What's a "high-lift track" conversion?

A high-lift track lifts the door higher into the ceiling before it goes horizontal — useful for cathedral ceilings, car lifts, or maximizing garage headroom for storage or workshops.

My garage has almost no ceiling clearance — can you still install a door?

Yes. Low-headroom hardware kits allow modern sectional doors to be installed with as little as 3.5" of clearance above the door.

Do you work on historic or landmark homes?

Yes. We're experienced with historic preservation constraints, including matching original visual style with modern insulated panels behind the scenes.

How much does a custom-sized door cost vs. stock?

Custom-sized doors run 20–60% more than equivalent stock sizes, depending on the modification. Custom hardware adds additional cost. All quoted transparently after on-site measurement.

Can you match an existing door's design in a new size?

Often yes — we can source panels, trim, and hardware that match an existing door's aesthetic if that's a priority.

About This Service

Not every garage is standard. Older Peninsula homes were often built with non-standard openings — wider, shorter, taller, or with oddly-shaped headers that stock doors can't accommodate. Modern architectural homes sometimes need high-lift tracks for cathedral ceilings, or low-headroom hardware for tight spaces.

Jonathan has built custom-sized doors for homes ranging from 1920s Palo Alto craftsman garages to modern Los Altos Hills estates with 14-foot cathedral ceilings. Every solution is engineered specifically for your opening, not shoehorned in from a stock catalog.
