As a proud homeowner, you understand the significance of a well-maintained and visually appealing property. Among the many aspects that contribute to your home’s overall curb appeal and functionality, the garage door stands out as a prominent feature. Not only does it serve as the primary entry point for your vehicle and possessions, but it also plays a crucial role in enhancing security and insulation.
Let’s understand the steps involved in replacing a garage door.
Initial Assessment and Consultation
The first step in replacing your residential garage door with RCI Doors™ is to schedule an appointment with our team of expert technicians. This initial assessment and consultation are crucial to understanding the current condition of your garage door and determining the best course of action for repair or replacement.
In-Depth Inspection
During the initial assessment, our skilled technicians will conduct a thorough and detailed inspection of your existing garage door. They will carefully examine the door’s structure, components, and mechanisms to identify any signs of wear or damage.
Repair vs. Replacement
Based on the inspection findings, the technicians will provide you with an honest and transparent assessment of your garage door’s condition. If minor issues are identified that can be addressed through repairs, they will present you with the available repair options. However, in cases where the garage door is beyond repair or has reached the end of its lifespan, our garage door expert will recommend a replacement.

Style vs. Function
In addition to understanding your preferences, the technician will also consider various stylistic and functional aspects that play a role in selecting the perfect garage door for your home. Factors such as the architectural style of your house, the surrounding environment, and the level of insulation needed will be considered.
Security Requirements
