Candler-McAfee garage door installation runs through our shop constantly. Set in Georgia's humid subtropical region, these doors meet summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, corrosion that creeps across hardware in the muggy air, and high year-round humidity that rusts springs, cables, and fasteners, and we choose parts that outlast it.
Garage doors in DeKalb County live with a warm, humid climate of sultry summers, abundant rainfall, and damp conditions that work hard on metal hardware. For Candler-McAfee that means watching for summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, corrosion that creeps across hardware in the muggy air, and high year-round humidity that rusts springs, cables, and fasteners; we factor it into every repair and every new-door spec.
Candler-McAfee homeowners usually call us about one of a few things: swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity, moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity, and rusted track hardware and seized rollers. We diagnose the real cause — not just the symptom — before quoting a flat rate.
Garage door installation is more than swapping panels — done right, it's a coordinated project that involves measuring the rough opening, ordering the correct door size and configuration, scheduling delivery, removing and recycling the old door, installing new tracks and hardware, mounting and pairing an opener (if needed), and verifying every safety feature is calibrated to UL-325. Our turn-key installations handle every step including permits and HOA paperwork where applicable, so the homeowner's only job is choosing the door style.
We install residential single-car, double-car, and oversized RV/garage-shop doors, plus commercial sectional, rolling steel, and fire-rated installations. Every install includes a written measurement and configuration check before we order, color and finish confirmation with a physical sample, and a complete balance and safety test after install. The 10-year workmanship warranty backs the installation itself — separate from the manufacturer's warranty on the door and opener.
Most residential installs are completed in 4–6 hours including old-door removal and clean-up. Commercial installs vary by door type — a typical sectional commercial door installs in one day, while large rolling steel may take 1–2 days depending on opening size and motor configuration.
Rolling steel, sectional, and high-cycle commercial doors.
Building a new garage or addition
New construction installs in Candler-McAfee require coordination with the framer on opening dimensions, headroom, and side-room clearances. We can spec the Glenwood Hills opening before framing begins.
Existing door past repair value
When repair quotes exceed 50% of new door cost or the door is structurally compromised, installation of a new door is the right economic call for a DeKalb County home.
Aesthetic remodel of the home
Garage doors take up 30–40% of street-facing facade on most Candler-McAfee homes. A new install dramatically updates curb appeal.
Insulation/energy upgrade
Attached garages with old uninsulated doors leak conditioned air. A new R-12 to R-18 insulated install can reduce HVAC load measurably in Candler-McAfee.
Storm or accident damage
Insurance claims often cover full door replacement after major impact or storm damage. We document for the claim and install the replacement anywhere across DeKalb County.
Common causes & what we fix
Replacement for damaged door
Single-event damage (vehicle, storm, accident) often warrants full replacement rather than partial repair, particularly if the tracks are bent or panels are cracked through — a common Candler-McAfee call.
End-of-life on existing door
Doors over 20 years old across Glenwood Hills often have multiple components at end of life simultaneously — replacement bundles the work into one project.
Code compliance upgrades
Battery-backup safety codes in many states and the UL-325 (safety auto-reverse) standard have evolved. New installs across DeKalb County bring everything to current code.
Insulation upgrade
Going from a non-insulated to R-18 door requires full replacement; you cannot retro-fit foam to a thin-skinned non-insulated door cost-effectively — something our Candler-McAfee estimators flag often.
Style change
Switching from raised-panel to carriage-style or full-view is a full-door replacement — the rail and track configurations differ. It's a popular upgrade among Glenwood Hills remodels.
