Garage Door Installation Cost in Ontario

Garage door installation cost in Ontario (2026)

Supply-and-install pricing depends on size, material and whether you need an opener. These are real Ontario numbers — door panels, all hardware, weatherstripping, professional installation, old-door removal and a safety check included:

Door size	Supplied & installed (+ tax)
8×7 single	from $1,350
9×7 single	$1,500
10×7 single	$1,650
15×7 double	$2,300
16×7 double	$2,300
Window inserts	+$125 per window
New opener (optional)	from $630
Door only — delivery	from $850 (+$150 per size step)

What affects the final price

• Opening size: single vs double, and oversized openings, change panel and hardware cost.
• Insulation level: single-layer steel is cheapest; insulated (higher R-value) costs more but cuts noise and energy loss.
• Material & finish: steel is the value pick; wood, full-view aluminum/glass and carriage styles cost more.
• Opener: adding or upgrading an opener is from $630.
• Windows & hardware: inserts and decorative hardware add to curb appeal and price.

What’s included

• Door panels + all tracks and hardware.
• Weatherstripping (bottom + perimeter).
• Professional installation by IDEA-certified installers.
• Removal & disposal of the old door.
• Balance and safety check before we leave.
• Warranties: 1-yr labour, 5-yr hardware, lifetime panel (rust-through).

Garage door installation cost by material

Material is the biggest lever on price. From most affordable to premium:

• Single-layer steel — the value pick; lowest cost, solid for a detached or unheated garage.
• Insulated steel (higher R-value) — the most popular GTA choice; quieter, warmer, and worth it for any attached garage. A moderate step up from single-layer.
• Wood & wood-look — premium curb appeal, higher price and more upkeep.
• Full-view aluminum & glass — modern, light-filled look; the priciest option.
• Carriage-style — premium styling on a steel base, sitting between insulated steel and wood.

Labour vs. materials — what you’re paying for

Royal quotes one flat supply-and-install price — there’s no separate labour line and no hidden fees. The figure bundles the door panels, all tracks and hardware, weatherstripping, professional installation, removal and disposal of the old door, and a final balance and safety check. What moves the labour portion is the opening size, taking out and recycling the old door, and bringing tracks and framing up to spec — not surprise add-ons after the fact.

Does a new garage door pay off?

Beyond day-to-day function, a new garage door is consistently one of the highest return-on-investment exterior upgrades in remodelling cost-vs-value studies — the door is a large part of a home’s street-facing façade, so a clean, modern one noticeably lifts curb appeal and resale value, while an insulated door also cuts noise and energy loss. For most GTA homeowners the upgrade pays back in appearance, comfort and home value.

Choosing the right door

For most GTA homes, an insulated steel sectional door is the best balance of price, durability and efficiency. If curb appeal is the priority, consider carriage-style or full-view glass doors. Compare styles in our installation gallery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the opener included in the install price?

No — the door install price covers the door, hardware and labour. A new opener (LiftMaster, Chamberlain or Genie) is from $630 supplied, installed and programmed. Re-using a working opener costs nothing extra.

Do you remove and dispose of the old door?

Yes. Old-door removal and disposal, plus a full safety check and balance, are included in every supply-and-install quote.

What warranty comes with a new door?

Royal Garage Doors provides a 1-year labour warranty, 5-year hardware warranty, and a lifetime panel warranty against rust-through perforation.

How much do windows add?

Decorative window inserts add about $125 per window. They boost curb appeal and light but slightly reduce insulation and privacy.

How long does installation take?

A standard single-door replacement takes 3–5 hours, including removing the old door, fitting new tracks and hardware, hanging and balancing the door, and testing operation.

How much does it cost to install a garage door in Toronto?

In Toronto and across the GTA, a supplied-and-installed 8×7 single starts at $1,350 + tax and a 16×7 double runs about $2,300 + tax. Material, insulation and windows move the final number; a new opener, if needed, adds from $630.

How much does a new double garage door cost installed?

A 16×7 double is from about $2,300 + tax supplied and installed; a narrower 15×7 double is the same $2,300. Insulated and full-view/glass doubles cost more.

Is labour included in the installation price?

Yes. Every supply-and-install quote bundles professional labour, all tracks and hardware, weatherstripping, old-door removal and a safety check into one flat price — no separate labour charge and no hidden fees.
