Garage door size affects fit, function, and cost. Orange County homes range from narrow Old Town Tustin lots to 3-car Northwood Pointe garages. Here's a guide to standard sizes, custom options, and how we help you get the right fit.
Standard Sizes
Single-car: 8x7, 9x7, 9x8 feet. Double-car: 16x7, 18x7, 18x8. 3-car: two singles plus a double, or custom. Most Northwood Pointe and Sunny Hills homes use standard sizes. Extension spring replacement and garage door cable repair use the same width - we measure before ordering. Commercial overhead door sizes vary.

Narrow and Custom Widths
Old Town Tustin, North Laguna, and historic neighborhoods often have non-standard widths. We measure and order custom. Lead time varies. Weatherseal and insulation retrofit may require custom seals. Custom garage door design and install handles odd sizes. Don't assume standard - we'll confirm. Orange County has plenty of 7-foot and 7.5-foot widths that need custom doors. Call (949) 529-7743 for a measurement.

Height and Headroom
Standard height is 7 or 8 feet. Low headroom needs special tracks or high-lift. Wall-mount and jackshaft openers fit low headroom. We assess headroom before recommending. Battery backup installation fits most configurations. SeaCliff, Balboa Peninsula, Amerige Heights - we've seen every setup. Urgent Garage Doors serves all 34 cities.
3-Car and Oversized
3-car garages have three separate doors or one large plus one single. Each bay has its own springs. Northwood Pointe, Vista Del Verde, Kerrigan Ranch - 3-car is common. Oversized doors for RVs need heavy-duty springs. We install and service both. Extension spring replacement for older 3-car setups. Orange County luxury and executive neighborhoods - we come to you.
