Reserve® Wood Custom

There’s something special about coming home to a one-of-a-kind wood garage door that’s built just for you. Every curve, every panel, every grain of wood brought to life exactly as you pictured it. That’s the magic of the Reserve® Wood Custom series. If you can dream it, we can build it. No templates, no limits—just your ideas, realized in hand-selected, sustainably sourced woods.

Make a distinct choice with Ipe or Sapele Mahogany or a classic like Cedar or Oak. Each door is handcrafted from premium wood that will bring an authentic look and texture to your home. You can pick any stain or paint under the sun; sketch out custom windows, play with specialty glass, and select hardware that makes a statement. You get to choose every detail; it’s where our expertise meets your personal vision and no two doors are ever alike. With Clopay, you’re not just upgrading your garage, you’re getting a showpiece that makes every homecoming special.

How It’s Made: Reserve® Wood Custom

Upgrade your home with a garage door that’s as sturdy as it is stunning. Every Reserve® Wood Custom door is handcrafted from sustainable, naturally fallen wood, highlighting the unique character of each fine wood species.

These doors are built with a multi-layer design: a beautiful wood overlay, your choice of base materials, an insulated Hemlock frame for added strength and comfort, and a Luan backer for extra durability. Polystyrene insulation is tucked inside to help keep your garage comfortable year-round.

Each door is constructed in three panel sections to accommodate larger window openings. A unique one-piece drip cap keeps water away from the overlays, protecting your door from moisture and extending its life. Premium hardware and smooth-gliding rollers mean every open and close is quiet and effortless, while a replaceable vinyl bottom weather seal helps block out air and water. Choose from convenient overhead operation or an authentic swing-out carriage house style.
