5 Factors to Consider When Choosing a Residential Garage Door in Monroe, NC

There are many garage doors that range from a few hundred dollars to thousands with the latest modern features and several important factors to consider in choosing the right garage door. 

This quick guide prepared by Overhead Door Company of Charlotte, a division of DuraServ, will give you an overview of garage doors and will help you make that decision in Monroe, NC.

What is a garage door and its importance?

A garage door, or popularly known as Overhead door, is a large door of a garage that can be lifted via a track or rail, either manually or by an electric motor. Usually, garage doors accommodate automobiles or other types of vehicles.

A garage door is important because it is part of the main house. It offers several benefits such as:
  • protects garage from outside elements
  • used for entry or exit of your home
  • creates a secure space for vehicles or personal belongings
  • enhances the curb appeal of your house


What to look for when buying a residential garage door?
In choosing your garage door in Monroe, NC, there are several options available in the Monroe door market. Most homeowners check pricing first, while other consider beauty.

  • Pricing Cost

Garage door prices range from a few hundred dollars to many thousands. Design, quality of materials, and construction affect its cost. Usually, less costly doors have a shorter life span and require more maintenance as compared to expensive and top-quality ones.

In actuality, the cost of garage doors varies depending on materials, mechanism design, type or model, and of course the size.

  • Materials and Construction

Nowadays, garage doors can be made from different materials such as aluminum, galvanized steel, vinyl, and wood. High-quality and expensive galvanized steel or aluminum doors do not crack, bend, or damage easily, even less likely to rust.

Wood insulates effectively, while vinyl is cheap but has some temperature concerns. Each has its strengths and flaws, but somehow it does serve its purpose.

  • Design Style

There are several design options available, from manual to automatic overhead garage doors. Collection of options are available such as Overhead Door Courtyard Collection Garage Doors, Overhead Door Durafirm Collection Garage Doors, Overhead Door Impression Collection Garage Doors, or Overhead Door Ribbon V5 Collection Garage Doors.

  • Durability 

Though expensive doors are high-quality with less maintenance, it all depends on how you use it and well-maintained. Not all doors last forever, eventually, they all require professional garage door repairs because of weather conditions, over usage, unexpected accidents, and hazards, or simply old age. Always consider garage door maintenance and routine check-up, to protect and lasts longer life-span use of your garage door.   

  • Purpose 

Most homeowners buy garage doors that look beautiful. Enhancing a homes' curb appeal, that gives a sense of pride and social prestige within their community. While for others, they invest in garage doors with the option of selling their property at a much higher price when the market goes up.

Whether your consideration is cost, or looks, it is important that it serves its purpose.

How Often Should You Schedule Your Commercial Doors Maintenance in Concord, NC?



There would be times roll-up doors can break down unexpectedly, making your workers susceptible to harm. When roll-up doors operate normally, most facility workers are not aware that these doors could be dangerous and hazardous during a break-down.

Do your workers know that some commercial garage doors or industrial doors weighs more than half a ton?  Imagine the potential danger if a roll-up door fails, and falls on one of your workers. To avoid such unexpected accidents and hazards from happening, it is vitally important to implement "predict and prevent" or ‘pre-emptive solutions’ like preventive maintenance programs in Concord, NC.


Preventive maintenance is regularly or routinely scheduled maintenance performed on equipment and devices, to reduce potential damage, which may result in unexpected downtimes and to extend lifespan.

Below are some situational scenarios of what could go wrong if your loading dock doesn’t have maintenance services as required:
·         Upon opening the door, the chain breaks and the door drops.
·         While the door ascends from the top of the frame, suddenly the drive chain jumps the sprocket and the door falls.
·         The drive sprocket disengages itself from the shaft and the door drops.

That is why, some great companies like Overhead Door Company of Charlotte, a Division of DuraServ has Planned Maintenance Program to protect your loading dock investment and reduce lifetime ownership costs such as:
·         regular equipment checks that keep them running as they are designed
·         built on a professional, no-cost and no-obligation survey 
·         cost-effective maintenance 
·         several frequencies that meet business needs
·         conducted by our team of factory-trained and experienced technicians


Whether you want to check our program, or you have plans to install new commercial roll-up doors for your loading docks, our Charlotte NC Roll-up Door service office has several commercial roll-up doors models to offer:

Overhead Door’s Rolling Steel Doors are built to last the lifetime of the building with a little maintenance cost, big dollar-savings, and increased profits.


What is the Importance of Preventive Maintenance?

The importance of preventive maintenance should not be neglected because its role is significant to the effectiveness of the loading docks’ system.

In practice, preventive maintenance is regular and routine checking of equipment and devices for problems and troubleshooting them before any failure can occur. It may consist of calibrations, lubrication, inspections, part replacements, adjustments, or cleaning.

Some businesses do not use preventive maintenance because of several factors like:  
·         takes a lot of time, effort, and ability
·         increased costs from excessive maintenance
·         additional maintenance resources required

However, in the long run, the benefits outweigh the setbacks both practically and beneficially such as:
·         better preparation for maintenance work
·         improved scheduling
·         lower overall maintenance costs
·         extend the lifespan of your equipment
·         increase operational efficiency, safety, and reliability
·         reduce the malfunctioning of equipment
·         reduce costly downtime
