My garage door is on its last legs, and I've been searching for a replacement. It's frustrating because I can't seem to find any options at Lowe's or Home Depot unless I go through a specialty garage door company, which charges a pretty penny. I've installed garage doors before, so I know I can handle the work myself—this is in Tampa, Florida, by the way.

Yeah, I've heard similar things. It seems like there are issues with stock depending on the brands they carry or supplier problems. If you can't find variations, it might be worth asking them about special orders or looking at online retailers that specialize in garage doors.
I've been able to find garage doors at my local store, so it might depend on the location. It’s true they don’t usually stock them directly, but they should be able to order them for you. Seems odd if you can't get any options at all in your area!
Actually, you can order garage doors through Lowe's and Home Depot online. They don't keep them in stock in the store, but their websites have options available. Maybe check out their online inventory?
I tried that, but the guy at Lowe's told me they can't actually place an order for me. It was really confusing!
I thought of going online, but it's strange that none of the typical options are available. Guess it’s a supply chain issue or something!
