Default New garage door question(s)

on 9/29/2007 7:37 PM havan'at'earthlink.net said the following:
I'm looking at replacing my 40 year old wood garage door with
something new. I'm in So.Cal so things like insulation are not
important. What are the pros and cons of various types of materials
such as wood, vinyl, steel and such? Top of the line is not what I'm
after but would like something that will last for at least ten years.

Thanks,

Harry


My wooden one has lasted more than 23 years, but it's under an overhang.
:-) I would look for a vinyl or aluminum one. Both are light in weight.
Steel can rust and is heavier than the others.
