What our Clients think about us
Your satisfaction is our priority.
What Is a Glass Garage Door Install?
A full replacement or new install of a sectional, full-view aluminum/glass door.
You get modern daylight, privacy/glare control options, and durable, low-maintenance frames—with today’s safety: balanced springs, photo-eyes, tuned opener, and weather-seals suited for OC conditions.
Why Choose Urgent Garage Doors
Design-through-install pros: Profiles, anodized/powder-coat finishes, muntin layouts, and privacy glazing.
Engineered right: Correct track radius, spring sizing (IPPT), wind-load packages, and opener pairing (belt or wall-mount).
Coastal-smart: Stainless/galv. fasteners, sealed bearings, and drain-minded weatherstrips.
Detail finish: Precision reveals, quiet travel, and clean cable/track geometry.

Upgrading to full-view for modern architecture or ADU/gym conversions
Replacing dated paneled doors with frosted or tinted privacy glass
Coastal homes needing corrosion-resistant frames and hardware
Insulated glass selections for temperature/noise comfort
Integrating wall-mount (jackshaft) openers to free ceiling space
Design & Measure
Verify rough opening, headroom/backroom, jamb condition; choose frame finish, glass type (clear/tinted/frosted/laminated/IGU), and muntin layout.
Spec & Engineering
Size torsion springs (IPPT); select track radius (12"/15"); choose wind-load if required; confirm opener compatibility (belt or wall-mount), top-section reinforcement.
Removal & Prep
Safely remove old door/opener; inspect/repair framing; set new bracket anchors into structure; floor and wall protection.
Professional Installation
Assemble/hang aluminum sections, install heavy-duty hinges, sealed nylon rollers, torsion system, and tracks/back-hangs; set glass stops and seals.
Opener Integration & Sealing
Install/re-hang opener; set chain/belt tension; fit bottom astragal, perimeter weather-seals, and optional threshold; check drain paths.
Balance, Tune & Handover
Balance to neutral hand-lift; program limits/force; perform UL 325 photo-eye and 2×4 reversal tests; multi-cycle quiet check; haul-away and provide care notes.

Costs & Timelines (What to Expect)
Typical install time: 3–6 hours single; 4–8 hours double (site-dependent).
Key cost drivers: Glass type (clear/tinted/frosted/laminated/insulated), frame finish (anodized vs. powder), wind-load, section size, opener choice.

Air/water intrusion and corrosion on aging frames/seals
Security/privacy gaps with cracked or plain glass
Higher energy and noise without insulated or laminated glazing

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear vs. frosted vs. tinted—what’s best?
Clear maximizes light; frosted preserves privacy; tinted reduces glare/heat. We can mix lites per row.
Tempered, laminated, or insulated glass?
Tempered is code-standard; laminated adds security and sound control; IGU boosts comfort/quiet. Many clients choose laminated IGU for coastal homes.
Will a glass door be heavy or loud?
We size springs to IPPT, use sealed nylon rollers, and tune the opener—result is quiet and balanced.
Can I keep my opener?
Often yes. For a cleaner look and space savings, many upgrade to a wall-mount (jackshaft) with battery backup.
How’s privacy at night?
Backlit garages are visible through clear glass. Choose frosted/tinted or laminated privacy lites to control night visibility.
Maintenance near the beach?
Rinse frames/seals periodically; we spec stainless/galv. hardware and provide a coastal care plan.
