Ashley's panel replacement jobs land on our schedule daily. The housing here is predominantly single-family homes with attached garages, plus a core of older in-town residences, and we size every fix to match it rather than forcing a one-size part.
Weather matters more than most Ashley homeowners expect. Local conditions — four distinct seasons of muggy summers and freezing, snowy winters, with wide annual temperature extremes — drive summer heat and humidity that swell wood doors and rust steel, road salt and snowmelt that corrode the lowest hardware, and humid summers that seize hinges and rollers, so we recommend hardware and seals suited to Ohio's continental-climate region.
Across Delaware County, the garage door problems we see again and again are corroded low brackets from winter slush, doors frozen to the slab on cold mornings, freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals, and openers straining against cold-thickened grease. If that sounds like your door, there's a good chance we can fix it today.
Panel replacement saves homeowners thousands compared to a full door replacement when only one or two sections are damaged. A car backing into the bottom section, a kid's basketball hitting a center panel, or rust creeping along the bottom edge are all repairable without scrapping the rest of the door — if you have the right vendor relationships. We carry stock panels from Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton, CHI, and Raynor, and we color-match the profile and finish so the replacement panel is invisible against the rest of the door.
We will tell you honestly when a panel replacement is the wrong choice. If three or more sections are damaged, if the door is more than 20 years old, or if the door is a discontinued model where replacement panels aren't manufactured anymore, full door replacement is usually the better economic decision. Our techs photograph the damage, measure the door, and price both options so you can choose with full information.
Every panel replacement includes hinge replacement at the new section, a roller inspection, and a balance test once the door is reassembled. Insulated panels (R-8, R-12, R-18) cost slightly more than non-insulated and are a great upgrade opportunity for homeowners with attached garages.
A backed-into bottom section or a basketball dent in a center section is a cosmetic issue that can pull double duty as a structural one if it's deep enough to bend the panel's frame.
Rust streaking from the bottom edge
Coastal homes see bottom-section rust progress upward into the panel skin. Once rust pierces the skin, the panel cannot be refinished and needs replacement.
Cracked or warped wood section
Wood doors suffer water damage and warping that won't reverse with refinishing. Replacing the affected section is faster and cheaper than re-veneering.
Mismatched panel from prior repair
Prior repairs that used an unmatched panel make the door look patched. Replacement with the correct profile and color restores curb appeal.
Insulation upgrade desired
Replacing center panels with R-12 or R-18 insulated panels is an inexpensive way to improve thermal performance on attached garages without replacing the whole door.
Common causes & what we fix
Vehicle impact
Backing into the bottom section is the single most common cause of panel damage we see. The bottom edge takes the hit and the panel buckles inward.
Coastal corrosion
Salt-air pitting on uncoated steel panels progresses over years until rust breaks the painted skin. Repainting only delays it; replacement with hot-dipped galvanized panels stops it.
Hail or wind-blown debris
Hail dents are usually a series of small dimples across one section. Wind-blown branches leave linear creases. Both are good candidates for single-panel replacement.
Hinge or roller failure
A failed hinge can cause the door to twist as it travels, bending the section at the connection points. Repairing the panel without addressing the hinge guarantees a repeat.
Settling foundation
Door frames that have shifted with the foundation force the door panels into a slight twist. The lowest section takes the most stress and is often the first to crack.
