There’s a reason so many homeowners choose the Bridgeport™ Steel door: it captures that classic, handcrafted look and offers durable steel you can count on. Inspired by traditional stile and rail designs, the Bridgeport™ brings clean, recessed panels and precise symmetry to your garage without any of the fuss.
Choose from wide or narrow panel styles, a huge range of colors (including wood-look finishes so real you’ll do a double-take), and plenty of window and hardware options to make it yours. Underneath, Clopay’s Intellicore® insulation means your garage stays quieter, warmer, and just plain tougher. It’s a door built to stand up to every season, with low-maintenance finishes and smooth, reliable operation day in and day out. Bridgeport™ Steel is proof that you really can have curb appeal, durability, and minimal upkeep, all in one smart upgrade.
Choose from 3-layer, 2-layer, or single-layer doors to match your needs for insulation, strength, and budget.
Durable steel construction stands up to daily use, while insulated options keep noise and weather where they belong—outside.
Pick between wide or narrow recessed panels, with optional windows for extra light. Finish your door with 16 color options, including realistic Ultra-Grain® wood-look finishes, modern Lustra matte, or one of 1,500+ Color Blast® custom paint colors.
Insulation choices include Intellicore® polyurethane (up to 2" thick) or energy-saving polystyrene, with R-values ranging from 6.3 to 18.4 to keep your garage comfortable in any season.
Add WindCode® reinforcement for extra protection in high-wind areas.

The Bridgeport™ Steel garage door is built with your home’s comfort and durability in mind. Choose from 1-, 2-, or 3-layer construction, each featuring heavy-duty steel inside and out. For extra comfort, select Intellicore® polyurethane insulation, Clopay’s proprietary foam that fills every inch of the door for maximum strength, warmth, and quiet operation. Or if you want something simpler, polystyrene insulation is also available for reliable energy efficiency.
Every panel is finished with a multi-layer rust-resistant system: hot-dipped galvanizing, a protective metal oxide pretreatment, and a baked-on primer and topcoat. This means your door stands up to rain, snow, and sun, year after year, with nominal upkeep.
Other features include a replaceable vinyl bottom seal to block drafts, patented Safe-T-Bracket® hardware for added safety, and removable window grilles for easy cleaning. All doors insulated with Intellicore® come standard with smooth-gliding nylon rollers and heavy-duty steel hinges for lasting performance.
Bridgeport™ Steel gives you style options to match your home. Choose from two clean, versatile panel designs: the narrow-recessed panel brings a fresh, contemporary feel with slim vertical lines, while the extended recessed panel channels a more traditional vibe with broad, symmetrical sections.
The right choice comes down to your taste and your home’s architecture. You can go with narrow, vertical panels for subtle detail or longer rectangular panels for timeless appeal. No matter which you pick, every design delivers precise lines and balanced proportions. Just keep in mind: 18" sections are available only on 3-layer doors, so section count may vary based on your door’s size and construction.

Bridgeport™ Steel doors are available with a solid top section or you can personalize your door with a variety of window options. Choose from simple rectangular or square windows, elegant arched designs, or even add a touch of drama with decorative wrought iron styles (available in durable acrylic).
If you want a bit more privacy, you can select from plain glass or grilles in several patterns, including vertical and horizontal styles. Double car doors have exclusive “double top” section designs for even more curb appeal. No matter your pick, every window option is designed to complement your door’s proportions and elevate your home’s exterior. So, you can let the light in, show off your style, or both.

Note for Double Top Sections: These are specific to double car doors, in addition to options above.
Customize your Bridgeport™ Steel door’s windows with specialty glass that fits your lifestyle and privacy needs. Choose classic clear glass for maximum sunlight and an open view or opt for decorative seeded or rain glass for a touch of texture and subtle privacy. Frosted and obscure glass both offer higher privacy while still letting in natural light which works well for keeping your garage bright but shielded from outside eyes. For a sleek, modern effect, Midnight Gray glass adds a dramatic tint that stands out day or night.
With these options, you can control the look and feel of your garage door’s windows. Just note: certain glass types may not be available with all window designs, so be sure to ask about your favorites when customizing your door.
From classic neutrals to bold statement shades, Bridgeport™ Steel offers a large color palette. Stick with standard White, Almond, Desert Tan, Sandtone, Bronze, Chocolate, Mocha Brown, or Charcoal, each with subtle woodgrain texture for a warm, natural appearance. Or explore premium finishes like deep Black or the richly grained Ultra-Grain® Oak, available in Medium, Dark, Slate, and Walnut, with select options in low gloss for a modern twist.
If you want something more contemporary, the Lustra™ collection brings noteworthy matte finishes in Charcoal, Black, and Silver, or try Iron Ore for a refined look. And if you want a shade that’s uniquely yours, the Color Blast® program lets you choose from over 1,500 custom colors.
Keep in mind: some premium and matte finishes are available only on select door models, so check which colors fit your design.

Complete your Bridgeport™ Steel door with hardware that’s as sturdy as it is stylish. Every door comes standard with color-matched lift handles, blending seamlessly into your chosen finish for a polished look. But if you want to add a little extra flair, there’s a range of decorative handle and hinge styles—spade, spear, or colonial—for you to consider.
Optional hardware is crafted from durable materials and finished to coordinate with your door, so everything feels cohesive and built to last. Add matching step plates for easy operation and an extra touch of detail. For a more distinctive look, upgrade to twisted “T” or “L” handles or select escutcheon plates for a refined finish.
These hardware options add curb appeal and bring out the best in your Bridgeport™ design, letting you personalize your garage door right down to the last detail.
