What’s included
A modern door for a Newmarket house is chosen for the house it goes on and ordered to the opening, 30 minutes from the shop; a flush or glass door hung in the same opening is the kind the Town of Newmarket exempts from a building permit, and the size of the opening is what Town of Newmarket Building Division (Planning and Building Services) reviews, not the colour or the glass.
01Flush
No raised panels, only plain joints across a smooth face; black or graphite, lites if wanted.
02Long panel
A few long horizontal lines across the door, in painted steel or a wood-look finish, with lites above.
03Glass
Frosted suits privacy, clear a workshop; aluminium frames carry glass in every section.
04Lites
Where the lites go changes the face more than any other choice: a row along the top, or a column down one side.

I’m very happy with the work done on my front door and garage door. … Both doors look amazing …
Everyone else told me I’d be waiting anywhere from 6 weeks to 4 months just to get a door delivered and installed.
My garage spring and cables snapped on a Sunday afternoon, Moe was able to swing by the next morning …
Great Service by Moe, very clean job, on time and no surprises.
It completely changed the look of my home and has already received so many compliments.
The work was done in 5 hours and they cleaned up after themselves leaving no trace of my old garage door and front door.
I called Moe he was here in the same hour and we got our new doors in two days
He didn’t just fix the immediate problem … made sure the door was running smoother and quieter than before.
We were presented with multiple options and given the pros and cons of each.
… replacing my destroyed garage door for a beautiful modern style door.
Replaced my front door and garage door with a remote. … the finished work looks amazing.
I had a quote within a day … and the new door installed by that weekend.
Garage door spring was broken. Moe was able to come out the next day and fit it.
Moe takes the time to get to know what your needs are and has affordable recommendations.
Moe did an excellent job replacing our old, worn down garage door with a beautiful, heavy duty white one.
… he was here the next day and we had our garage doors and front doors done within one week.
The whole process was seamless and I couldn’t believe how fast the job was completed without any hiccups.
… came on short notice to take a look. He quickly diagnosed the problem and had it fixed in no time.
They were super on time, super efficient, and the price was dead on.
Projects
Real jobs on our customers’ houses, recreated from the photos we took: the door we took down, and the one we hung in its place.
A two-car door, dented end to end.

Every section of the old door was dented, and the middle had torn open. We hung a flush steel door in the same opening, charcoal to sit with the dark siding, under the same basketball hoop.

FAQ
What Newmarket homeowners ask about modern garage doors, and the questions every door raises.

Material and size set the base: steel is the most common and its gauge matters, wood and wood composite carry a premium, and aluminium with glass suits contemporary builds. Window layout, custom colour and hardware then move the number, with the springs matched to the door's weight. The estimate is free, built from two photos, with one figure quoted before you order.
The door is built to size, so the wait is the order's lead time, and you are given a date when you place it. Hanging a standard single or double usually finishes the same day. A new opener, repairs to the jamb or an oversize custom door add time.
A like-for-like swap in the existing opening generally needs no building permit. A wider or taller opening means altering the structure above it, which is where Newmarket's permit rules start, sometimes with an engineer's input. Condo corporations can add their own style and colour rules.
Raise it with the Town first. Lower Main Street South is Newmarket's Heritage Conservation District, and alterations there are ruled on by the Town, with a heritage permit for the ones that count. A new front door or window does, while a garage door is the Town's call. The style is chosen after that answer, and the door is made only then. Outside the district, the style is yours to choose.
The springs, yes, because they are sized to the weight of that door: a heavy door hung on springs meant for a light one will not balance and wears the opener. A sound opener can stay. A jackshaft opener mounted on the wall beside the door clears the ceiling, though it needs torsion springs and clear space to one side, so not every garage suits one.
Yes. Modern Empire Doors is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, holidays included, and the phone is answered at night. A door stuck open is a security problem, and a door stuck shut with the car inside is a lost day, so neither waits for Monday. Some things can wait for a weekday: a noisy door, a remote that stopped while the wall button still works, a torn seal. If you are not sure which yours is, call and ask.
Usually, yes. The parts that fail most often are carried on the van, so most repairs are finished on the first visit. If you text a photo from inside the garage before we come, we can often see what has failed and make sure the right part is with us. The exceptions are parts made for one door, such as a replacement section in a matching design and colour, which may have to be ordered in. In the meantime the door can usually be secured so the garage still locks.
It depends on the part, and most repairs come down to a handful: springs, cables, rollers, the opener or the safety sensors. We would rather tell you the real price for your door than quote a range that does not apply to it, so text a photo from inside the garage to (647) 323-1826 and we can usually tell which part it is before we arrive. Most repairs are finished in one visit, and you hear the price before any work starts.
Often, if the same section is still made. What people call a panel is usually a full-width section, and the new one has to match the make, size, design and colour of the rest. On a newer door from a current series that is usually possible. On an older or discontinued door it may not be, and a mismatched section can look worse than the dent. Sun-faded finishes are the other catch. Send a photo, plus any label on the door's inside edge, and we will tell you honestly.
Richmond Hill first: our shop is at 138 Yorkland St. From there we cover Vaughan, Markham, Thornhill, Aurora, Newmarket, Whitchurch-Stouffville, King City, Toronto, North York, Scarborough, Etobicoke and Durham Region, for new doors and for repairs, at any hour. If you are close by and not sure whether you are in the area, call (647) 323-1826 and ask; we would rather tell you straight than have you wait.

Yes. The doors are made in Canada to the measurements of your opening and carry a lifetime warranty, and the crew goes over what it covers before leaving.
Asked next
Yes, and window style is one of the larger moves in a modern door's quote. Insulated glazing, frosted or obscured panes and decorative inserts are priced into the door, alongside colour and hardware.
Asked next
Yes. The same crew replaces front doors and garage doors, so the two can be quoted together and the finish of each chosen against the other. Customers praise how the house looks afterwards.

The guide
What is different about modern garage doors in Newmarket: the houses, the rules and the drive from the shop.
Three decisions make up a modern door: how it is built, how it looks and what it hangs on. Build is insulation and construction. Look is panel style, colour and the glass in the top section. Most doors are steel, aluminium with glass suits contemporary builds, and insulated steel can carry a wood-look finish without real wood's upkeep. Fibreglass and vinyl trade a little appearance for easy maintenance.
Hardware is the third. A heavier door needs springs sized for it, nylon rollers run quieter than steel ones, and where a bedroom sits above or next to the garage, a belt-drive opener is the quiet choice. Estimating starts with two photos sent by text, one outside and one inside, and the opening is measured on site before the door is made. The shop is a 30-minute drive (29.1 km) away.
Hanging a modern door in the opening you already have counts as like for like, which seldom needs a building permit. The question starts when the opening changes. A wider or taller one means altering the structure above it, which normally brings a permit from the Town of Newmarket and sometimes an engineer. Settling that early keeps an order from stalling.
The other Newmarket line is the heritage district on Lower Main Street South. Alterations there go through the Town's heritage permit, and a front door or window replaced there is one. A garage door on such a property is for the Town to rule on, so the style is chosen after its answer. A standard replacement is normally finished on the day it is hung.
