  • Gallantry Series DuraGreen Garage Doors
  • BUILDING PRODUCTS Magazine (5/12/2008)
  • Gallantry series DuraGreen carriage house-style garage doors are SCS-certified to have at least 88 percent recycled content. The doors are made with recycled Douglas fir fused with exterior-grade resins and waxes. The doors will not split, warp, or crack like wood and will not dent like steel, according to the manufacturer. The panels feature an embossed wood-grain texture and feature the look of custom, handcarved wood doors. 800-322-9075.

  • BUILDING PRODUCTS Magazine (5/12/2008)
  • This garage door features a Douglas fir internal frame and Western red cedar V-groove surface material, providing exceptional durability and strength, according to the manufacturer. It is finished with decorative hardware, including clavos and ring pulls that make the door appear to swing open when it actually rolls overhead. This design is a popular choice for Mediterranean, Southwest, and Tudor architectural styles, the maker says. 800-241-0525.
  • Vintage Wood Garage Doors
  • BUILDING PRODUCTS Magazine (5/12/2008)
  • The Vintage wood door collection was designed as an entry-level, stain-grade wood door, according to the maker. Its stile-and-rail construction makes for a thinner, 15/8-inch-thick door instead of the maker's typical custom flush 31/2-inch-thick door, so it is less expensive and lighter. Nine design options can be interchanged and used on different sections of a door to create a more unique look. The collection comes ready to paint or stain. 888-768-3667.
  • Traditional, Carriage House and Estate Series Garage DoorsIn Looks from Old World to Modern Day, Carriage-Style Garage Doors Accent Any Home
  • BUILDING PRODUCTS Magazine (5/9/2008)
  • High-end home builder Gary Carlson pays a lot of attention to the garage doors he installs. Not only does he budget $10,000 to $20,000 for a semi-custom or custom wood door, he sets aside $1,000 just for the door's decorative hardware. On one of his Tuscan-style homes (priced at $2.8 million), Carlson, president of Trillium Homes in Castle Rock, Colo., wanted the garage door to match the home's architectural style. He added to each door a small speakeasy -- a window with iron grilles -- as well as large clavos to match the entry door.
