Whether you want to convert two single garage doors into one large opening or split one big door into two, we provide safe, affordable, structural conversions you can trust.
Garage door conversion is the process of changing the structure of your garage to create either a single wide garage door or two separated garage doors, depending on your needs. This involves modifying the framing, header beam, tracks, hardware, and door configuration to match the new layout.
We specialize in both types of conversions:
2 single garage doors → 1 large door
1 large garage door → 2 single doors
Our technicians ensure proper structural support, balance, safety, and clean finishing—boosting both curb appeal and property value.
We evaluate your existing structure, measure openings, and determine the best type of wide garage door.
We safely remove the middle column (mullion) between the two doors to create space for one large door.
A new engineered header beam is installed to support the wider opening.
This ensures long-term safety and durability.
We install your new wide garage door along with upgraded tracks, springs, and hardware.
We seal edges, install trim, fine-tune the opener, and complete the project with a clean, seamless finish.
If you’re looking for a professional garage door conversion in Connecticut, 5 Star Garage Door is your local expert. We specialize in converting two single garage doors into one large double garage door — or the reverse — to improve curb appeal, functionality, and the value of your home.
Many older homes in Naugatuck, Waterbury, Hartford, New Haven, and surrounding areas were built with two separate single garage doors. Converting them into one wide double door is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make. It modernizes your home’s exterior, eliminates the center post between doors, and makes pulling in and out much easier.
Some homeowners prefer the opposite — splitting one large opening into two separate doors. This is common when a garage is being divided into separate spaces, or when a property is converted to multi-unit use. Our team handles all framing, structural modifications, and new door installation.
