We supply and install new garage doors across Coquitlam in a wide range of styles and price points. Most of the steel doors we install come in single-, double- or triple-layer construction, with a choice of insulation and panel thickness. Here's how the three compare.
Single-Layer Doors (1000 Series)
- One layer of steel with no insulation.
- A clean exterior at the lowest price.
- Best for detached garages and sheds where heat loss doesn't matter.
- Lincoln: 25-gauge steel; Heritage: thicker 24-gauge steel.
Double-Layer Doors (2000 Series)
- Steel exterior, polystyrene insulation and a vinyl backing.
- Sturdier, quieter and more energy-efficient than a single-layer door.
- Lincoln: 25-gauge; Heritage: 24-gauge.
Triple-Layer Doors (3000 Series)
- Steel outside, an insulated core and a steel interior skin — the strongest and quietest construction.
- Polystyrene (about R-6 to R-9) or polyurethane (about R-14 to R-19).
- Our most popular choice for attached garages and homes with rooms above the garage.
- Lincoln: 27-gauge both faces; Heritage: 24-gauge exterior, 27-gauge interior.
| Series | Construction | Insulation | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1000 | Single steel layer | None | Detached garages, lowest cost |
| 2000 | Steel + foam + vinyl back | Polystyrene | Everyday use, better comfort |
| 3000 | Steel + core + steel | Polystyrene R-6–9 or polyurethane R-14–19 | Attached garages, quietest, most efficient |

Understanding Garage Door Warranties
- The manufacturer's warranty covers defects in the door itself — from one year to lifetime depending on the product and component.
- Check how long it lasts, exactly what it covers and whether labour is included.
- Manufacturers rarely cover problems caused by poor installation — that's what the installer's warranty is for.
