Framing included
We build or resize the opening and set the header — no separate framing contractor to schedule and manage.
Structural
Turn a carport or workshop into a real garage
Enclosing a carport or converting a workshop is structural work — framing, headers and the door all have to come together. We do every bit of it with one crew, under one warranty, so you're not coordinating a framer, a fab shop and a door installer separately.

Turn a carport or workshop into a real garage
Updated July 2026
Most garage-door companies can only work with the opening you already have. We're different: we resize and frame the rough opening, install or upsize the structural header, and then hang and seal the new door — start to finish.
Free in-home measure & exact quote.Typical installed range: $4,500–$9,500 all-in.

Good questions
Conversions — FAQ
Do I need a permit to enclose a carport?
Usually yes, because it changes the structure. We handle the permit on your behalf in most Lower Mainland municipalities — City of Vancouver fees typically run $500–$2,500 depending on scope.
Can you match the rest of my house?
Yes. We pick a door finish and style that complements your siding and trim, with thousands of custom colours available.
How long does a conversion take?
More than a straight replacement, since there's framing and sometimes a permit. We give you a realistic timeline at the in-home measure.
