Garage Doors


Homeowners are responsible for providing and
maintaining the large access door for their garage.

Wood garage doors can only be replaced with one of two approved steel garage door models -- the Clopay model 4310 and Millennium model 6252** - steel roll-up garage door in white with long panels without windows. You may purchase either of these doors from any supplier of your choice. Reminder that you need to get prior approval using an Architectural Change Approval Application form.

    ** The original manufacturer of the Millennium door is no longer making it. To continue to offer you two options, RDTA located the company that purchased the molds for this door. As of September 22, 2009 the second approved door is clarified as "Unique Millennium Replacement Non-shadow Groove Line, Long Panel Design, No Windows, White, Steel Back". This door must be manufactured by Unique Garage Door Company. When ordering the door you must use the complete description "Unique Millennium Replacement Non-shadow Groove Line, Long Panel Design, No Windows, White, Steel Back. Note: This will be a special order and may take two or three weeks to process."

The Board has also approve a flip up version of approved garage door models, if the homeowner is unable to use the roll up garage door due to garage cabinet installation.

When comparing prices, ask each vendor to quote one price that includes the door, installation, and tax. Be sure they will cart away your old door. If you have a newer model door opener (operator), you may be able to have this remounted for the new door. Ask if remounting of old opener is included in the price or an extra charge. If your opener is quite old, it may not meet current safety standards and may not be strong enough to operate the new steel door.

VIII. GARAGE DOOR REPLACEMENT
Prior approval is required from the Architectural Committee for garage door replacement. The only approved replacement garage door models are the Clopay model 4310 and Millennium model 6252 steel roll- up garage door in white, long panel without windows. A flip up version of approved garage door models may be installed, if the homeowner is unable to use the roll up garage door due to garage cabinet installation.

Any wood repair to garage door (frame or sheathing) requires the door be replaced with either of the two approved steel models.

[NOTE: Millennium model 6252 is available through source noted above.]
