Service FAQ

How do I measure my garage door for a replacement?

Garage doors are measured by width first, then height. A standard two-car door is typically 16′ × 7′, while a single-car door is usually 9′ × 7′ or 8′ × 7′. Our technicians confirm exact opening measurements during a free in-home estimate so your new door fits correctly.

What is the difference between an insulated door and a non-insulated door?

An insulated garage door has polystyrene or polyurethane insulation inside the panels. A non-insulated door is hollow metal only. Insulated doors run quieter, look finished on the inside, and help keep Florida heat out of attached living spaces or rooms above the garage.

What kind of maintenance should I perform on my garage door?

Have your door lubricated and adjusted every year to keep it running smoothly and safely. Our $119 tune-up includes a 21-point safety inspection, lubrication of moving parts, a balance check, hinge tightening, and minor adjustments.

My garage door is very loud. What can I do?

The two most common causes of a noisy garage door are worn side rollers and lack of lubrication. Yearly lubrication helps a lot, and nylon rollers can greatly reduce friction and noise. We can evaluate both options on a service call.

When is a good time to install a new garage door?

Replace a door that is unsafe, unreliable, faded, sagging, or hurting curb appeal. Garage door replacement consistently ranks among the top remodeling projects for return on investment. If you have a wood door that needs heavy refinishing, a new pre-finished steel door is often the better long-term value.

How should I choose the best garage door for my home?

Start with the material that matches the care you want (steel, wood composite, wood, or aluminum). Then pick a design, color, windows, and hardware that complement your home. Finally, decide how much insulation and quiet operation you need—especially if you have living space above or next to the garage.

Are specialty-size garage doors available?

Yes. Specialty sizes are available on many residential and commercial models. If your opening is non-standard, contact us for a free measure and quote—we work with unusual openings regularly across Central Florida.

Do windows have to be at the top of my garage door?

No. Windows can be placed in different sections of the door layout. Top or second-from-top windows usually give the most natural light while maintaining privacy and security.

Can you replace broken garage door glass or window inserts?

Yes. Overhead Door of America can replace garage door glass and window inserts. Call 321-576-0125 or schedule a service visit and we will match the repair to your door model.

Should I secure my garage door with a lock?

If you have a properly installed electric opener, a separate lock is usually unnecessary—the opener itself secures the door. Industry guidance (DASMA) discourages using a lock with an opener because someone may try to open the door while it is locked and damage the system. If you need a lock, we offer models that are appropriate for your setup.
