Q: What is the average lifespan of garage doors?

• <div><p>A garage door should last 30 years, give or take, before it needs replacing, so your panels should last for around that long as well. However, you should replace your garage door panels sooner if the door doesn&rsquo;t function smoothly if one of the panels gets visibly damaged, or if an issue with a panel is creating a security issue.</p></div>

Q: How long does garage door insulation last?

• <div><p>Garage door <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-a-house-last.htm">insulation can last</a> anywhere from 20 to 100 years depending on the type of insulation. Cellulose has the shortest lifespan coming in at between 20 and 30 years, while spray foam, mineral wool, and fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years with proper maintenance. </p><p>Humidity plays a role in how long more susceptible insulation materials&mdash;like fiberglass&mdash;last. Once fiberglass batts reach the 15-year mark, you'll need to routinely inspect your insulation to ensure that it is in mint order.</p></div>

Q: Where should garage door sensors be located?

• <div><p>Garage door sensors should be installed on each side of the door, typically six inches off of the ground. The sensors communicate through an infrared beam, so they need to face each other directly for the system to work properly. Make sure they&rsquo;re level and aligned, and keep the area around them clear. If they&rsquo;re too high or out of alignment, your garage door won&rsquo;t function properly. </p></div>

Q: What features should be included in a new garage design?

• <div><p>Adequate storage, workspaces, and energy-efficient systems are key considerations.</p></div>
