That price should be written down before the work starts, not guessed at over the phone.

Call (678) 679-2096

We’re home to Alpharetta homeowners who want the door measured, the price quoted in writing, and the work photographed before anyone asks for a signature. Marcus Deller runs the operation under The Haven Standard, which means Clause 1 applies on every job: a written scope and a written price come before any work begins. If you need a new door in Alpharetta, call (678) 679-2096 and you’ll speak to a live person, not a recording.

What Our Garage Door Installation Service Includes

Every installation we do in Alpharetta starts with a measurement, moves to a written quote, and ends with photos of what we found and what we installed. Here’s how each type of door works, and what you can expect from us on the job.

New Door Installation

A new door installation means removing the existing door, track, and hardware, then setting a brand-new door in its place. Alpharetta homeowners typically replace a door when the panels are dented beyond repair, the frame has shifted, or the door is 15 years old and the repair costs no longer make sense. Servo Garage Doors Alpharetta handles the full swap: we haul the old door away, install the new one, set the tracks, balance the springs, and photograph the finished work before we leave.

We quote the entire job as one flat price. That includes the door, the labor, the haul-away, and the hardware. If you’re replacing a door in a historic Alpharetta neighborhood like Downtown or Crabapple, we’ll match the panel style and window inserts to the house rather than slapping up whatever is on the truck.

Single Car Door

A single car door is typically 8 feet wide by 7 feet tall, though some Alpharetta homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s have 9-foot-wide singles. Single doors are common on bungalows, townhomes, and side-entry garages where the builder saved space. We install single doors in steel, aluminum, or wood, and we’ll spec the insulation level based on whether the garage is attached to the house or freestanding.

If your single door has a broken torsion spring or a bent track, you may not need a full install. We’ll tell you that on the estimate, because Clause 1 means the written scope says what’s wrong and what it takes to fix it, not what we’d prefer to sell you.

Double Car Door

A double car door runs 16 feet wide in most Alpharetta garages, although some newer builds in Avalon or Windward use 18-foot doors for wider bays. Double doors carry more weight, so the spring system matters more: a door that size needs properly sized torsion springs and balanced tracks or it will wear rollers and cables unevenly. We spec the spring size to the door weight, not the other way around.

Double door installations take most of a day. We arrive with the door, the track, the springs, and the opener compatibility details already worked out, because the written scope from your estimate tells us exactly what goes where.

Custom Garage Door

A custom garage door is one built to a non-standard size or a specific design, which happens more often in Alpharetta than people expect. Older homes in the Historic District may have unusual rough openings, and newer builds sometimes have oversized bays or architectural panel requirements. We’ve installed custom doors with carriage-house styling, full-view glass, and specific wood species matched to the home’s trim.

Custom doors take longer to source, so we tell you the lead time in the written estimate, not after you’ve paid a deposit. The price is set in writing before the order goes in, and we photograph the finished install against the order spec so you can see what you approved is what you received.

Steel Doors

Steel doors are the most common garage door in Alpharetta because they handle Georgia humidity and afternoon sun without warping. We install steel doors with three-layer construction when the garage is attached to the home, because the extra insulation layer keeps the garage cooler in August and cuts noise transfer into the house. A steel door with a baked-on finish won’t rust in the same way an uncoated panel will after a few Alpharetta summers.

We’ll show you the panel gauge and insulation R-value on the written quote, because the number tells you how the door will hold up better than a color swatch does. Steel doors from Clopay and Amarr are what we most often install in Alpharetta, and we stock replacement sections for both.

Wood Doors

Wood garage doors are the quietest statement a house on a street like Mayfield or Academy can make, but they weigh more and need more from the hardware underneath. We install wood doors with heavier-gauge track and uprated springs, because a solid cedar door can weigh twice what a steel door of the same size weighs. The finish is part of the job: we spec the sealant and the bottom weatherstripping for Alpharetta’s wet springs and humid summers.

Wood doors cost more and require a maintenance schedule, and we’ll say that in the estimate rather than pretending it’s a set-and-forget purchase. When you want wood, we install it properly. When you want the look of wood without the upkeep, we’ll show you steel doors with wood-grain embossing and let you compare photos side by side.

Brands We Service for Garage Door Installation

We install Clopay doors more than any other brand in Alpharetta. Clopay’s steel and wood-composite lines hold up well in North Georgia’s humidity, and we stock their replacement sections for the common panel sizes. When a homeowner wants a carriage-house door with real wood character but a steel core, Clopay’s Coachman series is usually where we start.

Amarr doors are the other brand we install regularly in Alpharetta. Their Classica line gives us a good range of window and panel configurations for HOA-governed neighborhoods, where the approved door style list matters as much as the door itself. We also service LiftMaster and Chamberlain openers on the install, because a new door with an old opener that can’t lift it is half a job. Whether you have Clopay, Amarr, LiftMaster, or any other make, we can install or service it.

Signs You Need Garage Door Installation Right Now

• Your door panels are dented or cracked through. A dented panel on a steel door is cosmetic. A crack that goes through the panel is a structural failure, and it means water and insects have a way into the garage. When multiple panels are cracked, a full door replacement costs less than replacing half the panels and painting them to match, which never quite matches.
• The door binds or shakes when it opens. A door that jerks on the way up is telling you the panels are pulling against the track, which means either the door has warped or the hardware underneath is failing. If a realignment quote comes back higher than the door’s remaining life is worth, we’ll say so, because the written estimate tells you both numbers side by side.
• The door is over 15 years old and you’re repairing it every six months. Alpharetta homes built before 2010 often have original builder-grade doors that were cheap to start with. When you’re on your second spring replacement in three years and the panels are rusting at the bottom corners, the math favors a new door. We’ll show you the repair history against the install price and let the numbers do the talking.
• You can see daylight or feel drafts through the door’s seams. Gaps between panels mean the door’s hinges and rollers are worn, but they also mean your garage won’t hold temperature. For attached garages in Alpharetta, that’s an air-conditioning bill problem as much as a door problem. An insulated steel door closes those gaps and pays part of its cost back in comfort.
• The door is off its tracks after a vehicle hit. When an SUV kisses a door panel hard enough to pop the rollers out of the track, the panel is almost always bent at the mounting point. You can straighten the track, but the door will keep pulling out of alignment because the panel is no longer square. At that point, a panel replacement pushes you close to the price of a full door, and we’ll put both numbers on the same written quote.

Our Garage Door Installation Process - Step by Step

Here’s how an installation with Servo Garage Doors Alpharetta works, from the first phone call to the photo record you’ll have in hand when we leave.

1. 1
   Call and schedule a measurement. You call (678) 679-2096 and speak to a live person. We schedule a time to measure the opening, check the headroom and side clearance, and look at the existing track and opener setup. Marcus Deller covers the Alpharetta area personally on most estimates.
2. 2
   Receive the written scope and flat price. After measuring, we write the scope: door size, panel material, insulation level, window configuration, spring spec, haul-away, and hardware. The price is flat. Clause 1 of The Haven Standard means you sign nothing before you see that number. If you have a written estimate from another company, bring it, and we’ll walk through it with you under our Free Second Opinion offer.
3. 3
   Approve the order and we file the paperwork. You approve the written scope, the door gets ordered, and we text you the expected install date. For in-stock steel doors, the install usually happens within a few days. For custom doors, we give you the lead time in writing before the order goes in.
4. 4
   Installation day. The technician arrives in uniform, walks you through the scope one more time, and then does the work: old door out, new door in, tracks set, springs balanced, opener connected if it’s part of the job. The balance is checked with the door at mid-height: if it holds without drifting, the springs are right.
5. 5
   Photo record and walkthrough. Before we leave, we photograph the finished install, the hardware, and the balance test. You get the photos along with your written warranty information. That’s Clause 4 at work: you see what was done, and you see what it looked like when it was done. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers the installation, in writing, with a terms page that spells it out.
