I had to take the time to reach out to you and the Great Northern Door team!!! WE LOVE OUR DOORS! We had been wanting to upgrade for a while but were unsure of which route to go and then were introduced to the option of "composite garage doors" as an alternative. BRILLIANT! The curb appeal is upscale, elegant and yet very durable. It is hard to imagine that they are made of a composite material. You can barely tell they are not actual wood. They are also so quiet. The simplicity of being able to just spray them down, no restaining, and NO maintenance is the best part! We also love the addition of windows so there is more light in our garage. Because we live on a ranch and the amount of work is insurmountable at times, knowing that these doors will not require the usual wooden door upkeep is such a blessing! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! A very thankful homeowner- Maren L
