What is the average cost to install a garage door?

As of January 2015, the average cost to install a garage door ranges from about $700 to $1,200. The cost includes the garage door, labor, materials and supplies. The overall cost of the project is determined by the number of doors being installed and geographic location.

A homeowner may need to relocate or modify the structure of his home or the HVAC, electrical or plumbing system before installing a garage door, which also affects the price. The home might need to be in compliance with the most current building codes before a garage door can be installed. Contractors may charge a fee for overhead, and there could be inspection or permit fees that would add to the cost of the project.
