CHI garage doors are known for their quality.
If you are searching for a quality garage door for
your home you might want to consider
CHI
garage doors
. CHI is known for its quality and
durability. In terms of garage door pricing the
company’s products are considered to be in the
mid to upper price range. When it comes to
garage doors it really is not smart to cut corners.
In almost every case the garage door opening is
potentially the weakest part of your homes
structure. This is especially true if you live in
areas that have severe thunderstorms, hurricanes
or other high wind events. Experience has shown
that once you lose your garage door the next
thing you frequently lose is your roof.

CHI garage doors are featured as standard,
medium, premium and carriage house lines. In
recent years carriage garage doors have become
very popular in new home construction.
CHI
garage doors
have several designs that provide
garage door that will accent many homes. The
doors have a number of exterior facings that
include wood, fiberglass or steel. Steel doors are
probably the best door that you can purchase.
They have a galvanized steel front and back with
polyurethane foam insulation that gives a high
insulating factor. Joints on all the
CHI garage
doors
have either a tongue and groove or ship lap
panel joints that will keep the outside elements
out of your garage.

When building and designing your home make
sure that your contractor and architect know that
you want a good quality garage door included in
the construction.
CHI garage doors makes and
sells a good number of standard and medium
doors. While these doors are of good quality they
are frequently called contractor doors by the
building community. Again considering the risk of
a failed garage door during a storm and/or lack of
strength to deter illegal entry, cutting corners on
your garage door just does not make senses.

We recommend that you consider double sided
doors constructed of at least 26 gauge steel. The
premium
CHI garage doors achieve this bare
minimum by using a combination of 27 and 25
gauge panels. However
CHI garage doors do not
meet the high wind codes of South Florida and
other jurisdictions. CHI doors do feather
polyurethane foam insulation that is sandwiched
between two layers of steel that will provide some
degree additional strength. Never the less if you
live in an area with high wind risk it would be best
to look to other manufactures.

If you are going to install a workshop in your
garage or live in areas with extreme cold
temperatures you should look for a garage door
with a high R-rating. If the garage is going to be
heated or air conditioned then you will want an R-
value of at least 14. Unfortunately most of
CHI
garage doors
do not meet this minimum standard.
Many of
CHI garage doors do provide R-values
that range from 6 to 9 which are adequate for
unheated garages.

In general
CHI garage doors provide the quality
you need to protect your home and provide the
style and look to accent it beautifully.
