Most homeowners use their garage doors more often than their front doors to enter their homes. That means installing a new garage door can improve your home’s overall efficiency, make daily living simpler and more convenient, add home value and modernize your home’s exteriors. Installing a new garage door is one of the wisest home upgrade investments you can make — on average, most homeowners receive at least an 85 percent return on investment from a new garage door installation.
But with this home improvement project, how much can you expect to spend on a new single garage door installation? Depending on several factors, the cost to install an overhead garage door is in the range of $1,000 to over $10,000, with averages landing in the middle at just over $2,000. These numbers not only include the actual purchase of the overhead garage door, but also necessary hardware including tracks, adhesives, connectors and fasteners. The cost to install a garage door can vary widely based on garage door materials and features, installation costs and home and owner needs.

There are four main types of garage doors professionals can install on your home, including two types of roll-up garage doors, and each one requires different tools and expertise that affect installation costs:
