Garage doors haven’t really changed much over the past 20 years. Well, at least on the surface; they still open and close the same and you can still get a garage door opener to do it automatically for you. But, Stanley garage doors and openers have made this process more efficient and affordable for you, the homeowner.
So what exactly does all of this mean for you? well, if you ever considered converting your garage to extra living space, getting an insulated garage door will make using it during the winter months more comfortable. Plus, the new line-up of automated Stanley garage door openers use less energy and are more durable than most automated garage door openers on the market. So you get the best of both worlds, a better garage door and garage door opener for about the same price as earlier models.
The only tough thing is that the company is no longer in business. You’ll still be able to find their great products at select hardware stores and ecommerce sites. Just make sure you know what you’re getting into before you do it.
Most of their commerical grade products are no longer on the market, so you’re limited to their residential line. Don’t worry though, since it’ll probably be a better fit for your home needs. If you don’t see yourself using your garage door for any special purposes, get the basic garage door opener and door options. You’ll get the most bang for your buck.
Like I said before, the Stanley garage company is no longer in business, so you won’t find very many places that sell the parts and products. But, you will find some very good deals at the places that do sell Stanley garage products for this same reason. If you are looking for Stanley garage door opener parts in particular, you are one of many other people searching for the same thing, and online retailers are more likely to carry the parts you need than a regular hardware store would be.
If you don’t want to do business with a company that is no longer around, I don’t blame you. If something was to break, it would a pain in the butt to figure out how to get it fixed and who to go to fix it, or where to even find parts. Some great alternatives are the Genie garage company and Clopay garage company.
