Kansas City weather can swing from ice storms to humid summers in a single calendar year. When your garage door is the largest moving element on your home’s façade, durability isn’t optional—it is essential. CountBricks specializes in specifying, estimating, and installing steel garage doors Kansas City MO homeowners depend on for security, curb appeal, and long-term value. Our AI-powered estimating platform produces line-item accuracy in minutes, so you know the exact materials, labor hours, and costs before any panel is ordered.
Strength Meets Style
• Steel doors resist warping in the Midwest’s humidity
• Factory-applied finishes stand up to road salt and hail
• Insulated cores keep conditioned air inside and noise outside
• Modern panel profiles and window options elevate resale value
From 100-degree July afternoons to sub-zero January wind chills, thermal movement can fatigue lesser materials. CountBricks recommends 24-gauge steel with polyurethane insulation rated R-12 or higher. Our Esti-Voice system factors Kansas City’s average degree days into every quote to ensure the correct insulation thickness and weather seal kits.

Single-layer 25-gauge doors start around $1,100 installed, while triple-layer 24-gauge insulated panels average $2,400.
Opening Size
Double-wide (16' x 7') openings add 35-40 % more panel steel and require heavier torsion springs.
Wind-load Reinforcement
Kansas City’s gusty thunderstorms can demand additional struts and impact-rated hardware, typically adding $150-$250.
