⚒️​ What Goes Into a Proper Garage Door Installation?

A garage door is part of a system. For safety and durability, the size of each component, their alignment and tension are crucial for a proper garage door installation.

It involves:

  • Taking accurate measurements on-site before making an order
  • New tracks, springs, cables, and rollers all matched to your door
  • Panel fixing and complete system balancing
  • Installation and programming of the garage door opener
  • Adjusting and testing the safety sensor
  • Conducting the final trial run and cleaning up the whole area

We believe the work is only completed when the door operates smoothly, and you have tested it yourself.

Quick response on time and thorough explanation. Trent was amazing patiently helping my 89 year old uncle who is hard if hearing on getting his new remotes programed. I highly recommend Optimal Garage Doors. Will definitely use them again!

I called at 9:45 am and Trent arrived 45 minutes later. What I thought might be a battery problem turned out to be a broken motor on an outdated system. Trent gave me options and got to work immediately, no delay, no waiting for parts, no stopping until the job was finished several hours later. He even helped me set up my app and programmed my openers and keypad. He was friendly, efficient, polite and did a quality job. I will definitely use them again. C F

I received servicing of my garage door and the Optimal scheduling representative was able to get the repairman out within a couple of hours. Matt was very professional, thorough and prompt in the repair. He was able to explain everything clearly and show me the options I had. Matt and optimal garage doors saved the day and now I can go to my Christmas party!

I called them in a panic. My garage door stopped operating. Their comprehensive website drew me to them. Trent came out right away and gave me a thorough run down of our system and possible issues. He referred me to another company that dealt with our type of door but offered a number of alternatives to fit various budgets if we decided to replace. Great company, responsive and very professional.

I cannot even begin to put into words how grateful I am for the service from this company. My garage wouldn't open. Luckily we found optimal garage doors. Matt arrived on time, he was very friendly and knowledgeable, quickly repaired a broken spring, and serviced my track and door. It's stressful when this happens, but now I feel so relieved. Thanks guys, you have a customer for life.

Had a problem with the remote. Called Optimal, got a next day appointment. Matt showed up right on time, did a thorough check up and replaced the remote at no charge. Would highly recommend Optimal for any garage door problems.

Everything Orange County Homeowners Ask Before a New Garage Door Installation

Q: How long does garage door installation take?

Most regular installations are done within 4 to 6 hours and on the same day. If you go for custom or oversized doors, the time may extend a bit. We’ll provide an honest estimate when you schedule your free consultation.

Q: Do I need a permit to install a garage door in California?

Permit rules will differ from City to City within the Orange County and LA County. Simply a like-for-like replacement will probably not need a permit while a new building or other structural changes might. We will let you know about the requirements of your specific city at the time of the consultation.

Q: What brands of garage doors do professionals recommend?

We are capable of installing all popular brands such as Clopay, Wayne Dalton, Amarr, and CHI. For the most part, we suggest Orange County residents go with insulated steel doors for their strength, low maintenance and the great performance in the Southern California weather. We are always ready to assist you in choosing the best brand and model for your house.

Q: Should I install a garage door myself or call a professional?

If you want our honest opinion, go with a professional one. Setting the right spring tension, locating the tracks properly, and combining the opener all need a professional training and experience. An improperly fitted door lead also to a loss of your manufacturer warranty. What you pay for installation will be a very small percentage of what you might have to shell out to fix a failed DIY attempt.
