    In need of some new insulated garage doors as mine has seemed to rust from the inside out and is dropping of rust chunks every time I open and close the thing.

    Does anyone have any strong recommendations good or bad on types of doors, styles, colors, installers in the north east metro, any other tidbits of information?

    Simple google searches have left me with more options than i know what to do with and narrowing it down has been difficult

    We put on Midland insulated garage doors on our current build. The main door is an 18′ x 8′ and the third stall is a 10′ x 8′. Their price tag is more than a Menards door or something of that quality, but it’s worth it in my opinion considering how often they function and how big of a PITA a poorly functioning garage door can be.

    Hormann openers are nice. They’re so quiet that you can barely tell if they’re functioning or not.

    We had a sub contractor who only deals with garage doors come install them. He assured us that if we had the slightest issue ever with the openers or doors, he’d be over to fix them. He also documents install dates and comes back at the 1 year mark to check things over and make any fine adjustments that may be needed.

    ***Be prepared to wait for good quality doors. Some have been delayed quite a bit

    Depending on what you order: size, style, color, you might have a long wait. Some doors are taking 6 months from order to delivery I’ve been told. whistling

    Lead times are down now but prices are up. Pretty every company makes a nice door if you can get through all of the sales speech to find it. The quality of labor varies wildly.

    I do not know who would be the dealer in your area but “CHI” brand is great quality.

    Yes, but we are along Pool 4 between Lake City and Wabasha. It doesn’t sound like you’re close to our area. If you still want it shoot me a PM
