage Door Track Lift Types
At GVA Garage Doors, we can install garage door track lifts of other types besides a high lift. We can convert your existing garage door or install your new one with the basic types: standard lift, high lift, and vertical lift.
- Standard Lift: It has a vertical track and a curved section that turns back to the rest of the horizontal track. This mechanism allows areas of the door to raise and move.
- Vertical Lift: It has a vertical track and a standard lift, with an extra vertical track a little away from the interior wall. This lift track type is common in commercial and industrial applications.
- High Lift: It has a vertical and horizontal track and a high lift extension. This lift track type works with both residential and commercial applications.
Garage Door Panels Replacement
Like the garage doors, the garage door panels needed to be sturdy and durable. They need to be able to handle things such as heavy rain, high winds, snow and hail, and even collisions. However, it is normal for garage doors to give out after years of use, and the panels are among its parts that are often the first to break down.
If your garage door panels start to crack, bend, or come loose, it is likely time to replace them. Replacing the panels is the best solution and will extend the life of an old but fully functioning garage door. Continuously using a garage door with broken panels is dangerous. It is best to get them checked by a professional and replaced when necessary.
Garage Door Damage Sections Only Replacement
