Homeowners ask us every day: “What will it really cost to add or replace a garage door?” The honest answer is that garage doors installed prices vary, but with CountBricks the guesswork disappears. Our AI-powered estimating engine listens to your project brief in real time, references live material pricing, and returns a fully scoped cost breakdown faster than you can grab a tape measure.
• Door type and material – steel, composite, wood, or glass each carry different price points
• Insulation rating – single-layer, double-layer, or polyurethane-filled panels
• Size and opening style – standard 8' x 7' sectional costs far less than a custom 18' x 8' carriage design
• Hardware and track quality – galvanized standard parts vs. heavy-duty powder-coated kits
• Opener technology – belt drive, smart-home integration, and battery backup add convenience and cost
• Labor complexity – structural framing, electrical rough-in, and haul-away fees influence the bottom line
Industry reports often cite a national average of $1,200–$1,800 for a mid-range 16-foot steel door installed. Those reports are published once or twice a year. By contrast, CountBricks pulls hourly updates from supplier APIs and recent field invoices uploaded by contractors in our network. The result is location-specific clarity—for example, recent CountBricks projects show Houston homeowners paying $1,540 on average for the same door while Denver owners hover closer to $1,710 due to freight and insulation requirements.
