AfterTrusted Garage Door Installation for Aurora Homeowners
New garage door installation in Aurora typically runs $700-$2,200 depending on door size, material, and hardware choices, and most projects are measured and installed within one to two weeks of your call. At Servo Garage Doors Aurora, we’ve installed over 18,000 garage doors since 2015, every one with a flat, written price agreed before any work starts and a documented photo record delivered when we leave.
We’re independently owned and operated under The Haven Standard, and we serve homeowners across Aurora, from the older ranch homes near Buckley Air Force Base to the newer builds in Southlands and the custom homes climbing toward Cherry Creek State Park. Marcus Deller built this company on a single rule: the customer sees the failed part, or in this case, the exact door and hardware, before anyone quotes a replacement. That founding rule is now Clause 4 of The Haven Standard, and it applies to every installation we measure.
Our phone is answered by a live person 24 hours a day, including holidays. Call (720) 477-6050 to schedule a free measure and written estimate. You’ll receive a flat price, a written scope, and no obligation to proceed.
What Our Garage Door Installation Service Includes
New Door Installation
New door installation is the full replacement of an existing garage door, including the door sections, track system, spring assembly, and hardware. Most Aurora homeowners need this when their door has reached the end of its service life, typically 15-30 years depending on maintenance and our dry, high-altitude climate, which accelerates seal and roller wear. When we measure for a new door, we photograph your existing header, jambs, and spring system, then deliver a written quote with the exact door model, R-value, and window configuration before any order is placed.
Single Car Door Installation
A single car door, typically 8 or 9 feet wide by 7 or 8 feet high, is the standard for Aurora’s older neighborhoods like Original Aurora and Hoffman Heights, where detached one-car garages are common. These doors require lighter-duty spring systems but demand the same precision in track alignment, since a smaller opening leaves less margin for error. We measure the rough opening to the quarter-inch, check for plumb and level on the jambs, and specify whether your existing torsion spring system can be retained or needs replacement to match the new door weight.
Double Car Door Installation
Double car doors, running 16 feet wide and 7 or 8 feet high, dominate newer Aurora construction from Tollgate Crossing to Tallyn’s Reach, and they carry significantly more weight across a wider span. The torsion spring system must be precisely calculated for the door’s total weight, and the track must be reinforced to prevent flexing that causes premature roller wear. We specify the wire diameter, inside diameter, and wind direction of your new spring assembly in the written quote, and we install it with a safety cable containment system that meets current IRC requirements.
Custom Garage Door Installation
Custom garage door installation covers non-standard sizes, specialty materials, and architectural designs required by HOA guidelines in communities like The Conservatory or Blackstone Country Club. We’ve sourced and installed carriage-house overlays, flush-panel designs in stained cedar, and full-view aluminum doors for modern builds in the Anschutz Medical Campus area. Every custom order includes a shop drawing for your approval, a confirmed lead time, and a written price that locks before fabrication begins, per Clause 1 of The Haven Standard.
Steel Doors
Steel garage doors are the most common choice in Aurora for their durability against hail, their resistance to the temperature swings that come with our 5,400-foot elevation, and their range of insulation options from single-layer to triple-layer sandwich construction. We typically specify 24- or 25-gauge steel for residential applications, with an R-value between 6.3 and 18.4 depending on whether the garage is conditioned space or attached to the home. Our written quotes break out the door, the track hardware, the spring system, and the opener compatibility, so you see where every dollar goes.
Wood Doors
Wood garage doors, whether solid cedar, redwood, or paint-grade plywood with overlay trim, respond to Aurora’s low humidity and intense UV by expanding, contracting, and checking if not properly sealed. We source from manufacturers who kiln-dry to Colorado specifications and pre-finish with UV-stable penetrating sealers, and we recommend an annual inspection of the bottom rail, where snowmelt and road salt collect. The Haven Standard requires that we document the moisture content of delivered wood doors with a pin meter reading, included in your photo record, so you have evidence of proper material condition at installation.

Brands We Service for Garage Door Installation
We install and service all eight major garage door brands, and we stock or can source OEM hardware for each. Amarr doors are a frequent choice in Aurora’s planned communities for their Stratford and Lincoln collections, which balance steel durability with carriage-house aesthetics; we’ve installed hundreds of Amarr units and keep their proprietary track brackets and bottom fixtures in stock. Wayne Dalton doors, particularly their TorqueMaster spring system, require specific winding tools and expertise that many competitors lack; our technicians are trained on the TorqueMaster Plus conversion and carry the correct winding components on every truck.
Craftsman doors, sold through Sears and now available through independent dealers, often use proprietary hinge and roller spacing that must be matched precisely during replacement to avoid binding; we’ve documented the specifications for every Craftsman model year back to 2005. Raynor doors, popular in Colorado for their WindLoad-rated options that meet Front Range wind codes, require reinforced track and jamb brackets that we order factory-direct to ensure code compliance. Whether you have Amarr, Wayne Dalton, Craftsman, Raynor, or any other make, we can source, fit, and warrant the installation.
BeforeAfterSigns You Need Garage Door Installation Right Now
- Sections are cracked, dented, or rusted through. Once steel door panels lose their factory coating and begin to rust, the damage accelerates, especially where Aurora’s road salt collects in winter. Rust weakens the panel structure and can spread to the internal stiles that maintain door alignment.
- The door has been hit by a vehicle and the track is bent. Even a low-speed impact can twist the vertical track out of plumb or damage the horizontal curve where the door transitions to the ceiling. A bent track causes rollers to bind, springs to carry uneven load, and eventually, premature cable failure.
- Your energy bills have risen and the garage shares a wall with conditioned space. Older uninsulated doors, common in Aurora homes built before 1990, conduct heat outward in winter and inward in summer. A new insulated door with proper perimeter weatherseal can reduce thermal transfer through what is often the largest uninsulated surface in the home.
- The door shakes, binds, or requires manual lifting assistance. These symptoms often indicate a door that has exceeded its spring system’s capacity, either through added weight from moisture absorption in wood doors or from spring fatigue. Continuing to operate a mismatched system risks opener gear damage or sudden spring failure.
- You’re selling the home and the door is a visible liability. In Aurora’s competitive market, a dented or mismatched garage door is one of the first defects noted in buyer inspections. A new door installation returns among the highest cost-to-value ratios of any exterior replacement, and we can schedule installation to coordinate with listing timelines.
Our Garage Door Installation Process - Step by Step
- 1
Free measure and written estimate. We arrive with a tape measure, level, and camera. We record the rough opening width and height, the headroom above the opening, the backroom depth to the first obstruction, and the side room available for track. We photograph the existing door, spring system, and opener mounting position. Within 24 hours, you receive a flat, written price and a written scope of work, per Clause 1 of The Haven Standard. No deposit is required to hold the estimate.
- 2
Door selection and order confirmation. If you accept the quote, we confirm the exact model, color, window layout, and hardware finish by email for your signature. Custom orders require a shop drawing approval before fabrication. We provide a confirmed installation date and a delivery window for the door and hardware.
- 3
Removal and disposal of existing door. On installation day, our two-person crew arrives in a marked vehicle, uniformed, with background-checked credentials. We release the tension from the existing torsion spring using winding bars, never screwdrivers or pliers, then dismantle the door sections, track, and hardware. All debris is removed from your property.
- 4
Installation of new door, track, and spring system. We install the vertical track plumb to within 1/8 inch, the horizontal track level, and the torsion spring assembly with the correct wire diameter and cycle rating for your door weight and usage pattern. We test the door balance with the opener disconnected, it should hold at any position between fully open and fully closed. We then install or reconnect the opener, adjust the limit switches and force settings, and test the safety reversal system with a 2×4 block.
- 5
Final inspection, photo record, and written documentation. Before leaving, we photograph the installed door, the spring tag with its wire size and cycle rating, the opener safety test result, and the completed work area. You receive these photos by email or text, along with your written warranty and the 365-Day Done Right Promise. Payment is processed only after you’ve reviewed and approved the completed work.
How Much Does Garage Door Installation Cost in Aurora?
A typical new garage door installation in Aurora runs $700-$2,200 depending on door size, material, insulation level, and hardware choices; see our Garage Door Installation cost guide for full details. A single car steel door with standard hardware and no opener replacement sits at the lower end of that range, while a double car custom wood door with full-view glass, heavy-duty track, and a new belt-drive opener reaches the upper end.
Several factors move the price within that range. Door material is the largest variable: single-layer steel is the least expensive, followed by insulated steel sandwich construction, then wood composite, then solid wood or aluminum full-view. Window inserts add $150-$400 depending on size and whether they’re insulated glass. Opener replacement adds $250-$550 for the unit plus installation. If your garage requires structural modification, such as raising a low header or adding a jackshaft opener where headroom is limited, we quote that separately with the same upfront written price.
To avoid overpaying, compare written quotes line by line, not just bottom-line totals. Some competitors quote a door price that excludes the spring system, or specify a 10,000-cycle spring when a 20,000-cycle spring is appropriate for daily use. Our quotes itemize the door, track hardware, spring assembly with cycle rating, opener if included, and labor, so you can verify what you’re receiving. Every estimate from Servo Garage Doors Aurora includes a Free Second Opinion clause: bring us any competing written estimate, and we’ll review it against our specification at no charge.
What’s included in our free estimate: the site measure, the written quote with line-item pricing, the shop drawing or manufacturer cut sheet for your review, and no obligation to proceed. Call (720) 477-6050 to schedule.
