Courtyard Collection® Garage Doors 9 Dec 2021, 6:01 am

The Door People at Overhead Door Company are proudly showcasing their Courtyard Collection® garage doors! These garage doors are made with an insulated steel construction and fashioned to resemble the elegant wood designs of traditional carriage house doors. They have the beauty of wood, the durability of steel and a classic design to enhance the architectural beauty of your home. The wood grain textured trim boards are resistant to dents and the elements. You can choose from a broad selection of windows and hardware options to further customize the look of your garage door.

Insulation and Design

Customers can choose a variety of designs. Its superior insulation has an R-value of up to 12.76. The definition of R-value is a measure of resistance to heat flow through a given thickness of material. The higher the R-value, the greater the resistance. The Courtyard Collection features a foamed-in-place polyurethane insulation which helps control costly heat loss and gain. It also can help diminish street noise and provides for quieter door operation. In addition, it has thermal seals in between the garage door sections, which provides superior resistance to Minnesota’s outdoor elements.

The trim boards that are used on the Courtyard Collection have a wood grain texture that is resistant to dents and outdoor elements. This door even offers a commercial grade track and hardware which results in a quieter operation.

DoorView Design Tool

If you’re interested in seeing what your current house would look like with a Courtyard Collection garage door, click here. This will take you to our DoorView Tool, which allows you to upload a picture of your current house and select a new garage door to visualize what it would look like.

Wireless Keypad For Your Garage Door 28 Oct 2021, 5:01 am

School is almost out and if you’re like most of us during the summer, family members tend to have busy schedules and we all come and go several times a day. Overhead Door Company sells and installs wireless keypads, which are ideal for families on the go! There’s no need for remotes or keys. It provides secure door entry for up to three Overhead Door garage door openers. The features include:

A flip-up cover design that is available in four colors to match your garage door color, including white, sandstone, almond and brown. This design offers you the convenience of remote entry without detracting from your home’s aesthetic look. The cover is made from a tough, weather-resistant plastic that includes an ultraviolet (UV) additive to protect against sunlight damage. When you move the cover, it does not activate the keypad, which eliminates the chance of the battery being drained prematurely. All of the keypad covers include basic use instructions for programming and customer assistance.
The keypad is 40% larger than past models for easy use. Its’ fully illuminated, large buttons provide greater visibility. The color-coded program button has been moved away from the numeric buttons to minimize unintended activation. The switches that are used offer four times the life versus standard mechanical switches.
Radio performance. Overhead Door Company’s wireless digital keypad features an advanced “Tuneless Surface Acoustic Wave Resonator” for superior performance.
Its Rolling Code Security works with all Overhead Door CodeDodger residential garage door opener systems. Unlike competitive units that only work with one opener, this wireless keypad can control up to three openers.
The Status Indicator LED alerts the homeowner to battery life. A series of different LED flashes provide feedback during programming.
PIN Flexibility. Accepts a three to eight digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) for optimal convenience and security.
Simple Programming and Mounting. There is a basic three-step programming process. There’s no need to remove the keypad cover for mounting the screw attachment. The mounting surface is raised to prevent water from collecting between the keypad and mounting surface.
Battery. It comes with a standard 9 volt battery. The battery compartment has a triple lock design for secure battery retention. One great feature is that the keypad stays programmed during battery change; no need for reprogramming! Another great thing to keep in mind is that whenever you need a new battery for your garage door remote(s) or keypad, Overhead Door Company gives them away for FREE! That’s right. No charge to you. We recycle old batteries too. The majority of what we recycle is rechargeable and non-rechargeable dry cell batteries. This includes alkaline, primary lithium, nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride, lithium ion, small sealed lead acid and other household dry-cell batteries. Our only request is that you tape the ends of the terminals with scotch tape. This prevents the dangerous evolution of heat and short circuits when we ship them to be recycled. If you have batteries that have leaked or are corroded, you can place those in a separate baggie and still bring them to us.

The wireless keypad can also enhance the security of your home. Have you ever needed to schedule a service technician such as a plumber, etc. to come to your home when you can’t be there? Instead of leaving your home unlocked, you can give your PIN to the technician so he or she has access upon arrival. Then you can change the PIN after the fact if desired. This can be a great way to give individuals access if/when necessary, without compromising your home’s overall security.

If you’re ready to add more convenience to your garage door system by choosing a wireless keypad, stop into one of our locations.

Winter Is Hard On Your Garage Door! Consider Annual Service 21 Oct 2021, 5:01 am

We all know things don’t work as well in the winter—your garage door is no exception. Have you ever wondered how often you should have your garage door serviced? We recommend once a year, not just when you hear it squeak or have a spring break on your garage door.

Annual service on your garage door allows a professional technician to determine how your garage door, all of its parts and your operator are working. Here’s a detailed list of what we look at when we perform maintenance on your garage door:

Check the photo eyes. They should be 6” off of the floor, aligned properly and the green/yellow LED’s should be lit. A photo eye obstruction test should be performed to make sure they are functioning properly.
Safety reversal test. Make sure your garage door reverses its direction if it closes and something is in the way of its path.
Adjust spring tension if needed.
Check cables/safety cables/drums. Look for any fraying or abnormal wear with cables. If your garage door has extension springs, the garage door professional should be making sure the safety cables are properly installed. These safety cables are important because they prevent an extension spring from flying off and causing potential harm and damage if it breaks.
Check rollers, hinges and track. Make sure they don’t show abnormal wear, rusting, and are free from debris, etc.
Adjust the lock/lock rod. If you have a garage door that you open and close manually with a handle on the outside, your lock and lock rod may need to be adjusted.
Lubricate moving parts. Keeping the moving parts of your garage door properly lubricated is essential in preventing problems and abnormal wear. They should be lubricating rollers and hinges, but not the actual track that your door runs up and down on.
Brush weather strip/seal. If you look around the perimeter of your garage door, you’ll probably notice either weather strips of brush or vinyl. It prevents the warm air, which you’ve already paid for if you have an attached garage or heated garage, from escaping outside. When you have extreme temperature differences the way we do in Minnesota, making sure your weather strip and seal at the bottom of your garage door are in good shape is important. If you have an insulated garage door, the brush weather strip works in conjunction to enhance the overall performance of your garage door. Brush weather strip is inexpensive, easy to replace and well worth your investment! Overhead Door Company stocks many types and sizes of brush weather strip and vinyl. We can help you determine which kind is the best for your garage door. If you have an insulated garage door without weather strip or with weather strip that is damaged or old, you are not doing yourself, or your heating bill any favors.
Check condition of operator cable or operator belt. Your garage door operator is the device that is usually attached to your ceiling that runs your garage door up and down. If you have a chain garage door operator, the garage door technician needs to check the condition of the cable it uses. If you have a belt drive operator, the same evaluation needs to take place with the belt that operates it.
Make sure your wall button is working. This is self-explanatory, but we know how important it is to make sure your wall button works! Nothing is more frustrating than needing to rely on it and finding out it doesn’t run your garage door up or down. Plus other family members, like your children who may not have or use a garage door remote, tend to rely on the wall button to get in and out of the garage on a regular basis.
Make sure your wireless keypad is working. A lot of homeowners rely on their wireless keypad for access to their garage. It’s important to make sure this garage door accessory works for the same reasons we mentioned above regarding your wall button! It’s all about convenience while keeping safety and security in mind.
Perform a transmitter check. In other words, make sure your hand held garage door remotes work.
Check the limit switch. Run the door up and down and make sure it’s opening and closing all the way. If it stops short of opening all the way, or even opens up too far, the limit switch needs adjustment.

All of these items are important for the smooth operation and lifetime of your garage door and operator. They need to be evaluated on a regular basis. If you know you need to schedule routine maintenance for your garage door, complete the Service Request form, call us or visit a local showroom near you.

Why Preventative Maintenance Is Important For Your Garage Door 14 Oct 2021, 5:01 am

We know that often times we don’t hear from homeowners until they have a problem with their garage door. We definitely understand why—as long as it’s working fine, chances are you don’t even think about it! But what The Door People from Overhead Door Company are here to tell you, is that we recommend annual service on your garage door. Having a garage door professional examine your door and operator once a year gives a professional time to lubricate parts that need it, look at the alignment of your door and adjust it if needed, look and adjust tension limits if necessary, along with seeing if there’s any abnormal wear with other parts. Giving your garage door and operator some TLC is an excellent investment that keeps your door running smoothly when you need it—which for most of us is several times a day!

With your garage door being the largest moving object in your house, don’t ignore it until you have a problem. Be proactive, schedule annual preventative maintenance and keep larger problems or repairs from being needed. While it’s impossible to know if a spring is going to break on a garage door, it is possible to locate fraying cables, bent hinges and rusting parts that will lead to bigger, more costly repairs if unattended to. Having a working garage door is one of those every day luxuries and conveniences that most of us don’t want to live without.

If you’re a business owner and have a building or several with overhead doors, routine maintenance is ever so important for your doors as well. Most businesses and industries that rely on the use of their overhead doors cannot operate and sometimes have to halt production if an overhead door goes down. We provide emergency service for instances where a homeowner or business needs our service right away and cannot get by with waiting until the next business day. You can reach Overhead Door Company for emergency service by calling:

What Does The R-Value Mean When It Comes To Your Overhead Door 7 Oct 2021, 5:01 am

Whether you’re a homeowner or a business owner who is trying to save energy costs, if you have a garage door or overhead door, it’s important to understand what the R-value is and what it means.

By definition, the R-value is a measure of resistance to heat flow through a given thickness of material. The higher the R-value, the greater the resistance. To be clear, you want a high R-value when looking for a quality insulated door.

Overhead Door Company sells and installs overhead doors that lead the industry when it comes to superior insulation and performance. We’ll outline some of our top performers and their features for both homeowners (residential garage doors) and business owners (commercial doors).

Residential Garage Doors

Whether your garage is heated, air conditioned or not, a well-insulated door can keep the garage room temperature comfortable which is ideal if it functions as a workshop or other livable space. They also operate more quietly, provide added strength and have a more aesthetic appeal on the interior than a non-insulated door. Here are some of our top choices for insulated garage doors:

Thermacore®

For premium construction and maximum thermal efficiency, a Thermacore® insulated steel door is the ideal choice. This series of doors feature our sandwich construction of steel-polyurethane-steel as well as between-section seals with thermal breaks to reduce air infiltration.

The result is you have the beauty of wood, and the durability of steel. These classic designs enhance the architectural beauty of your home. The Courtyard Collection has an R-value of up to 12.76.

Carriage House Collection

The Carriage House Collection combines the beauty of a wood carriage-house door with the durability of steel. These doors combine distinctive carriage house designs and superior insulated steel construction to create a harmonious blend of elegance and strength. You can customize the look by selecting from several paint or stain options, window styles and decorative hardware. The Carriage House Collection has an R-value of 10.

Commercial Garage Door

Advanced Performance Sectional Steel Doors

This commercial door is the solution for advanced performance in commercial and industrial applications where climate control, durability and ease of maintenance are primary concerns. This door system presents the most advanced thermal performance values published by any major U.S. manufacturer of a 3″ commercial insulated sectional door. It has an R-value of 26.

Thermacore® Sectional Steel Doors

This is a premier insulated sectional steel door, which is ideal for applications that demand the highest levels of thermal efficiency. It features an R-value of up to 26 combined with minimized air infiltration provides for superior thermal performance. It has thermal breaks to prevent cold or heat from passing through the sections. It also has a flexible bottom weather seal with a retainer, which lessens conductivity of heat and cold, minimizes air and water penetration, and accommodates irregular floor conditions. Lastly, it has a baked-on, polyester paint finish that eliminates field painting and provides long-lasting protection against the elements.
