AfterSingle Car Door in Las Vegas, NV
A single car garage door in Las Vegas typically runs $950 to $2,400 installed, depending on material, insulation, and whether you’re replacing just the door or the track and opener too. Most single-door installs in the Vegas valley take one day, and the job includes hauling away the old door. Bramwell Garage Doors Las Vegas handles single car doors on detached garages, attached garages, and the carport conversions common in older neighborhoods like Paradise Palms and Huntridge.

What makes a single car door different from a double is not just width. Standard single doors measure 8 by 7 feet or 9 by 7 feet, and they run on a single torsion spring assembly rather than the two-spring setup on wider doors. That smaller footprint means less weight, but it also means Las Vegas heat hits the panel material harder because there is less surface area to dissipate temperature. We see single car doors on older Summerlin ranchers warp faster on the west-facing side than double doors on the same block, which is why we recommend insulated steel for almost every Las Vegas install.
Every Bramwell location is independently owned and operated and has agreed to work to the same four Kingswell standards. For us, that means a written price before any work starts, a real arrival window we actually hit, a clean job site when we leave, and a written guarantee on every single car door we install. Marcus Ellery runs this Las Vegas location, and he or one of our background-checked, uniformed technicians will be the one who shows up at your door.
When You Need Single Car Door
Here are the situations where Las Vegas homeowners call us about a single car door, and what we usually find when we get there.
- Your single door is original to the house. Homes built in the 1980s and 1990s in neighborhoods like Green Valley and The Lakes often still have their first door. The steel is thin, the insulation is nonexistent, and the bottom seal has petrified in the desert heat. A new door cuts garage temperatures by 15 to 20 degrees in July.
- The door sags or jams on one side. Single doors run on lighter track than doubles, and years of use against a settling slab will pull the track out of square. You’ll hear grinding at the rollers or see daylight through one side of the opening.
- You’re converting a carport to an enclosed garage. This is common in mid-century neighborhoods across central Las Vegas. It means framing an opening, hanging track, and sizing a door to fit a space that was never built for one. Curb appeal goes up immediately.
- You’re selling the house. Realtors in Las Vegas will tell you a dented or peeling single garage door is one of the first things buyers notice from the street. A replacement usually recovers its cost at closing, especially in HOA neighborhoods where curb standards are enforced.
- Your opener struggles or the door bounces. An undersized opener on a heavy solid-wood single door will strain every cycle. We see this on custom doors in the Scotch 80s and Rancho Bel Air, where homeowners matched the door style but not the motor to it.
- The spring broke and the door is stuck. A broken torsion spring locks the door in place, and forcing it open bends the track and damages the panels. This is a repair issue, but it often becomes the moment a homeowner decides to replace the whole assembly.
Our Single Car Door Process
Here is how a new door installation goes when Bramwell handles it, start to finish.
- You call and a live person answers. Not a voicemail tree. Our phones are answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays. We’ll ask about the door size, the age of the house, and what you’re seeing now, then set a real arrival window.
- We measure and price it in writing. The technician arrives within the stated window, measures the rough opening, checks the header and side clearance, and writes you a price before any work starts. That number includes the door, track, hardware, labor, and haul-away of the old door.
- We install the door and check the balance. We hang the panels, set the torsion spring, run the track, and then test the door by hand at three points: floor, mid-height, and fully open. If the door drifts at any point, we correct the spring tension before we leave.
- We program the opener and run the safety reverse test. If you’re keeping your existing opener, we’ll connect it to the new door. If we’re installing a LiftMaster or Chamberlain opener, we program remotes, keypad, and the auto-reverse system. The door will reverse off a 2×4 laid flat under it, every time.
- We clean the job site and walk you through the door. Old panels, packaging, and broken spring parts leave with us. Then we show you how the manual release works, where the balance points are, and what the guarantee covers and for how long. You get the Kingswell Guarantee in writing.
Single Car Door Pricing in Las Vegas
What you’ll pay for a single car door in Las Vegas depends mostly on material and insulation. For a full breakdown, see our guide on how much garage door installation costs in Las Vegas. Expect to spend:
- Basic non-insulated steel single door: $950 to $1,400 installed
- Insulated steel single door, polyurethane core: $1,400 to $2,000 installed
- Designer or carriage-house style single door: $1,800 to $2,400 installed
- Full replacement including new track and opener: add $400 to $650
Those ranges include removing and hauling away the old door, standard track, torsion spring, hinges, rollers, and labor. Things that move the price up: custom colors beyond standard options, windows in the top section, adding an opener where none exists, and replacing damaged framing around the opening. Things that move the price down: choosing a standard white non-insulated door and reusing a healthy opener and track.
We give you a written price before any work starts, so the number on the invoice matches the number you heard at the door. No surprise add-ons. Every single car door install we do is protected by the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if the door fails within a year and it is covered under the repair guarantee, we come back and fix it at no charge. That commitment is in writing, not just spoken.
Call (725) 210-0201 for a free estimate. You’ll get a real appointment window and a technician in uniform who knows the difference between a torsion spring and an extension spring and can explain it in plain English.
FAQs – Single Car Door
How much does a single car garage door cost in Las Vegas?
A single car door in Las Vegas typically costs $950 to $2,400 installed, with mid-range insulated steel doors landing around $1,400 to $2,000. The final number depends on panel insulation, window options, and whether you’re replacing the track and opener at the same time. Call (725) 210-0201 and we’ll give you a free written estimate with no obligation.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a single car door?
A panel replacement or spring repair on a single door usually runs $150 to $380, so repairing is cheaper when the door structure is still sound. But if the track is bent, the panels are rusted through, or the door predates modern safety standards, replacement often costs less than chasing repairs every year. We’ll show you the numbers and let you decide.
Can you install a single car door the same day?
In most cases, yes, if we have the right door size and style in local inventory. Standard 8-by-7 non-insulated and insulated single doors are commonly available next-day if not same-day. Call (725) 210-0201 and we’ll confirm what’s on the truck or in the Las Vegas warehouse before you commit.
What brand of single car door should I get?
We install and service all major brands including Clopay, Genie, and Chamberlain, and we size the recommendation to your garage. For Las Vegas heat, we point most homeowners toward a polyurethane-insulated steel door, which holds up better against summer sun and cuts garage temperatures noticeably. We’ll walk you through brand options and price differences at your free estimate.
How long does a single car door install take?
A standard single car door install takes 3 to 5 hours from arrival to cleanup, including hauling away the old door and programming any opener we connect. If we’re also replacing the opener or reframing the opening, budget a full day. We leave the job site clean and walk you through the door before we go.
