Amarr vs. Northwest Door for Garage?

7 years ago

last modified: 7 years ago

Got price quotes from two companies and there's only a $20 difference. One is Amarr Stratford, one is Northwest Door Modern Tech. Does anybody know if one brand stands out above the other?

I'm planning on getting a style like below, with frosted glass windows, so any input on that would be great too.

Is this cost over value?

Do you have a third estimate from another company? Say one that offers CHI Overhead Door or Wayne Dalton?

Take a look at the warranty from the manufacturer, this will tell you the quality of the product.

This may not apply for your particular case, but:

Check the Amarr website for the actual design layout of the garage door you chose and the width of your door opening. You need to look at the specs for this info - the modeler tool on the website wasn't accurate. I was going to use Amarr for a carriage style door, but I had a narrower width opening...and they did that size in 3 panels. I wanted 4 panels, so I chose another manufacturer.
