If you’re in the market for a garage door, consider whether you want a door with or without insulation.

As a homeowner in Southeast Florida, you might believe insulation offers little value and will only produce an unnecessary expense. After all, the weather remains hot and humid for most of the year, so what benefit can you derive from adding insulation to your home? Explore the reasons why you should insulate your garage door below.

    The absolute best. They came out on a Saturday and were able to fix my garage door in less time than it took for me to... tell my neighbor what was wrong with it when she saw them working on it. Fixed the problem, programmed a new remote, and fixed the outside keypad all for less than the other companies wanted just to show up to and give an estimate. I can't say enough good things about these guys. They are reliable, more than fair priced, and warranty their work for a year. 100000% would refer them to all of my clients, neighbors, and friends. Thank you to Julio and Eric!!read more

He also made a few minor tweaks to my door to ensure it’s running great. Amazing company with fair and honest pricing. I highly recommend them and would definitely use them again.

    I did my homework and found The Doorman to replace my old garage door with a hurricane proof new one. They promptly... replied to my emails and explained the details, which were many, and came out for an estimate which was reasonable as compared to other bigger vendors. Jim and Keith did not try to oversell me and helped me choose the best door in my budget. They custom built my door to specs and took care of all the permits which was great. Keep in mind it did take a few weeks to make the door, so order in enough time for delivery you want. Best part was Cory who installed my new door very professionally and very friendly too and did an amazing job! I was not very excited about buying this; however, now I am very pleased and love how quiet and smooth it runs and also looks clean. Worth every penny and will call them if service is needed as they were very prompt and courteous. Happy customer!read more
