To prepare for a new garage door installation with ACN Construction, you can expect a streamlined process where the project team manages the technical and administrative heavy lifting.
Before the physical installation begins, you should follow these steps:
- Schedule a Consultation: Contact the team to arrange a design-build consultation. During this site inspection, experts will assess your garage space, review material and style options, and confirm precise measurements.
- Select Materials and Styles: Decide on your preferences, such as steel, wood composite, or aluminum, and choose a style (e.g., carriage-house, contemporary flush-panel, or traditional raised-panel) that fits your home’s architecture.
- Permit Planning: You do not need to handle the paperwork yourself; the team coordinates all necessary permits and ensures compliance with local building codes for cities like Centennial, Aurora, Denver, and Littleton.
- Worksite Preparation: On the day of installation, ensure the garage is accessible. The professional team will handle the removal and disposal of your old door before installing new tracks, torsion springs, and the door itself.
- Final Calibration: Once the door is hung, the process concludes with opener wiring and safety sensor calibration to ensure the system is secure and operational.
