Double Garage Door Installation in Kansas City, KS
Double garage door installation puts a single wide door across a two-car opening, typically sixteen feet wide. It's often done when two old single doors are being replaced and the homeowner wants a cleaner look or better insulation across the full span. A door that wide puts real load on the spring system, and the header above the opening has to carry that weight safely. We check the structural situation before we spec the hardware so nothing is undersized for a door of that mass.

When to Call
When You Need Double Garage Door Installation
- Two aging nine-foot singles are being replaced and you want one unified door
- A new garage addition in Overland Park has a sixteen-foot opening ready to fill
- The existing double door is sagging at the center and needs full replacement
- You're converting a two-door facade to one door for better insulation continuity
How It Works
Our Process for Double Garage Door Installation
- 1
Header and Opening Inspection
We verify the header above the opening is carrying span load correctly before ordering a heavy two-car door.
- 2
Door and Spring Sizing
A sixteen-foot door needs a spring system matched to its exact weight. We calculate that before anything is ordered.
- 3
Track and Hardware Installation
Tracks are set level and plumb, and the torsion bar is mounted at the correct height for the door's lift geometry.
- 4
Balance Test and Opener Integration
We manually balance the door before connecting the opener so the motor isn't compensating for a spring that's out of spec.
Kansas City Context
Why this matters in Kansas City
Many Kansas City homes built in the 1970s and 1980s have two-car garages with separate single doors that are now aging out at the same time. Replacing both with one properly insulated double door is one of the more common jobs we do in areas like Shawnee and Merriam.
Straight Talk
About pricing & scope
Scope expands if the existing header needs reinforcement or if two separate track systems have to be removed and the wall prepped for a single wide install. Insulation value of the door panel itself also affects material cost.
