How much does a garage door cost?
Garage doors are priced per door by type and whether they're electric. Get an indicative supply-and-fit figure below.
Choosing a garage door
- 1Type and operation
Up-and-over is cheapest; roller doors save space; sectional doors insulate best. Electric operation adds cost but convenience.
- 2Insulation
If the garage is (or may become) a habitable room, an insulated door is worth it — see garage conversions.
- 3Measure the opening
Single and double openings differ a lot in price; measure width and height before quoting.
A new garage door is a quick kerb-appeal win and, if a conversion is on the cards, the insulated versions do double duty. Match the choice to the plan for the space — storage or future room.
