A new garage door installation typically takes 2 to 3 hours, depending on the type of door, site conditions, and any additional features like motorisation or custom fittings.

- Motorised vs. Manual – Installing an automatic garage door opener adds time for wiring, testing, and programming remotes.
- Old Door Removal – If an existing garage door needs removal, this can add extra time to the process.
- Structural Adjustments – If modifications to the garage opening, framing, or supports are needed, the installation could take longer.
- Custom Features – Adding insulation, extra weather seals, or special finishes may require additional setup time.
