AfterFast, Reliable Garage Door Installation Across Westgate
Garage door installation in Westgate typically runs $700 to $2,200 for a complete new door, with opener installation adding $250 to $550. Most jobs on the 1950s-1970s CBS homes that dominate this neighborhood require hurricane-rated units, which is the single biggest factor affecting both price and timeline. If you’re looking at a standard single-car garage from that era, expect the conversation to start with wind-load compliance before we ever talk door styles. Call (561) 489-7509 and you’ll get a written price before any work starts, not a callback window.
Westgate is unincorporated Palm Beach County, which means every permit goes through the county’s Building Division. We know that process, we know the inspectors, and we schedule the inspection before we leave your driveway. That’s the difference between a one-trip installation and a two-week headache.
Why Servo Garage Doors West Palm Beach Is Westgate’s Preferred Garage Door Installation Company
Since 2015, Servo has documented every job the same way: a written scope, a flat price, and a photo record of what we found and what we did. That system, now codified as The Haven Standard, matters more in Westgate than almost anywhere else we work. The housing stock here is older, the permits are county-run, and the wind-load requirements are strict. A contractor who quotes over the phone without seeing the garage is guessing. We don’t guess.
Marcus Deller leads our install teams, and he runs every Westgate job with the same rule: the customer sees the failed or undersized component before anyone quotes a replacement. Clause 4 of The Haven Standard exists because of jobs like the 1962 CBS home off Okeechobee Boulevard where a single-car garage had only 6’3″ of headroom. The previous contractor had quoted a standard track system. It would never have traveled. We corrected the rough opening, installed low-headroom hardware, and mounted a hurricane-rated Clopay door in one trip, inspection scheduled before we left.
Westgate customers get the same flat, written pricing as every other Servo job. No hourly billing, no “we’ll see once we open it up.” Clause 1 means you know the number before we touch a bracket. If another company gave you a written estimate, bring it. We’ll give you a free second opinion on it.
Our Garage Door Installation team handles everything from single-car replacements to custom builds, and every tech is background-checked and uniformed. When you call, a live person answers, 24/7, including holidays. You get a named technician and an on-the-way text.
Our Garage Door Installation Services in Westgate
New Door Installation
Most Westgate homes still have their original doors from the 1950s through 1970s. Those doors weren’t built for Palm Beach County’s current wind-load code, which means a replacement isn’t just cosmetic; it’s a compliance upgrade. We quote new door installation in Westgate at $700 to $2,200 depending on size, material, and wind rating. Every quote is written, flat, and agreed before work starts.
Single Car Door
The typical Westgate single-car garage is 8 to 9 feet wide with low overhead clearance, often under 7 feet. That rules out many modern track systems and frequently requires low-headroom hardware kits. We carry those kits on the truck for exactly this reason. A single car door installation in Westgate usually lands in the $700 to $1,500 range, with the spread driven by whether you need side-mounted openers or dual-track low-headroom systems.
Double Car Door
Double car doors in Westgate are less common than single, but they exist on some of the larger 1970s CBS homes in the northern sections of the neighborhood. The engineering changes: wider spans need heavier gauge steel, reinforced struts, and often a hurricane-rated mid-bar for wind-load compliance. Budget $1,400 to $2,200 for a properly engineered double door that will pass county inspection on the first attempt.
Custom Garage Door
Westgate’s non-standard garages create custom work by default. Decades of DIY conversions and enclosed carports mean rough openings that don’t match any stock door dimension. We do full custom door builds when the framing can’t be corrected, and we handle the framing correction when it can. Custom jobs in Westgate start around $1,500 and go up from there, depending on size, material, and wind-load requirements. The written scope you receive will itemize every line, including the framing correction if we’re doing it.
Steel Doors
Steel is the default material for Westgate replacements, and for good reason. It handles the humidity and salt-adjacent air better than wood, it holds a wind-load rating more predictably, and it doesn’t warp in the afternoon thunderstorm cycle this area gets year-round. We install Clopay, Amarr, and Wayne Dalton steel doors, and for hurricane-rated applications, we recommend going with a heavier gauge than the big-box store options. Lightweight steel doors flex under wind pressure, and county inspectors see the difference.
Wood Doors
Wood doors in Westgate are a statement choice, not a practical default. The humidity and termite pressure here make wood a maintenance commitment. But if you want the look, we’ll build it properly with treated framing, marine-grade hardware, and a wind-load rating that satisfies the county. Custom wood doors start around $1,800 in Westgate and require a longer lead time than steel.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Westgate
Servo installs and services all major brands: LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton, Craftsman, and Raynor. For Westgate specifically, we stock the low-headroom track kits, side-mount openers, and hurricane-rated door sections that this housing stock demands. If you’re replacing a door on a 1960s CBS home, we’ll have the right hardware on the truck on day one, not ordered-in on day three.
We install Clopay, Amarr, and Wayne Dalton most often in Westgate, simply because those manufacturers offer the widest selection of wind-load-rated steel doors in the sizes these older garages need. We also carry Craftsman-compatible parts for opener replacements on older systems.
Common Garage Door Installation Problems We See in Westgate Homes
- Low headroom in 1950s-1970s CBS garages: Many Westgate garages have under 7 feet of clearance. A standard track system won’t work, and you won’t know that until the door won’t travel. We measure headroom in the quote, not after tear-out.
- Non-hurricane-rated doors on county permits: Palm Beach County Building Division enforces 130+ mph design pressure ratings. A cheaper door that doesn’t meet the rating will get the permit rejected and the job stopped mid-install. We won’t sell you a door that can’t pass.
- Rusted galvanized hardware on original doors: Thirty to sixty years of Westgate humidity corrodes springs, cables, and bottom brackets. Those components often snap during removal if they weren’t pre-treated. We check and pre-cut on every job, because a snapped cable on day two is a second trip you shouldn’t pay for.
- Non-standard rough openings from DIY conversions: Garage-to-room conversions and enclosed carports left many Westgate garages with framing that doesn’t match any stock door. The rough opening has to be corrected before installation, and that’s line-itemed in the written scope, never a surprise add-on.

FAQs - Garage Door Installation in Westgate
Yes. Westgate is unincorporated, so there’s no city building department. Every garage door replacement permit runs through Palm Beach County Building Division, and the county requires wind-load documentation on the door before they’ll sign off. We handle the permit application, schedule the inspection, and include the documentation in the written scope. Call (561) 489-7509 if you want us to handle the whole thing.
Usually yes, but it depends on headroom and rough opening dimensions. Many Westgate garages from this era have under 7 feet of clearance, which requires a low-headroom track kit rather than a standard system. We’ve installed hurricane-rated steel doors in 6’3″ headroom garages off Okeechobee Boulevard; it took a low-headroom kit and minor framing correction, and it passed county inspection. We’ll tell you what your garage needs before you spend anything.
Palm Beach County enforces a minimum design pressure of 130 mph for this wind zone. Your replacement door and its framing connection must meet that rating, and the county will require documentation showing the door’s wind-load test results. We quote only doors that meet or exceed the county minimum. Selling you a cheaper, non-compliant door wouldn’t save you anything; the permit would be rejected and the job would stop.
Most single-car installations are done in one day, including removal of the old door, hardware replacement, and mounting the new unit. The county inspection usually gets scheduled within a few days after that, and we handle the scheduling before we leave the job. If your rough opening needs correction or your hardware is badly rusted, plan on a second day. You’ll know the timeline in writing before we start.
Sometimes, but not always. If the hinges, rollers, and brackets are corroded to the point where removing them would damage the framing, we’ll recommend replacing the hardware in the same trip. The written scope will show both line items so there’s no discovery pricing. We’ll also photograph the hardware before we touch it, per Clause 4 of The Haven Standard, so you see exactly what we saw.
If you’re in Westgate and need a garage door installed right, call (561) 489-7509 for a free, written estimate. We’ll measure, quote, and schedule on your timeline, not ours.
