Factors to Consider When Selecting Garage Doors for Business Use
Purchasing a garage door for a business is somewhat different than when buying a door for a home. While you want the door to enhance the appearance of your business and help you attract more customers, increasing “curb appeal” isn’t the only consideration. Other key selection factors include:
- Operation: You’ll need to determine the amount of force the door must be able to handle and if the door should maintain uniform or differing balance during travel.
- Durability: Not all commercial garage doors are created equally regarding longevity. If your doors experience heavy use or are exposed to high-volume vehicle traffic, you’ll need to choose a higher-quality material that’s up to the challenge.
- Maintenance costs: Factors such as type of use and material will impact the door’s preventive maintenance requirements, which will also affect your long-term ownership costs.
- Energy efficiency: An often-overlooked factor when purchasing a commercial garage door is whether it will help you reduce your energy costs. An insulated garage door will likely cost more, but it can also lower your energy consumption by requiring you to use less heat or air conditioning.
- Visibility: Depending on the type of business you run, you may or may not want passersby to see what’s behind your garage doors. You might also want to allow (or not allow) natural light inside. You’ll have to decide whether you want doors with or without windows.
- Options: Various commercial garage door options are available that will create a higher initial cost but can also enhance the door’s longevity, appearance, energy efficiency and functionality — which will also increase its long-term value.

FAQ
Do you still have questions about finding the right garage door for your business? We’ve answered some common queries below.
What are the best garage door options for commercial properties?
The best garage door options for commercial properties depend on your business’s specific needs. Consider these key factors:
- Durability: For heavy vehicle traffic or frequent opening and closing, steel and aluminum sectional doors are built to withstand high-cycle use.
- Security: Add-ons like security grilles and breakaway bottom doors give you an extra layer of protection for equipment and inventory.
- Energy costs: If your garage connects to conditioned space, an insulated door with Intellicore® foam can help to take some of the strain off your heating and cooling.
- Opening type: Sectional, rolling and sheet doors each work better for different setups. The right fit depends on your bay size and how the space gets used day to day.
Do you offer custom sizes for commercial garage doors?
We offer custom sizes for commercial garage doors to fit your opening. You can also customize the door’s appearance, including hardware and color palette.
Are insulated garage doors worth it for a commercial property?
Insulated garage doors may be worth it for your commercial property if your facility is heated or cooled, or if you have temperature-sensitive inventory. Insulation helps control temperatures inside your business and may help to reduce energy expenses. Typically, insulated garage doors cost more up front, but a business can justify the cost if it pays off in energy bill savings over time.
What are the most durable materials for commercial garage doors?
The most durable materials for commercial garage doors include steel and aluminum. Steel doors are strong and can withstand impacts from strong winds and other natural forces. Aluminum doors can resist warping and corrosion and are more lightweight, which can put less strain on your garage door opener, prolonging service life.
What’s the difference between sectional and rolling steel commercial doors?
Sectional commercial garage doors usually feature wide hinged panels and tracks that keep the door parallel to the ceiling when open. Rolling steel doors coil tightly into a roll near the roof, just inside the garage. Blankenship Garage Doors carries both sectional and rolling steel options to suit your business’s needs.
