mike, i used to work for an outfit that sold/installed doors (i did gas fire places). call around for the biggest outfit you can find. go to a housing development and look for installers. clopay makes a damn good door, get the insulated version. when you get a bid ask for high lift tracks. irrc you have tall lids. spring for the install. any probs and they fix, you do and you're on your own. calling some one out is worse than a plumber. they come down much harder than they go up. the tensioner spring will kill you, maim at best, if you f-up. the weight of the door is key and the spring MUST be set correctly. with as much as your garage must have cost the door is chump change.
