About the Canyon Ridge Collection

The Canyon Ridge Collection is a line of high R-value carriage house style garage doors constructed from a durable, low-maintenance composite polymer material that looks like real wood.

The ½” thick cladding and overlays are attached to a polyurethane insulated three-layer steel base door for added strength and energy efficiency, delivering an impressive 19.2 R-value.
The material is molded from actual wood to replicate the species’ natural texture and intricate grain patterns as well as its imperfections. But unlike wood, it’s moisture resistant, so it won’t rot, split, shrink, separate, or crack.

GreenBuilder was introduced to the Canyon Ridge Collection through Clopay’s involvement with the magazine’s energy-efficient ReVISION House at the 2011 International Builders Show in Orlando, Fla.

The deep-energy retrofit remodeling project incorporated advanced materials and design techniques to significantly enhance energy performance and resource efficiency.

The builder, Southern Traditions Development, and architect Patricia Gaylor originally had specified natural wood carriage house garage doors, but opted for Clopay’s Canyon Ridge Collection instead when they realized they could get the same beautiful look, improved energy efficiency and less maintenance.

Clopay offers many Canyon Ridge Collection designs, cladding types and finishes to fit a variety of home styles. Optional windows and decorative hardware can be added to enhance the character of the doors.
