Garage doors in Wheat Ridge: a local guide
Some of the oldest garages near us
Wheat Ridge homes are older than most in the west metro. The median home was built in 1965, 43% were built before 1960, and only 10% went up in 2000 or later, according to the Census Bureau.
A garage from the 1940s or 1950s was built for the cars and doors of its day. Before you choose a new door or opener, measure the opening and the space above it: a low ceiling limits which track and opener will fit.
Old openers and the 1993 safety rule
Every residential opener made since January 1, 1993 must reverse when something blocks its photo eyes, under the federal safety standard. In a house this age, the opener may be older than the rule. If yours has no photo eyes near the floor, it predates it, and it is time to replace it.
Hail in Wheat Ridge
The damaging hail season along the Front Range runs from mid-April to mid-August, and Colorado had the second most hail claims in the country from 2013 to 2015. The May 2017 storm dropped baseball-sized hail on parts of Lakewood and Golden, Wheat Ridge’s neighbors, one of the costliest hail storms in Colorado history.
A dent alone does not stop a door from working, but a cracked panel or a bent section can bind in the track. If only one or two sections are hit and the panel is still made, those sections can be replaced without a whole new door.
Before you change the look of the door
Where a home sits in an HOA, the covenants usually give a committee a say over exterior changes. Check the rules on door style and color before you order, so the new door does not have to come back down.
