Garage Door Panel Replacement

A damaged garage door panel doesn't always mean you need a complete door replacement. If your door is relatively new and only one or two sections are damaged, panel replacement offers a cost-effective solution that restores your door's appearance and functionality without the expense of a full replacement.

Panel replacement is ideal for damage from vehicle impacts, storm debris, attempted break-ins, or deterioration of bottom panels from Portland's wet climate. We assess your door's overall condition and provide honest recommendations about whether panel replacement or full door replacement better serves your needs and budget.

We start by inspecting your garage door to identify the damaged panel(s) and assess the door's overall condition. We take detailed measurements and photos to source the correct replacement panel. We work with major manufacturers to find panels that match your door's style, color, and specifications.

Once we have the correct panel, we schedule installation at your convenience. Our technicians carefully remove the damaged panel, taking care not to disturb adjacent sections. We install the new panel, ensuring proper alignment and secure attachment. We then rebalance the door, adjust springs if necessary, and test operation thoroughly.

The result is a garage door that looks great and operates smoothly, with the damaged section seamlessly replaced. Most panel replacements are completed in a few hours, minimizing disruption to your day.

While accidents happen, some panel damage is preventable. Be cautious when backing vehicles out of the garage—most panel damage comes from vehicle impacts. Keep tree branches trimmed away from your garage to prevent storm damage. Consider adding parking guides or sensors to help avoid accidental impacts.

Regular maintenance also helps prevent deterioration. Keep bottom panels clean and dry, especially in Portland's wet climate. Touch up paint chips promptly to prevent rust on steel doors. Inspect weather seals regularly to keep moisture out. These simple steps help your garage door panels last their full lifespan.
