Standard Garage Door Sizes
Many people search for “standard garage
door sizes” on a daily basis. However there
are many common size garage door widths and heights but the standard size is
probably more a matter of the age of
your home and what area of the town,
state, or country that you live in.
In some areas most of the newer doors will be 9x7, 9x8, 16x7, or 16x8. However there are many developments where the builder wanted a little different look from every other neighborhood and may have used 10’ wide or 18’ wide doors. On some older homes 14’ and 15’ wide doors were used in some areas on a regular basis. Also 20-30 years ago 8’ wide single car garage doors werevery common but as cars got bigger and trucks and SUV’s became more popular the standard door on many new homes were made wider and sometimes taller to accommodate larger vehicles.
