What makes a Carriage House door different

• Every door is made to order. Carriage House encourages customizing: you can start from one of its designs or bring your own, and it says designs are limited only by what will work as a door.
• Real materials. The Wood Collection is built from hand picked woods such as clear western red cedar, mahogany, Douglas fir and reclaimed barn wood, with true wood or composite trim.
• Exact sizes. Wood doors are built in quarter inch steps, so the door is made for your opening rather than the nearest stock size.
• Doors, gates and shutters that match. Carriage House also builds drive gates, walkway gates and shutters in the same designs.

Carriage House has locations in Sacramento, California; Kansas City, Kansas; and Old Fort, North Carolina. It sells its doors through authorized dealers, and we are one in Central Maryland.

Carriage House builds its doors in six collections: handcrafted Wood, Steel, Contemporary, the insulated steel Modern Collection, swing and slide doors, and StableWood. Any design can be changed: another wood, other windows, other hardware, or a different size. Send us a model number, a photo of a door you like, or a sketch, and we will quote it.

From the Wood Collection specification pages on carriagedoor.com, checked November 2026. Carriage House also makes fire rated and hurricane and wind rated doors; ask us if your project needs either.

Headroom you need for a Carriage House overhead door

Carriage House can modify the track for garages with less headroom than this. For the opener, it recommends a ¾ HP motor for a standard ceiling opener, or a jackshaft opener that mounts beside the door on doors up to 850 pounds whose sections are close to the same size and weight. See garage door opener installation and repair.

From Carriage House’s frequently asked questions (carriagedoor.com), checked November 2026.

1. Find the look. Browse Carriage House’s collections, project gallery and brochures on carriagedoor.com. Save the doors you like, or note a model number.
2. Text us photos. Send photos of the front of your garage and of the inside above the door, where the track and springs go. Tell us what you have in mind.
3. Free estimate. We look at the opening size, the headroom and the side room, because a custom door is built to the exact opening, and we help you choose the details.
4. Choose wood and finish. Paint grade or stain grade depends on sun exposure, color and how much upkeep you want. Carriage House recommends clear western red cedar where the door gets a lot of sun or will be a darker color.
5. Choose glass, hardware and opener. Window glass, decorative knockers, handles, hinge straps and clavos, and an opener sized for the door’s weight.
6. Firm price, then the order. You get a firm price before any work begins. Carriage House says its order process can take from a couple of days to a few weeks, depending on where you are in the design and what phase of construction your project is in. It does not publish a standard build time, so ask about the schedule when you get your quote.
7. Finish and install. A wood door that is not factory finished must be painted or stained on every side within two days of delivery and before it is installed, or the warranty is void. Factory finishing saves that step. Then we install the door with its track, springs and opener.

Carriage House’s written warranty covers Wood Collection doors against defects in materials and workmanship for one year from purchase, and Steel Collection doors for three years. Both exclude the glass and decorative hardware, and both depend on the door being finished and cared for exactly as Carriage House specifies.

From Carriage House’s Wood Collection, Steel Collection and Factory Finishing warranty agreements (carriagedoor.com), checked November 2026. The warranties cover single family homes, for the original purchaser, and exclude labor, painting and transport. You should receive a warranty registration form at installation to mail to Carriage House.

Caring for a wood garage door

• Inspect the finish. Carriage House makes it the owner’s job to check the finish periodically. When it looks weathered, worn or thin, sand and refinish those surfaces the same way the door was first finished.
• Protect it from sun and water. Dark colors are not recommended on doors facing south or west; they raise the chance of splitting and cracking. Frequent water, such as washing with a hose, sprinklers or poor gutters, is excluded from the factory finish warranty.
• Expect wood to move. Some splitting, cracking and filler popping out of nail holes are natural in wood and are fixed by sanding and refinishing as part of normal maintenance.
• StableWood faces and trim take only water based paints with solar reflective pigments, in light colors; darker colors can make the material shrink and are not covered.
