If your garage door company serves Duluth, you see it street after street: well-kept homes where the original garage door is now the tiredest thing on the front — and the homeowner wants the carriage look without the upkeep of a wood face. Carriage Door Creations builds single overlay carriage doors to order in our Lawrenceville shop and supplies garage door companies across the Southeast. Custom carriage doors, built for your company. Call 678-926-3404 to set up supply.
Most of Duluth's housing stock was built in a building boom — the established streets of Berkeley Hills, the brick and siding homes in Cardinal Lake and Riverbrooke, and the subdivisions that grew up along Pleasant Hill Road and Buford Highway as the town spread out from its older downtown core. Those homes are now at the age where the original garage door is faded, thin, and styled for the decade it was installed. A single overlay carriage door is the practical replacement your company can offer in Duluth — a made-to-order carriage design with real depth and shadow lines, in materials chosen to be left alone once your crews have it up.
A REPLACEMENT THAT CHANGES THE WHOLE FRONT OF THE HOUSE
Carriage styling works especially well on Duluth's dominant house types — a strong selling point for your customers. Two-story traditionals in Riverbrooke gain the strong, symmetrical face that suits a centered double door. Ranch and split-level homes near downtown and along Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, where the garage sits close to the street, get detail your customer can actually see from the curb instead of a flat panel. Around Sugarloaf Country Club, where homes are larger and lots are manicured, a drawn-to-scale design with the right window section holds up next to stone, brick, and shake instead of looking like a catalog door stretched to fit.
Because every door is built to order, the overlay pattern is laid out for your customer's opening — not divided into whatever sections a standard size happens to produce. We provide CAD drawings for your customer's approval before the build, so they sign off on the board pattern, window shape, and hardware layout while it is still lines on a page.
TWO WAYS TO BUILD THE OVERLAY
Extira® over steel-back. Our standard single overlay door uses ½-inch Extira® overlay detailing — a moisture-resistant material made to not rot — applied over a 2-inch foam-insulated steel-back panel. It gives your customer crisp, raised carriage detailing and an insulated door behind it, with low maintenance as the point of the design.
Vinyl-back with LP® SmartSide. For a more accessible price point, we also build a vinyl-back option finished in LP® SmartSide, in smooth or wood-grain. Customers working through a whole exterior refresh in Berkeley Hills or Cardinal Lake often land here: the carriage face is there, the finish options cover most Duluth color palettes, and the budget leaves room for the rest of the project.
Either way, this is a built-to-order door from a local shop — if your customer's priority is the natural grain of a real hardwood face instead, your company can compare it with our custom wood carriage doors ( https://carriagedoorcreations.com/custom-wood-carriage-garage-doors/)
before they decide.
FROM OUR SHOP TO YOUR CREW
The dealer flow is straightforward: you consult with us by phone, measure the opening, and spec the job for your customer. They review and approve the CAD drawing, pick finish and hardware, and we build the door in Lawrenceville.
WHY CHOOSE CARRIAGE DOOR CREATIONS Duluth customers do not need another stock door aged a different color — and your company does not need a woodshop to sell them better. They need a door designed for the house, in materials that suit a busy household, built by a manufacturer in Lawrenceville supplying dealers across the Southeast, with CAD-backed selling on every order.
