1. Does your custom wood garage doors come with track hardware & springs?
- Yes, and we recommend that you get new track and hardware due to the weight and thickness of our custom
doors. Since our doors are heavier than standard doors each door is weighted to ensure the correct torsion
spring pressure is applied. Standard headroom is 12" to 18" of space between the bottom of the opening
header and the unobstructed ceiling. We offer low head room track also.

8. Are Clingerman doors difficult to take care of?
- Our custom wood doors do require more care than a standard steel door. Maintenance tends not to be much
of a factor if you complete the staining process professionally. Usually, every 2-3 years you may have to
reapply the top coat to ensure the beauty of your custom wood garage door. With a steel door you lose the
natural overall beauty of what our custom wood garage doors has to offer!
