Roll-up garage door suggestions?

[ih784]

Good afternoon all!

Long time watcher, first time poster. I'm building a 16x20 shed. I'm looking for ideas for a door I was leaning towards a roll up type 7(h)x8(w). I got a quote of 1100 bucks... Time to backup and punt. Are there any recommended vendors to go with or stay away from? Also intend on intstalling an alarm seperate from my homes alarm. Leanto on the side as well any and all ideas are appreciated!

Regards, John

Thanks for all your replies guys! Ill edit my profile as I'm in northeastern NC! We are having a lot of rain this weekend so I haven't had a chance to work on it anyway.

Not sure if this guy is too far from you. I highly recommend Mac Door see the thread below. And if you willing to spend extra for a very high quality rolling steel CHI door slightly larger 10' W x 8' H. in grey he may be able to offer you a great deal.

I've looked at CHI, in fact I contacted a company in Chesapeake (coastal doors). They were at 1100 bucks for an 8'w x 7'h. I will drop them a line though. I don't mind the color as its only paint deep... I guess I'd be looking at 9.5' studs/walls to allow for clearance? Thanks for the mention though!

Are those doors insulated, or does one have to choose sectional doors for insulation?

Insulation is an option for a rollup door. I have it in my rolling steel door and it is available as a blanket that roles up with the door for the corrugated sheet rollup doors.
