This guy.
Stoked.
1. its going to be insulated
2. its not going to be hearing aid beige
3. its not going to be broken
This are good things
The cost...ooof. Oh well. You only live once and if you can’t spend your money on a door...what can you spend it on?

look at that janky-ass old door

I wish I had spent more when I replace my garage door. I got the cheapest Menard’s aluminum door. It got hung up once and pulled itself apart. Now it’s not strong enough to be moved by the opener at all.
I’m also surprised that the opener didn’t stop when it felt resistance, but again I got the cheapest option.

Thats why this one is being replaced. its folded three times and now the metal is so weak it can’t be opened or closed but by hand.

Well I’m going to be someti me soon, because a co uple of weeks ago I cut a slice out of mine with the tractor FEL bucket . Which is what you get for focussing on two things at once - I was so worried about whether the rollhoop behind my head would clear the balcony above the garage that I forgot to watch what the sharp thi ng sticki ng way out the front wa s doing :-(.
Insura nce job, fortunately, but I have a $1000 excess , so I expect I’ll be picking up most of the tab.

Sutherlands was pretty cheap for mine but no insulation and I installed it myself because I’m handy(cheap) .

I could have done it myself, but...I just didn’t want to.

Oh it was super awkward to do a 20' wide door solo, I should have paid.

Your door is made of cheap steel. It's not aluminum, throw a magnet at it, it'll stick

Have done many of them myself. Not a big deal.

Have the contractor write a higher estimate to cover damage plus cost of most of the door

Your door is made of steel not aluminum. Throw a magnet at it, watch it stick.

Thats from it folding. That door should've a cross strut on each section because it's a hollow door with no support

I am excited for you!
I got a quote on Friday for new doors and I’m very excited. This coming Friday I get my electrical rough-in inspection, then I can finish insulating and dry walling in the garage. Then I’ll have them come out, I’m getting 2 new insulated doors with 2 Liftmaster 8500 jackshaft openers. I’m beyond stoked! Price is also... ooof.

My guess? Oppo was linked to by a Vice article or something about the G/O clusterfuck, people clicked Oppo, saw your post as first, then it started trending, and... here we are.
Congrats on the door!
