One of the things that sets Moulton Custom Door apart from other companies is our skill and experience with larger garage doors. These sectional doors are taller or wider than traditional doors and take special consideration when designing and engineering them. We pride ourselves in our work and expertise in this class of door and we are one of a handful of companies that works with these on a regular basis. From a massive single 'moving wall' to false center posts to give the illusion of more than one door, you won't find anyone better.
This was one monumental garage door! I was excited to use concepts tested in the large doors we had built in the past. The dimensions were 14' X 14', 3" thick, weighing in at 900 lbs. This was a chance to use a large, heavy 12’ wide by 3’ tall...
This garage door was the first we installed on Nantucket Island in Massachusetts, an offshore installation requiring a certain level of preparation. Note matched white cedar. The photo above is one of our first large doors. The windows were cut into the section and a sill added.
Customer was great to work with, he really knew what he wanted. As a contractor, he understood building design and we were delighted to implement the design he gave us. Above, you can see how the owner / contractor designed oversized garage door matches the building, also of his own...
This owner knew exactly what he wanted: a garage door 7' high in just three sections. Our preference is to break such a door into 4 sections, for smoother operation. This is our only three section in 7' high out there. Five years later, door is still operating satisfactorily. This...
It took a while to come up with a design for this remodel. The owner trusted us to simulate two smaller doors while maintaining the same size door. We used a false center post which protrudes two inches above the surface of the door, creating a shadow that fools the...
Note arched horizontal center munton. The architect designed these doors so that the top of the windows become part of the header and trim for opening, thus creating a flawless look to the entire structure. As seen in the photo above, the curved window panel was innovative,
At 1147 lbs, this is one of the heavier doors we ever built. Do not try this at home! Structurally this pushed everything to the limit but has worked very well. Four years later, the door is still delivering reliable service and the owner is very happy with it. Moulton...
Designed by owner. Owner and contractor were a pleasure to work with. Owner very kindly commented on our 'artistic' approach to designing our doors! In the photo above, it is hard to decide which looks better; The House or the Garage! We think our door makes a difference.
Once again, these wide doors require more engineering and some finess in order for them to operate in a truly reliable fashion. As seen in the photo above, this door was designed by the architect to represent a multiple horizontal panel door to match the rest of the building. Designed...
Owner dubbed this building 'The Garage-Mahal' due to the two massive doors we installed, as seen in the above photo. In the rear of the building are two smaller doors to finish up this car collecter's beautiful collection hall. All doors were highlifted 36" to the ceiling to furnish maximum headroom...
Scroll down this page for a great shot of how our custom weather seal works. It was fun to be part of this project. The owners were very happy and the crew was great to work with. We matched the look of the siding of the home with what we...
An economical alternative to a fully covered door, as you can see in the photo above, the detail layer was applied directly to the base door. Hence the horizontal section break lines in the panels are more visible. The overall look was achieved to the owner's satisfation. Actually, they were...
A convincing false center post design has once again turned out to be the best solution when trying to come up with an architecturally correct double wide door. Our work for this owner on previous jobs earned us the trust to do what we felt was needed to match and...
