Corona Del Mar Custom Wood Garage Door Installation with Accoya Wood

Before

The home originally featured standard garage doors that no longer matched the high-end renovation the homeowners undertook. Their previous doors were outdated and lacked the elegance they desired for their upgraded property. The homeowners wanted garage doors that would blend seamlessly with the refined architecture and provide a warm, natural look without sacrificing durability.

After

The Challenge

This project required a customized solution due to the home's unique specifications. The garage openings were non-standard sizes, requiring precise craftsmanship to ensure a perfect fit. The homeowners needed two large garage doors measuring 17 feet by 10 feet and a single door measuring 9 feet by 10 feet, making standard-sized replacements impossible.

Another challenge was ensuring a cohesive look throughout the property. The homeowners needed new garage doors and wanted pedestrian gates to match, requiring a manufacturer capable of producing both with the same high level of detail and craftsmanship.

Material selection was also crucial. The homeowners chose Accoya wood, a premium, long-lasting wood known for its smooth texture, dimensional stability, and resistance to environmental changes. The final challenge was designing a high-lift track system, allowing the doors to open 11 to 12 inches higher than standard setups due to the home’s high ceilings.

Our Solution

We also upgraded the operating system to the reliable LiftMaster 98022 jackshaft for smooth, long-lasting performance

Our Solution:

To meet the homeowners’ needs, we installed fully customized Accoya wood garage doors with a vertical grain, stain-grade finish. The smooth-textured wood provided a sleek, high-end appearance while maintaining the durability required for long-term performance. The doors were constructed with 1/2-inch x 3-1/8-inch tongue and groove panels, using a butt-joint application to create a seamless vertical face. The end boards were carefully designed to be slightly wider, ensuring a refined and polished look.

For structural integrity, the doors were built with a 1-3/32-inch Hem-Fir finger-joint frame and 1-1/8-inch polystyrene insulation, providing thermal efficiency and sound reduction. The backing was crafted from 1/4-inch Luan plywood, adding strength without compromising aesthetics.

To accommodate the high ceilings, we installed 11 to 12-inch high-lift tracks with a 15-inch radius, continuous angle track, and long-stem nylon rollers, ensuring smooth and quiet operation.

The homeowners selected LiftMaster 98022 wall-mount motors, which provided a clean, space-saving setup with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, a battery backup, and a limited lifetime motor warranty.

In addition to the garage doors, the homeowners also purchased matching pedestrian gates, built to the same high standards. These pre-hung, stain-grade Accoya wood gates featured copper caps, custom jambs, and premium hinges, ensuring durability and a seamless integration with the garage doors. The gates were crafted using the same vertical face tongue-and-groove panels, maintaining visual harmony across the entire property.

For finishing, the homeowners opted for a clear coat sealant rather than a traditional stain. This approach preserved the Accoya wood's natural light oak-like tone, allowing its unique grain to stand out while providing protection against moisture and wear.

Final Result:

The completed project delivered a luxurious, fully custom garage door and gate system that perfectly complemented the home’s modern yet timeless renovation. The high-quality Accoya wood construction, combined with precision craftsmanship and advanced motor technology, resulted in a garage door system that was as functional as it was visually stunning.

The homeowners now have a sophisticated, high-end entryway that enhances their property’s curb appeal, blends seamlessly with their architectural vision, and provides long-lasting durability.
