The North Shore has a tradition of splendor. This tradition has been embraced and continued throughout the area. It can be seen in the facades and landscaping as one drives through the streets of Manhasset and the hamlets throughout the area.

The residents of the North Shore have embraced this tradition and seek to maintain it when purchasing a new garage door. The best and most popular doors for homes in this area include:

High-end, finely crafted wood doors are popular choices for upscale homes, like Artisan Doors. These fully customizable wood doors,  can be made to match any home on Long Island. They often carry a higher price tag, but homeowners here commonly feel these are their best door option.

Vinyl doors, upgraded to mimic high end wood carriage house garage doors,  are also popular. They create the same great look but do not require the maintenance of a wood garage door. Vinyl is the perfect material for homes along the water because it  won’t rot or rust.

Wood Overlay Doors are perfect for homes in this area. The garage door is actually made of steel with a wood overlay. You can choose an exotic wood species like mahogany or cedar. The big benefit is that the steel can be  insulated. This allows the homeowner to get a gorgeous wood door with the ability to super-insulate it. 

Overlays in vinyl and composite also look great. They are popular because they eliminate the need for maintenance.

The people in the Huntington area typically focus on durability, style and insulation. While the folks on the Gold Coast are trying to stay in step with one another, the people in Huntington are trying to make their homes a little more distinctive. Well insulated steel doors in carriage style with attractive glazing are selling in this area.

These doors are extremely durable and stylish. They come in a variety of panels and colors, with a multitude of window options. With these options, you can customize your garage door for your home and create a distinctive look.

Typical Long Island Garage Door

In the Massapequa area of the South Shore many homes were built with a garage door like the one pictured here.

These were prevalent in the construction of these homes and are inescapable throughout Massapequa and the surrounding towns. These doors are made out of a material similar to plastic and are very low quality. 

Overexposure to these doors has left people in this area devoid of the knowledge of the features that would normally be considered when purchasing a new garage door, like color, panel styles and insulation. We cover all that.

Garage Doors that accent the home are popular here. Insulation is a new found benefit that folks are anxious to take advantage of as well.

Homes in the Long Beach area of the South Shore can benefit from vinyl and wood overlay doors. The saltwater creates an environment that causes rust. As soon as a steel door gets a scratch in this area it turns to rust seemingly overnight and can ruin the look of the door. Vinyl and overlay doors avoid this problem. One is available for every style and budget.
