Frequently asked questions
About the Planks
How realistic is the wood-look finish on the planks garage door?
Our planks doors use high-resolution, digitally printed faux-wood finishes, called Accents Woodtones, that replicate the color, texture, and grain patterns of natural wood. Each design is based on real wood samples, so look authentic even when viewed up-close.
What materials are used to create the wood-look appearance?
Although the door looks like real wood, it's constructed from durable steel. The wood grain pattern is applied using an advanced imaging process and sealed with a protective topcoat to resist fading, peeling, and weathering.
How does a wood-look steel door compare to a real wood garage door?
Wood-look steel doors require far less maintenance than natural wood – no annual sanding, staining, or sealing required. You get the visual warmth of wood without the upkeep or vulnerability to moisture and warping.
Will the wood-look finish fade over time?
The Accents Woodtones finish has UV-resistant coatings designed to maintain color and clarity in direct sunlight. All exterior finishes will weather eventually, our engineered topcoat significantly slows fading compared to painted or natural wood doors.
What wood-look finishes are available?
Planks comes in walnut, driftwood, mahogany, cedar, dark oak, natural oak, and carbon oak. It also comes in a range of solid colors.
Are wood-look garage doors insulated?
Planks is available with polyurethane or polystyrene insulation for better energy efficiency and noise reduction.
Are wood-look garage doors resistant to dents and scratches?
The steel construction provides excellent impact resistance compared to natural wood. No finish is completely scratch-proof, but the protective coating system helps prevent minor blemishes.
Do wood-look garage doors cost more than standard painted steel doors?
Wood-look finishes cost more than standard colors due to the complex imaging process. But, they're significantly more affordable than real wood doors and will save you money on long-term maintenance.
Can the wood-look finish be repaired if it becomes damaged?
Yes, we have touch-up kits for small scratches or chips.
Are wood-look garage doors compatible with modern or contemporary homes?
Absolutely. The planks design features pair well with modern and contemporary architecture – adding both texture and warmth.
