Will my window styling and trim on the house affect my decision for a Seattle hand-made custom garage doors or REAL swinging carriage house garage doors?

Friday, March 21st, 2008

As you look through your craftsman’s styles, design book or portfolios, look for many proven historical carriage house door designs that have developed over time.  Perhaps you would like to mix and match different custom garage door designs for a one-of-a-kind creation.  Or, create a completely new design to match your requirements for a unique vintage garage door.  During your custom garage door evaluation and design consultation, does your craftsman search for architectural elements from your home to incorporate into your door?  Windows, entry doors, front porches, and house finishes all provide distinctive styling for your custom garage door.

What are the disadvantages of using a local garage door installer for a custom garage door or REAL carriage doors?

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Look for a complete turn-key solution for your hand-made custom garage door; including Design, Build, FINISH, and, Install services.  Don’t cut yourself short, have your craftsman FINISH the job!  You do not want any finger-pointing between multiple parties in a custom garage door transaction.  You want the same person to Design the door, Build the door, FINISH the door, and if possible, Install the door.  You want the comfort and security of a single point of contact and responsibility, no subcontracting, no business arrangements, no business partner agreements, no more parties than ONE.

I am sure everyone can think of many war stories in the corporate world regarding outsourcing and business partner affiliations.  Just think of the problems you have with your PC and getting support for a problem.  If the corporate giants of the world can’t do this well – you think an installer, contractor or manufactuer can do any better?  Answer: NO.  Enough, back to custom garage doors.

Look for custom garage doors and carriage house doors built from scratch without any prefabricated parts and pieces, and, a craftsman who does all the work themselves to provide you with the highest level of quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail at every step of the project.  Installers are just that…a person who installs.  They lack the knowledge, experience, and training to be a true craftsmen.

 Vintage Garage Door, LLC provides custom garage door solutions that include all services from Master Craftsmen.  Built in Seattle, take a look at their custom garage doors, wood door finishes, and stain-grade finishes to see how your dreams can become a reality!
