DODDS GARAGE DOOR News and Announcements

Some Townhouse Garage Doors are old One-Piece doors that are obsolete and parts are not available and some are Sectional doors which run on vertical and horizontal tracks. If your townhouse complex has old One-Piece doors, there are many solutions to upgrade the property image and value. Sectional garage doors available today are insulated steel providing insulation as well as rigidity to resist major puck and ball dents from hockey/soccer playing in the driveway. While the new Sectional garage doors are insulated steel they also have a natural wood grain look.
Patterns and styles are available in a variety of colours including the latest popular Coach and Carriage style doors.

Boards of Directors are looking to not only maintain property values but to enhance property values at every opportunity.

Understanding and knowledge of how your Garage Door System works (number of vehicles/cycles, wear and tear items) will help you micro-manage this asset, assist in your budgeting and provide indicators as to when items should be replaced thus important information for your Reserve Fund Study.
