Construction & Insulation

Solid Construction for Everyday Confidence

The Avante® Sleek garage door is built to look great and stand the test of time. Its frame is made from commercial-grade aluminum, so it’s naturally rust-resistant and practically maintenance-free—just an occasional rinse keeps it looking fresh.

For added comfort, select models feature Intellicore® polyurethane insulation in the rails and stiles, helping keep your garage quieter and more comfortable. Every panel is joined with a weather-sealing section joint, so rain and wind stay outside where they belong. Also, an integral reinforcing fin adds extra strength and stability on wider doors.

You can choose from a wide variety of glass or acrylic panel options to get the perfect combination of light, privacy, and style for your home.
