The energy-efficient and long-lasting features of our Canadian garage doors

Resistance to extreme cold and bad weather

The panels of our insulated sectional door resist the cold, but many other hardware components contribute to our superior insulation. For Canadian homeowners who want the best energy-efficient solution.

Wood End Blocks For Panels

The most effective thermal breaks available! They eliminate any transfer of cold or heat between materials.

Polyurethane

High-pressure injected foam. It contributes to a high insulation factor (R-16 or R-12, your choice), essential for keeping out the cold of Canada's harsh climate.

Fully weatherproof

Numerous features of our distinctive construction help eliminate water, air, snow and dust infiltration.

Your garage stays cleaner, drier and more comfortable.

InterlokTM Joints

Located between the panels, they prevent air infiltration thanks to their triple-contact weatherstripping.

High-performance Weatherstripping

Our weatherstripping on the sides, top and bottom of the garage door ensures a tight seal and remains flexible even at arctic temperatures (-52℃/-62℉).

Maximum strength and durability

Polyurethane

Bonding to the panel walls, polyurethane not only insulates the door, it also makes it extremely rigid.

In fact, its resistance is 2 times greater than that of a door insulated with polystyrene (Styrofoam).

InterlokTM Joints

These joints are mechanically interlocked rather than glued, making the panels extremely robust.

Reinforced Metal Plates

These 14-gauge plates are used to securely fasten the hinges, handles and electric opener attachment bracket.

Reduce the environmental impact of your purchases by reducing the distance they travel

A garage door isn't a pair of shoes or a watch - it's big! The best-selling models are 9' x 7'. Buying a door from Canada means shorter transport times and less gas.

GARAGA's R-12 or R-16 insulated garage doors are manufactured and assembled at our plants in Canada. Compared to garage doors made in Asia or the United States, they leave a much smaller carbon footprint.

Support local business owners

Garaga is a Canadian family-owned company founded in 1983 by Michel Gendreau. At that time, the company had just 4 employees. The 2nd generation, Martin and Maxime Gendreau, the founder's identical twin sons who have been co-presidents since 2018, have taken over. But in fact, they were born into the garage doors business!

On its 40th anniversary in 2023, Garaga's proudest achievement was the support of some 990 Canadian employees!
