Cedar
– This is the most popular wood type mainly because it is naturally resistant to rot, decay, insects, and moisture. It is thick enough to insulate and sound-proof, but light enough to be easier on the garage door opener.
Plywood
– This is the simplest and most affordable type of wood for garage doors. The material is very easy to get and shape. We can add a layer of foam core for additional insulation and durability.
Redwood
– This premium wood is often built with layers to reduce the risk of cracking and warping from extreme temperatures. It is great in absorbing and blending with paint or stains.
Mahogany
– This highly premium wood is the ultimate combination of beauty and durability. It is already elegant by itself, but can further be customized with different decorative cuts and finishes.
Reclaimed Wood
– There is a growing trend among modern homes to use reclaimed wood because of its distinct, rustic look at a more affordable price tag. It is also the greener choice because it doesn’t require cutting down new trees and involves recycling old wood.
