Which door should you choose?

You have to compare equivalent types of doors. Be it Isolex, Garaga, or Cedo, the most Important thing to compare is the thermal insulation of the polyurethane doors, thus its thickness.
The different insulation values used are: R12 (1 3/8" thickness) R16 (1 ¾") and R18 (2") for a maximum insulation performance.

What is the difference between polystyrene and polyurethane?

Polyurethane has two major assets that define its superiority: Doors insulated with polyurethane have an insulation value twice as high as the polystyrene R 16 v/s R-8. Furthermore, the structural strength given by this insulating material plays an important role in the life expectancy of your garage door.

What door sizes do you offer?

We offer a vast selection of sizes. Our garage doors are custom made in height and width. We manufacture doors from 36 to 336 inches wide by 18 to 384 inches high.

Can I change my door panels?

Each case is specific but usually, your weather-seals, your wheels and your springs have a limited life expectancy. Furthermore, you will notice that your new door might not have the same weight as your old one. You will therefore have to change your springs as well.

What is the minimum clearance necessary for the installation of a garage door?

Many dimensions are required to plan the installation of a garage door and a motor. You need at least 4 inches around the garage opening. You also need to calculate the space required for the door opener. The clearance needed is 12 inches for the door and 2 inches for the motor. It is also important to check the depth of your garage and other doors in the environment.

Should I choose a steel or aluminium door?

The material used will mostly impact the weight of the door. An aluminium door is lighter and will therefore increase the longevity of your system's hardware. Rust is not a factor as our steel doors are guarantied against rust perforation for 25 years.
