Choosing the Best Material for Your Garage Door Replacement

Nothing quite matches the warmth and authenticity of a real wood garage door. From cedar and redwood to mahogany, a wood door creates a luxury feel that is impossible to fully replicate with synthetic materials. However, real wood requires a commitment to maintenance. To prevent rot and sun damage, you must restain or repaint these doors every few years. At Orlando FL Quick Garage Door and Gate Repair, we often suggest real wood for homeowners who want a truly custom, high-end look and don’t mind the upkeep required to keep the material pristine.

For those who love the look of wood but hate the maintenance, faux-wood composites offer the perfect middle ground. These doors feature a durable fiberglass or PVC overlay that looks exactly like real timber but won’t rot, split, or shrink. These composite materials handle the intense Florida sun without fading, giving you the “carriage house” aesthetic without the Saturday afternoon sanding and staining. Our team can show you samples that feel and look so real, your neighbors won’t be able to tell the difference.
