What You Get With a Professional Installation

Investing in a new garage door is more than a cosmetic upgrade; it’s a functional overhaul of the largest moving entry point in your home. Good Golly Garage Doors delivers a turnkey installation process that removes the burden from the homeowner and ensures a seamless transition from your old system to a modern, high-performance door.

We handle the safe removal and disposal of your existing door and hardware, including old tension springs and tracks that are hazardous without proper tools. The new installation includes mounting heavy-duty tracks, aligning high-cycle torsion or extension springs, and precisely calibrating the opener system.

Our doors include advanced weatherstripping, bottom seals, and insulation to create an airtight barrier against snow, rain, and wind. Upon completion, we conduct a comprehensive safety inspection to verify all emergency release cords, photo-eye sensors, and auto-reverse systems are operating within strict safety tolerances.

How the Installation Process Works

Replacing a garage door requires precision engineering to ensure smooth operation and long-term safety. Good Golly Garage Doors follows a standardized protocol that meets manufacturer specifications and local building codes.

Detailed Site Assessment

A trained technician measures the rough opening, side room, and headroom to ensure the new door fits perfectly, preventing air leaks or mechanical binding.

Removal of the Existing System

We release tension from the old springs, one of the most hazardous parts of the process, then remove and dispose of old panels, tracks, and hardware.

Installation of New Hardware

We mount vertical and horizontal tracks with perfect alignment to prevent binding and premature wear. Insulated doors are checked for intact thermal breaks, rollers inserted, and the spring assembly installed.

Spring Balancing and Opener Setup

Once the spring system is wound and balanced, the door should lift smoothly by hand and remain halfway open. We then program opener travel limits, sync remotes, and test the safety reversal system for optimal performance.

When Replacement Beats Repair

Homeowners often struggle to choose between repairing or replacing a garage door. Good Golly Garage Doors helps you determine the best option by considering several key factors:

The 50% Rule

If repair costs approach 50% of a new system and the door is over 10 years old, replacement is the smarter investment.

Safety Standards

Older doors often lack modern safety features like infrared sensors or auto-reverse systems. Missing or outdated safety mechanisms require replacement to meet current codes.

Energy Efficiency Failures

Uninsulated doors leak energy. If your garage or the room above it is always cold, installing an insulated steel door with polyurethane or polystyrene cores provides utility savings.

Structural Integrity Issues

Sagging, cracked, rusted, or rotted panels compromise safety and performance. These issues cannot be effectively repaired.

Recurring Breakdowns

Frequent service calls for springs, cables, or opener components indicate the system has reached the end of its lifecycle.

Why Professional Installation Is the Only Safe Option

DIY garage door installation is extremely dangerous due to the tension in torsion springs, which can cause severe injury if handled incorrectly. Professional installers at Good Golly Garage Doors use specialized tools and follow strict safety procedures to ensure proper setup.

DIY installation can also void manufacturer warranties. We protect your investment by installing doors to the manufacturer’s specifications so your warranty remains valid. Additionally, professional installation ensures long-term reliability doors must be perfectly level, tracks properly aligned, and components torqued correctly to prevent premature opener failure.
