How HG Garage Door performed the work in Marietta, GA
- Verified both openings measured a true 9 ft x 7 ft before ordering matching doors
- Removed both old doors, track and springs, then checked jambs for rot behind the brick veneer
- Set new track and re-anchored the center brick pier plate with masonry sleeve anchors
- Installed nylon rollers to cut operating noise on the shared wall bedroom above
- Wound and balanced new springs, re-set opener limits and tested auto-reverse on both doors
Should both garage doors be replaced at the same time?
Yes, when appearance matters. HG Garage Door replaced both Marietta doors together so the panel profile, white tone and hardware match exactly. Doors ordered years apart differ in panel depth and shade of white, which is obvious from the street on a two-bay brick elevation.
How quiet are nylon rollers compared to steel rollers?
Noticeably quieter. This Marietta home has a bedroom over the garage, so HG Garage Door fitted 13-ball nylon rollers instead of the original steel rollers. Nylon wheels run on sealed bearings, remove the metal-on-metal rumble in the track, and need no lubrication between annual services.
- Nylon 13-ball rollers: quietest, sealed bearings, best under living space
- Steel 10-ball rollers: durable and cheap, louder in the track
- Plain steel builder rollers: no bearings, wear fastest, common cause of off-track doors
How is garage door track anchored to a brick Marietta home?
Track was fastened to the wood jambs where present and to the center brick pier with masonry sleeve anchors, not plastic plugs. Brick veneer will not hold a lag screw under repeated door load, so HG Garage Door drills into solid brick and torques anchors to spec on every masonry opening.
Marietta garage door questions we hear most
How long does it take to replace two garage doors in Marietta?
Two HG Garage Door technicians replaced both Marietta doors, track, rollers and springs in 4 hours 25 minutes. A single-door replacement on the same house would run about two hours, including balancing and safety testing.
What is the difference between short panel and long panel garage doors?
Short raised panel gives a traditional grid look that suits brick and colonial elevations, like this Marietta home. Long panel uses wider horizontal panels for a cleaner, more modern face. Both use the same steel, insulation and hardware, so the choice is purely visual.
Do you replace rotted jambs during installation?
HG Garage Door checks both jambs and the header before hanging a new door. Soft or rotted wood is repaired or replaced before track goes up, because track anchored into rot will loosen and pull the door out of alignment within months.
Do you serve all of Cobb County?
Yes. HG Garage Door covers Marietta, Smyrna, Kennesaw, Acworth, Austell, Mableton, Powder Springs, Vinings and the rest of Cobb County for installation, spring replacement, off-track repair and opener work.
