RESIDENTIAL DOOR COMPANY IN ALBANY, NY 

  • What Brand & Sizes are the standard sizes of residential garage doors that you carry?

    We are a C.H.I. Overhead Doors dealer & sizes range from 8' wide to 20' wide & standard heights are 7' and 8' tall. Off sizes are also available and vary by individual door series.

  • Can my garage door be painted?

    Many residential garage doors can be painted or also com pre-painted in different colors. Please see your owner's manual for specific painting instructions. Most of our commercial doors can be powder coated & we offer many different colors to match the look of your home or building.

  • Can I replace a section of my door, or do I need to replace the whole door?

    Yes, replacing only a section of your garage door is possible in some cases; however, depending on the extent of the damage or age of the door, the entire door may need to be replaced. Contact us to evaluate your specific situation and quote the best & most cost-effective solution for your individual situation.

  • What is R-value, and how does it benefit me?

    R-Value is a measure of thermal efficiency, the higher the R-value the greater the insulating properties of the door. Many of C.H.I.'s garage doors are built with insulation, either polyurethane or polystyrene. To indicate the effectiveness of the insulated garage door, each door is rated with an R-value. The higher the R-value, the better the insulation properties and the greater the resistance is to heat flow.

  • I'm having a garage door opener installed. Will I need special bracing where the operator bracket mounts to the door?

    The top section of the door must be reinforced with a horizontal strut, which is the same length as the door width when installing an opener. The garage door opener bracket will attach below the strut.

  • What maintenance does my garage door require?

    Our garage door systems are built for long-lasting performance and daily use, but we recommend preventative maintenance on your garage door annually. Or if you suspect a problem, feel free to call us anytime for service.

    I have a low ceiling in my garage. Will a garage door and opener work in this space?


    Yes. A residential garage door requires a minimum of 4 1/2” of headroom space. Your garage door system may need a low-headroom track system or a low-headroom-torsion rear-track system. For a garage door opener, you will need slightly more headroom (about 6 1/2” minimum).

  • What are your hours?

    We are a full-service provider with normal operating hours of Mon-Fri 7 am - 4:30 pm but since we know things don't always happen during the day, we also provide 24hr Emergency Service 24/7 all year. Don't Hesitate to Call When You Need Us!
