Aluminum Garage Door FAQs
What is the difference between Model 511 and Model 521?
The main difference is the frame. Model 511 has a narrow standard frame and comes in door sizes up to 16 feet. Model 521 has a wide, heavy-duty frame, comes in sizes up to 20 feet wide, adds a joint seal between sections for weather resistance and can be fitted to meet wind load building requirements.
Are aluminum and glass garage doors a good choice for Michigan winters?
They can be, if you plan for how you use the garage. Glass and aluminum generally hold heat less well than an insulated steel door, so they fit best on garages that are not heated. The aluminum frames resist corrosion, which helps in wet, salty winter weather. If you heat your garage, ask us to compare insulated door options too.
Will people be able to see into my garage?
With clear glass, yes, especially at night when the garage lights are on. That is the trade-off for the natural light these doors bring in. Think about what you store in the garage and how close it sits to the street, and talk through glass choices with our team before you order.
How do I care for an aluminum garage door?
Care is simple. Wash the frames and glass a few times a year with mild soap and water, and avoid harsh or abrasive cleaners that can scratch the glass or dull the finish. Keep rollers and hinges lubricated, and have the door balanced and inspected each year, since glass doors are heavy and depend on correctly set springs.
Can an aluminum door replace my current garage door?
In most homes, yes. Glass doors are heavier than many steel doors, so the springs, tracks and opener need to be matched to the new door, and the opening size decides between Model 511 and Model 521.
