Replacing a garage door can dramatically improve a property’s curb appeal. However, homeowners first need to know the replacement cost and ensure the project fits their budget.

We will discuss the factors affecting the cost of replacing a garage door.

Exploring the costs

Garage door replacements usually range from $600 to $1,700. The main factor impacting the price is the size of the garage. Here’s how much you’ll need to spend:

  • Two single-car garage doors: $1,050 to $4,650

  • Double two-car door: $700 to $3,900

  • Three single doors: $1,500 to $6,900

  • One single door and one double door together: $1,250 to $6,300

Many other factors determine the cost of replacing a garage door:

Garage door type

The owner needs to consider what type of garage door they need. Again, the price varies significantly:

  • Tilt-up garage doors: $450 to $1,500

  • Sectional garage doors: $450 to $1,700

  • Roll-up garage doors: $600 to $2,300

  • Glass roll-up garage doors: $800 to $5,900

  • Carriage garage doors: $950 to $6,100

  • Walk-through garage doors: $950 to $4,700

  • French garage doors: $1,600 to $5,100

Material

Most garage doors consist of affordable steel or aluminum, but there are also high-end solutions available. There are several elegant materials, such as glass and wood. On the other hand, vinyl is perfect for people who want a low-maintenance model.

Here are the average costs of common garage door materials:

  • Aluminum: $500 to $2,700

  • Steel: $550 to $2,800

  • Wood: $850 to $4,200

  • Vinyl: $750 to $2,400

  • Fiberglass: $750 to $2,650

  • Glass: $900 to $4,700

Brand

Another factor is the garage door brand. The most popular garage door manufacturers include:

  • Amarr: $400 to $4,100

  • Clopay: $450 to $4,450

  • Overhead Door: $750 to $4,000

  • Hormann: $420 to $6,200

  • Raynor: $550 to $3,900

  • CHI Overhead Doors: $480 to $2,800

  • Wayne Dalton: $700 to $7,000

To get the best deal, consult a trusted garage door contractor and find out if they have connections with any of these brands. Besides recommending the best model, they may also negotiate a lower price.

Locks

Owners can opt for locks on some automatic garage door motors. They provide extra safety and protection for valuable items, allowing entrance only from inside the house. On average, installing a lock costs $100 to $400.

Labor

The labor costs of replacing a garage door generally range between $200 and $500. These costs vary by the number of doors and your location.

Insulation

Insulated garage doors feature at least one layer of polyurethane or polystyrene. The more layers they have, the more robust the insulation. A higher number also increases the replacement costs.

In general, insulated garage doors go for $500 to $3,000. Remember that wood, glass, and other high-end materials are harder to insulate, leading to a higher price.

Windows

Some people may customize their garage doors with windows. The price for regular aluminum or steel doors with windows starts at approximately $700. The cost goes up, depending on the style and number of windows.
