Today, access to online videos, how-to blogs, and advice from your neighbors make us believe that we can accomplish almost any do-it-yourself (DIY) home improvement project.

Whether you’re looking to increase the value of your home before putting it on the market, your current garage door is damaged or you’re renovating the outside of your house and need a new door style to match, choosing the best garage door can be challenging.
Garage door damage can come in many shapes and sizes, but looking for signs that you may need to exchange just a section versus the door will depend on the amount of harm that was inflicted on the door.
The mechanics that allow your garage door to lift and lower involve the springs on either side of the door frame. The door is lifted through a transmission of energy from the springs attached to the door, the garage door opener, and the tracks. These forces all work together, but if one fails, such as a cable snaps or falls out of a drum, the garage will not function at all and will either fall or be unable to lift.
When it comes to a garage renovation, there’s an age-old debate about whether to repair your existing door or replace it altogether. While each approach has pros and cons, it’s worth noting that the repair cost is typically higher than it’s worth. Plus, replacing your garage door offers some unique benefits, too — especially if you have an old door.
