What Affects Garage Door Cost?
- Door size and style: Garage door cost depends first on size. A single steel, non-insulated door is $1,100. A double steel, non-insulated door is $1,800. A double insulated steel door is $2,300. A double carriage style door is $4,500. Wood and full-view glass doors usually cost more than these steel prices.
- Insulation: Insulation adds about $500. A single insulated steel door is $1,600, compared with $1,100 without insulation. A double insulated steel door is $2,300, compared with $1,800 for a double steel door without insulation. Insulated doors are the usual choice on a garage attached to the house.
- Garage door opener installation: A new opener is optional. A chain-drive opener is $400 per door. A belt-drive opener is $550 per door and is the quieter choice for an attached garage. Leave the opener off if you are keeping the old one.
- Springs and what is already included: Installation and haul-away of the old door are included in the door price. A new door usually includes springs, so leave spring replacement at 0. Spring replacement on its own is a flat $400 for the job, not per door.
