Clopay versus other manufacturers

Betsey Thompson

11 years ago

Our architect specified a Clopay Coachman series to replace our 16' x 7' garage door. What other brands are comparable, and what are the features to look for? I know the door specified is steel inside and out, insulated etc. Hinges specified were iron strap.

I know clopay has a good reputation, but have also heard of AMAR and Artisan. Has anyone ever heard of these brands: Haas, Designer, C.H.I, Premium, or Hormann?

Any to avoid?
