One of the major drawbacks of getting a new wooden garage door is the price. Wooden garage doors can add a lot to the overall style of any home but that does come at a cost because wood is a more expensive material to use than other types such as vinyl and steel. If you’ve decided to consider a wooden garage door then it’s important to know exactly how much more you’re going to have to pay before making a decision as to which door to get. In this article I’ll be talking about wooden garage door prices in a little more detail.

Wood garage doors tend to cost around 20% extra on top of what you’d pay for a similar sized steel door but this is only a very rough figure. While this might not sound like too much you should remember that garage doors are often quite expensive anyway and hence you need to be sure you can afford this cost. Make sure you buy from garage door suppliers who know what they’re doing and have a reputation for quality.

Whenever you pay for wooden garage doors you should always make sure it comes with a warranty. The last thing you want to do is buy an expensive wooden door only for it to break or start to show signs of wear and tear in the near future so the longer the warranty the better. In the majority of cases wooden garage doors come with a standard 1 year warranty but for many people it’s worth paying a bit extra to get a longer warranty and hence have peace of mind that you’re covered should something go wrong.

The materials used in your wooden garage door will also affect the price. For example, wooden garage door prices may also be affected by the type of paint, the amount of security features and the type of wood that you buy. A simple door would probably cost you around $500 but they can be much more expensive than this depending on what you choose to go for.
