Steel doors last forever if you can avoid hitting them.Mine are ten years old, composite, which means they're bubbling and not able to sand and paint. What's are you all replacing your garage doors with? What has the best/longest shelf life for our Canadian weather and keeps the garage reasonably warm in the winter?
Quotes are $3200 for two. It's a shame to have to spend so much money on something without a motor
That is actually cheaper than I thought for two doors, mine are very old, wood and rotting. I'm replacing next year as not in the budget this year..Mine are ten years old, composite, which means they're bubbling and not able to sand and paint.

Except when they rust at the bottom corners from road salt.
That's where mine are. Garaga, about 18 years old.
This. You don't use salt or calcium chloride on your driveway?
Mine as well. 19 years old
Falls off the cars stored inside.
As you said, steel doors will last forever.
Are the builder doors wood or composite? The problem with the composite is that they begin to blister in the heat... vinyl may do the same.
If possible, go aluminum. I went steel because Garaga has more available colours in steel than aluminum. Something else to consider. My door faces west and has now faded considerably. If you want a darker colour and your house faces south or west, it will fade. After almost 20 years I will be replacing mine soon.
That's only if you're putting a car in the garage AND we all know they're really just for bikes.
What if the salt is falling off the bikes?
