Comparing door styles
General characteristics of each style - your exact options depend on the manufacturer and product line.
Sectional steel
Steel, insulated or non-insulated
The most common residential garage door style in North America. Horizontal panel sections hinge together and roll up along a pair of vertical-then-horizontal tracks. Available as a single steel skin or, more often, an insulated build with a foam core between two steel layers.
Carriage house
Steel, composite, or wood-faced
Styled to look like the swing-out carriage or barn doors of an older building, but operates on the same overhead track as a standard sectional door. Usually finished with decorative hinge and handle hardware to complete the look.
Modern flush
Steel or aluminum
A flat, smooth-faced panel design with no raised molding or ridges - a minimalist look that pairs with contemporary architecture. Built on the same sectional-track mechanism as a traditional panel door.
Full-view glass
Aluminum frame with glass or acrylic panels
Aluminum-framed sections glazed with glass (clear, frosted, or tinted) instead of solid panels. Common on modern homes and commercial storefronts for natural light; typically offers less insulation than a solid steel door unless the glazing itself is insulated.
Raised panel
Steel
The traditional embossed-panel look most associated with a residential garage door, available in long- or short-panel patterns. Comes insulated or non-insulated, same as sectional doors.
Commercial roll-up
Heavy-gauge rolling steel
A rolling steel curtain (often slatted) built for higher daily cycle counts and larger openings than a residential sectional door - loading docks, warehouses, and commercial bays.

Questions
Frequently asked
Straight answers about garage door repair in Philadelphia. Still unsure? Ask us directly.
Why do springs seem to break more in winter here?
Cold makes steel more brittle and less forgiving under tension, and Philadelphia's winters are cold enough to matter. A spring that's been near the end of its cycle life all year often finally lets go on the coldest morning, not gradually. That's why call volume for broken springs climbs in January and February.
My house is a rowhome from the 1950s - will parts even fit?
Usually yes, but not off a generic shelf kit. A lot of the housing stock here was built with narrower openings and lower headroom than modern standard doors, so springs, tracks, and brackets often need to be sized to the original opening rather than swapped for a one-size kit.
Is it worth fixing a door that's original to the house?
Sometimes. If the panels and track are sound and it's one failed part, repair makes sense. If the track's warped, the panels are dented past square, or the opener is decades old and struggling, we'll tell you replacement is the better spend rather than repairing something that's going to keep failing.
Do you install new garages or just fix existing ones?
We work on doors and openers that already exist - repair and replacement. We don't do ground-up new construction garage builds.
