"Excellent transaction. Got the Dab low profile hurricane rated door. Truck still fits in the garage! Install looks good. Spring tension seems good. What I also liked is they were very competitive in price. I would definitely recommend them for garage door sales and installation."

"Rosbel was amazing and went above and beyond my expectations. My garage had issues that were proactively corrected by Ross and I could not be happier with his work ethic and technical expertise. My installation was completed within a few days of contract signing and on the day and time promised which is rare in the industry. Overall, I am extremely happy with the value I received for my money and wholeheartedly recommend iGarage doors and Rosbel."

A chain-drive opener costs less, but it’s louder and needs more upkeep. If your budget allows, a belt-drive model is often the smarter long-term buy, especially for an attached garage with a bedroom above where noise matters. The decision between a chain or belt opener comes down to your budget and needs, and your garage door opener installer can help you choose an option that best suits you.
Choosing the right horsepower for your garage door opener is crucial for safe and efficient performance. Your garage door’s design and material determine the required horsepower. A single-car garage demands a half horsepower rating, while a two-car garage requires a rating between three-fourths and 1.25 horsepower. Selecting the proper power level ensures optimum performance and durability over the life of the opener.
Plan on a quick garage door tune-up once or twice a year. Tighten the chain or belt, lubricate moving parts, test the safety sensors, and swap out weak batteries in the remotes or backup unit. A few dollars in lubricant and 30 minutes of work can fend off costly repairs, keep the door running smoothly, and help the opener hit its full life expectancy.
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
Budget for garage door opener installation costs based on factors such as horsepower, opener type, lighting, sensors, battery backup, labor, and more.
