Warranty Value Assessment: Making Smart Decisions
2023-12-20 6 min read
Not all garage door warranties are created equal. Understanding what's covered—and what's not—can save you thousands of dollars and plenty of frustration down the road.
Types of Garage Door Warranties
Manufacturer's Warranty
- Lifetime warranty on sections - Common for steel doors - Limited lifetime on hardware - Springs, hinges, rollers - 3-10 years on finish - Paint or coating
Installation Warranty
- Labor warranty - Varies by installer - Workmanship guarantee - Ensures proper installation
Our 3-Year Warranty
At Clute Garage Doors, we stand behind our work with a comprehensive 3-year warranty that covers all parts we install, all labor for warranty repairs, with no pro-rating — full coverage , and it's transferable if you sell your home.
The Bottom Line
A strong warranty provides peace of mind, but it's only as good as the company behind it. Choose a reputable installer who will be around to honor their warranty.
