Typically, garage door panels can last 15-20 years with proper maintenance. However, factors like weather conditions, usage, and material quality can influence their lifespan.
Signs that your garage door panels might need replacement:
- Visible damage: Dents, cracks, or other physical damage.
- Rust or corrosion: Especially in areas with high humidity or harsh weather conditions.
- Energy inefficiency: Old, poorly insulated panels can lead to higher energy bills.
- Aesthetics: If the panels are outdated or no longer match your home’s style.
If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to consider replacing your garage door panels.
Remember: It’s always best to consult with a professional garage door technician to assess the condition of your garage door and determine if panel replacement is necessary.
