In a world of instant gratification, we've gotten used to getting what we want fast. It's not just burgers and fries or streaming movies, either. Heck, Amazon can sometimes deliver your orders on the same day you order them!Â
But when it comes to home upgrades that genuinely make a difference, quality still matters. And quality takes time. Every GarageSkins System order is crafted with care, precision, and attention to detail. Our custom garage door panels are not mass-produced. They're individually crafted to enhance your home's appearance and stand the test of time.
If you're considering a GarageSkins transformation, it's important to understand the lead-time involved. Here's what to expect, and why the wait is worth it.
Â
Made to Order, Not Off the Shelf
GarageSkins panels aren't pulled from a warehouse. Each order is made specifically for you. That means the finish, size, and style are manufactured to fit your existing garage door and aesthetic vision. This customized approach ensures a higher-quality product that fits better, lasts longer, and looks exceptional:
-
Real wood veneers are carefully selected and matched for tone and grain.
-
Magnetic backings are engineered to align perfectly with the garage door dimensions you've measured.
-
Protective treatments are applied to enhance durability and weather resistance.
This process takes time, but it's what separates GarageSkins from quick-fix solutions and cookie-cutter alternatives.
Â
Current Lead Times: What You Should Know
On average, GarageSkins orders take approximately 10 to 12 weeks to complete and ship, depending on current demand and your selected style. While this may vary slightly throughout the year, we prioritize quality and accuracy in every order.
We know waiting can be frustrating, but our customers consistently tell us the results are well worth it. Just as we expect our customers to take time to measure their doors carefully and consider the color, pattern, and style that will work best with their homes, we take our time to craft your panels so that they live up to your high expectations. Once installed, your GarageSkins panels will completely transform your home's exterior, something that's worth doing right the first time.
When your GarageSkins order arrives, you'll know the wait was worth it. You're not just getting cosmetic coverings, you're getting:
-
A real wood finish that looks custom and feels authentic
-
A fast, tool-free installation process
-
A dramatic curb appeal upgrade with minimal cost or disruption
-
Long-lasting performance backed by quality craftsmanship
Â
Plan for Upcoming Events
If you're thinking about upgrading your garage door before a big occasion, such as an open house or a holiday event, place your order early. Giving yourself a few extra weeks on the front end ensures you won't be rushed when it's time to install.
Here are a few smart times to start planning:
-
Spring real estate season (order by early winter)
-
Summer renovation projects (order by early spring)
-
Holiday hosting season (order by early fall)
Once your order is placed, we'll keep you updated every step of the way. You'll receive confirmation of your order, an estimated delivery date, and tracking information as your order moves through production. Our customer service team is always available to answer questions or provide updates.

Quality Is Always Worth the Wait
In a world of shortcuts, quick fixes, and cheap knock-offs, GarageSkins stands out by doing things differently. We believe the best things—like a beautifully updated home—are worth doing right.
