There are numerous factors governing the fluctuation in prices of garage doors. That is to say, if you’re installing the door yourself, you’re saving yourself double the amount. Likewise, you’ll have to pay more if you use a high wind rated garage door, or if your door has a different size. The material of the door greatly influences price hikes too. Usually, you can get a garage door ranging from $300-$3000.

Here are some average typical garage door prices:

$300-$500 (not installed) – This price varies depending upon the the type of door you choose; without installation prices. Within this range, you can get a door with foam insulation and steel clad too. Using usual installation tools, you can easily install the door with the help of 2-3 people by following the instructions that come with the door. This range can get a typical 16′x7′ garage door.

$400-$700 (installed) – A typical 16′x7′ garage door inclusive of installation prices. Within this range, you can easily buy a rolling up wood door, or an aluminum door with outside plywood, or simply a tilt up door. Aluminum doors make a good choice because they are light weight and resist corrosion. However, they do tend to get damaged easily.

$600-$700 (installed) – Including professional installation, a garage door in this price range is a cheaper but new 16′x7′ non-insulated one.

$750-$1,200 (installed) – This range would offer a new 16′x7′garage door inclusive of professional installation. Cheaper types are mostly just a single metal plane , whereas more expensive ones come with foam insulation sandwiched between two thick metal panels. More high priced models include thicker metal sheets (extra two inches thicker) with more insulation, along with weather tolerance agents. Usually, steel doors are a better choice because neither do they rust, nor do they need repainting as much as wooden doors do. On the other hand however, it is difficult to repair them if they get dented.

$800-$1,000 (installed) – these garage door prices will get you a new 16′x7′ sectional roll-up insulated door, designed to be painted, plus professional installation.

$1,200-$2,000 (installed) – Inclusive of professional installation, this category of garage door prices can get you a 16′x7′ standard higher-grade roll-up stained wood door panel. This price may go up or down depending upon any additional designs on the panel, or the type of wood used.

$1,200 (installed) – a larger 16′x8′ good quality steel garage door that has panels constructed of two steel panels that sandwich 2 inches of polyurethane foam with a pre-painted low maintenance exterior. These garage door prices include installation.

$1,300 (installed) – a new 16′x7′ high wind rated garage door, includes installation.

$2,500-$3,000 (installed) – a new custom-built wood door. Wood is popular because of its natural look and style. However, wood doors require regular maintenance, since it may start cracking and warping with age. These high garage door prices may also be caused by the irregular size of the door, such as a high end oversize 18′x8′ door with a motor. Price includes professional installation.

Garage door prices are influenced by many factors, and the best way to find out about such prices is to shop for garage doors first.
