What’s included
Four facesa modern door can take.
A modern door for a Vaughan house is chosen for the house it goes on and ordered to the opening, 25 minutes from the shop; a flush or glass door hung in the same opening is the kind the City of Vaughan exempts from a building permit, and the size of the opening is what City of Vaughan Building Standards department reviews, not the colour or the glass.
02Long panel
Long panel and planks
Across the door run long horizontal lines, just a few, with lites above; painted steel or wood-look.
- Long-panel steel
- Painted steel
- Wood-look finish
- A row of clear lites
03Glass
Full-view glass doors
Aluminium frames with glass in every section, frosted for privacy or clear for a workshop.
- Aluminium frames
- Frosted or clear glass
- Insulated glazing
- Daylight in the garage
04Lites
Glass in a row or column
Nothing changes how the door looks as much as where the lites go: a column at the side or a row at the top.
- A top row of lites
- A side column of lites
- Square or long lites
- Frosted or clear lites

Rated 4.9 out of 5 from 70 reviews on Google (opens Google Maps)After years of dents and damage from hockey pucks, our new garage door looks amazing!!
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.

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.

Planning a new door5 questions
Glass and finish swing the price of a modern door further than anything else. Glazing in every section, frosted panes or insulated glass cost more than a plain flush face, and a custom colour, carriage-house hardware or a larger opening add more. Size matters too in the big estate houses of north Kleinburg and northeast Maple. One figure comes back before work begins.
A standard replacement is normally done in a day once the door exists. It is made to the measured opening, so the delay is manufacturing, and the date is set when you order. A custom size, jamb repairs or a new opener make the visit longer.
Not if it fills the same opening as the old door, whatever its style. A wider or taller opening changes the header and goes to the City of Vaughan. In a condominium, check the corporation's rules on style and colour before choosing a face.
Yes. Older openings are often non-standard, so the door is made to fit rather than pulled from stock, and an odd height means custom sizing. The five measurements settle it before anything is ordered.
On the larger estate-style builds of north Kleinburg, the door is one of the biggest things on the front, so proportion matters more than finish: how many sections it has, how tall each panel runs and where glass sits against the windows above. The opening is measured at the house instead of guessed from the street. Two photos taken square on to the garage are enough to start the estimate.
A door that won't work5 questions
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.

It depends on the model, which sets the largest pane. Full-view doors carry glass in every section; inserts fill part of one or two. The estimate says which the model allows.
Asked next
Yes, provided the same model is still in production, because a new section has to match its neighbours in profile and finish. If the model has been discontinued, a new door is the plain answer.

In Canada. Replacement doors are built here whatever the style, and a lifetime warranty comes with them.

The guide
Modern garage doors in Vaughan: good to know.
What is different about modern garage doors in Vaughan: the houses, the rules and the drive from the shop.
Modern garage doors in Vaughan
'Modern' describes the face: flush steel, long panel or full-view aluminium and glass, with lites in a row or a column, or none at all. Black, graphite and wood-look are on offer. An insulated steel door can wear a wood-look or carriage-style finish without the refinishing real wood demands, and it puts a lighter load on the hardware.
Painting the garage door and the front door as a pair changes how the front of a house reads more than almost any other choice, and the same crew can hang the front door on that visit. Frosted or obscured glass is a privacy choice: it lets light in without showing the garage.
Modern garage door permits in Vaughan
A modern door in the same opening is a straight swap, which seldom needs a building permit. Cut a wider or taller opening for a big glass door and the header changes; that is structural, so it normally needs a permit, sometimes an engineer. The City of Vaughan is the office to ask.
Condominium corporations can have style and colour rules. A modern face is often the first thing they touch, so read them before a style is chosen.
Maple's estate streets near Dufferin
Estate housing began going up northeast of Maple's original village, near Dufferin Street, in the late 1990s. That is a different build from the 1980s subdivisions to the northwest, so opening sizes and the style that suits the front are not the same on both, and the door is ordered against the house in front of us, not against a standard.
Doors on houses from those years are now well past 20 years old, so a modern replacement is often a worn-out door as much as a change of look. Two photos, one from the driveway and one from inside, tell us whether the old door is worth keeping before a modern one is priced.
