Warranty Claim Tips

  • Garage door panel and opener warranties are always separate — track both
  • Spring failure is the #1 garage door issue but many warranties limit spring coverage to 3–5 years
  • Take photos at installation including hardware closeups

HomeScore Pro Tips

  • A garage door replacement costs $1,500–$8,000 without warranty
  • Insulated doors (R-16+) from Clopay and C.H.I. carry the strongest panel warranties
