Why try a door on your home first
A garage door covers a large part of the front of most houses, and a colour or window layout that looks right in a brochure can look very different against your own brick, stone or siding. Seeing it in place is the quickest way to rule options in or out, and it means the quote we give you is for the door you have already chosen.
If you are still deciding on a style, start with our garage door style guide, or read how to choose the right garage door. When you are ready, see what is involved in garage door installation.
Design Studio FAQs
Is the price in the Design Studio exact?
It is an estimate of the installed price for the door you design. The final price is confirmed after we measure your opening and check the existing track, springs and opener.
Which doors can I design?
The studio uses C.H.I. garage doors, in the models, colours and window options that we install.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. You can take a photo of your garage with your phone and design the door on the spot.
What happens to my photo?
Your photo is used to show the door on your home. If you send a quote request, the photo and your design are sent to our team so we can prepare your quote.
Do I have to upload a photo?
No. You can try doors on the sample home first and add your own photo whenever you like.
