How are the garage doors made? Do they work with an opener?

    They are standard overhead doors with all of the finishes added to the face. The 4 horizontal panels are not visible in this photo but they are indeed there. This does add to the weight of the door but with a strong door opener even this is not an issue.

    i hope you have the right torsion springs for the added "lifted weight" of the door instead of just relying on a heavy duty opener, that's dangerous. This is a common mistake a homeowner would do and then wonder why parts failed prematurely. Beautiful Craftsmanship BTW!

    Thank you! And you are right. The door is and always should be well balanced when adding additional weight to an overhead door.
