If your garage door panels are looking more like a modern art piece after years of wear and tear, it might be time to consider panel replacement. Sure, you could leave those dents and cracks as a testament to the wild adventures of suburban life, but let's face it - curb appeal matters. And so does having a functional garage door.
Garage door panels can take quite the beating from daily use and accidental bumps from basketballs or vehicles. Not only do damaged panels look unsightly, but they can also compromise the structural integrity of your entire garage door system. Think about it; if one link in the chain is weak, doesn't that make for an unreliable chain?Sometimes folks try quick fixes with duct tape or DIY patchwork—commendable for effort but not exactly what we'd call a lasting solution. For real peace of mind and functionality, replacing those battered old panels is often your best bet.
Now don't just go slapping any old panel onto your garage door; finding an exact match is crucial unless you're going for that eclectic mismatched look (spoiler: nobody's going for that). You'll want to match up materials—whether steel, wood composite or aluminum—and color finishes so everything looks seamless once installed.This isn’t always straightforward because manufacturers may discontinue certain models or colors over time. But fear not. With Simon Garage Door Repair’s help, we’ll find you something compatible—or whip up custom-made replacements if need be—to get things back into shipshape condition.
You might fancy yourself handy with tools—and maybe you are—but installing new garage door panels involves more than turning screws here and there. It requires precision alignment not just aesthetically but functionally too since poorly fitted panels can lead to issues down the road (and possibly another round of replacements).We've seen plenty come through our doors thinking they had their installation game locked down only to realize some tasks are better left in expert hands—that would be ours at Simon Garage Door Repair by the way.
All set with shiny new panels? Great. Now let’s keep them looking sharp longer than last season's fashion trends—which means regular cleaning using appropriate cleaners depending on material type plus yearly maintenance checks courtesy of professionals like us who know how these systems tick (or should I say 'slide'). Proper care goes miles toward preventing future damage which saves money because...well no one likes shelling out cash unnecessarily right?
