Non-wood carriage/barn style garage door

| Posted in General Discussion on

Hello, I’m building a home on the Oregon coast and want to use a carriage style garage door.  Due to the salt air and Southern exposure, I want to avoid the heavy maintenance of wood.  Does anyone know of a steel (or other sturdy material) garage door in the carriage or barn door style (with windows)?    I’ll need 3 singles for my hobby woodshop.  Thanks for all info.  Rob

      Sorry, I didn't read carefully, I thought you said wood. I know CHI and Clopay And wayne dalton all make a steel door with a faux wood grain finish, I don't know anything about the durability or quality.
