Ottawa’s Go-To Garage Door Installation

You can technically do it yourself, but we recommend getting a professional to help. Garage door installation involves heavy lifting, precise measurements, and knowledge of the mechanical components, things that can be tricky for someone without the right tools and expertise. Hiring a professional can save you time and frustration and make sure the door operates smoothly from day one.

The cost to install a new garage door, including labor, varies in Ottawa, depending on the style, material, size, and any custom features. At Berintek Garage Doors our prices for garage door installation start as low as $2199.99! For a more accurate estimate please contact us today.

On average, installing a new garage door usually takes about 4 to 6 hours, depending on the complexity of the door and the condition of the area. If we’re replacing old tracks or making adjustments, it could take a bit longer. But typically they are completed within a day.

Yes! Our garage door installations come with a warranty that covers labour, parts, and panels, with options that can last up to 6 years.

Most residential garage doors come in standard widths, making it easier to match common garage openings. The most common sizes include:

• Single garage door: 8 feet wide x 7 feet high
• Double garage door: 16 feet wide x 7 feet high
• Smaller single door (compact cars): 7 feet wide x 7 feet high
• Larger custom doors (for SUVs or workshops): Up to 20 feet wide

These measurements work for most homes, but if your garage is older or uniquely designed, you may need a custom-sized door.

At Berintek Garage Doors, we offer both standard and custom garage door sizes to fit your home perfectly, and we help you measure to make sure you get it right the first time.

We generally recommend replacing the tracks when installing a new garage door, especially if they’re worn or damaged. Old tracks can make the door work harder and less efficiently, which could lead to problems down the line.

It might be time for a new garage door if yours has wear and tear, isn’t operating smoothly, or is starting to look outdated. If the door is making strange noises, struggling to open or close, or if the panels are damaged, it could be worth replacing rather than repairing.

If insulation and energy savings are your priority, steel garage doors with polyurethane or polystyrene insulation are among the best options. These types often come with a high R-value, which measures thermal resistance, ideal for Ottawa’s colder months. Doors with a higher R-value help regulate indoor temperatures, reduce heating costs, and provide soundproofing benefits.

Whether you need an insulated garage door depends on how you use your garage:

• If your garage is attached to your home or used as a workspace, insulated garage doors are highly recommended. They help regulate temperature, reduce noise, and improve energy efficiency, especially during Ottawa’s cold winters and hot summers.
• If your garage is detached and only used for storage, a non-insulated door would be just fine for your needs.

Insulated garage doors also:

• Help prevent condensation and rust
• Add durability and strength

We recommend R-value 16 or higher for optimal performance in our climate. At Berintek Garage Doors, we guide you through insulation options so you can choose what works best for your lifestyle and budget.

Yes, in many cases you can replace just the garage door without changing the opener, as long as the opener is still in good condition and compatible with the new door’s weight and movement type. However, if your opener is outdated or not powerful enough, upgrading it during installation can save time and hassle down the road. Our professionals can assess your current setup and let you know if your opener can safely handle the new door.
