Garage Doors in New York

Western New York experienced what meteorologists called a ‘once in a generation’ storm in December 2022, when a lake-effect blizzard buried the Buffalo area under nearly four feet of snow and held the region under blizzard conditions for 37.5 consecutive hours — the longest stretch in the city's recorded history — with wind gusts reaching 79 mph and dozens of deaths tied to the storm across Erie County. A garage door is typically the largest unreinforced opening in a home's exterior wall, and sustained wind loads and drifting snow of that intensity can bow panels, strain the tracks and rollers holding the door in place, or knock it off alignment entirely, on top of the extra strain an opener takes on when ice builds up along the bottom seal. Lake-effect snow bands return to the Buffalo and Watertown areas most winters, not just in exceptional years like 2022, so garage doors across upstate New York see this kind of wind and snow stress on a fairly regular basis.
