Hi there, the garage doors are marine grade plywood face, averaging around $4-5k.

If I may humbly advise, never pick a stain color from a picture. It is best to always get a minimum of three stain samples of the same "color" but variant intensities. Bring the samples to the garage area and look at them there. Stain color is always different depending on lighting, permanent location and setting. I would suggest going to a flooring company and picking up some pieces you like then have a stain expert or the garage door manufacturer match that color. We do this all the time with our clients and the outcome is a success.

Is it possible to paint metal white garage doors to match closely to this stained color?
