Who We Are
About American Garage Door Supply
Specialty garage door, operator, and heater products built for the toughest commercial environments since 1989.
Since 1989 Designed and built in Bemidji, Minnesota National dealer network
American Garage Door Supply builds overhead doors for buildings that destroy ordinary ones: wash bays, salt sheds, food plants, and dealership service drives. We started in 1989 with a single product, an insulated wash bay door for the car, truck, and bus wash market, and the catalog has grown outward from that same problem ever since.
American Garage Door Supply Inc. specializes in products designed and manufactured for some of the worst exposures and applications on earth. Our products are specifically engineered to last longer, operate more reliably, and withstand the rigors of wet, corrosive, and dirty environments.
We build in Bemidji, in north-central Minnesota, and that is not incidental. The freeze-thaw cycles, road salt, and heating costs that define our own market are the same failure modes our customers fight from Maine to Washington. When a Minnesota manufacturer says a door package survives salt and holds heat, it is speaking from its own parking lot.
What We Specialize In
American Garage Door Supply has evolved over the last 37+ years primarily focusing on specialty applications such as car, truck, and bus washes; food processing and storage; waste and water treatment; mining; fertilizer plants; agricultural; and other applications where the conditions require much better than what standard garage door products offer. We are deeply invested in developing these types of products and have been a pioneer delivering the best product solutions for these conditions.
Over the years, we have searched and field-tested many materials, components, and designs to meet and exceed the requirements of car, truck, and other wash-down environments, plus the other tough applications our customers run. The result has been a specialized staff and garage door and operator systems that ensure long life, reliability, and maximum profits year after year.
Leadership
American Garage Door Supply is led by President Kevin Baumgartner. His case for building doors this way starts with what a failed door costs the operator, not with the door itself.
"Broken car wash equipment can destroy your reputation quickly, and those customers may never come back."
Our Philosophy
"Use American-made materials whenever possible, and do our best to utilize our local, regional, and national service providers to support our neighbors and fellow citizens."
We aim to provide convenient lead times, helpful technical support, and friendly customer service, all delivered in an honest and high-integrity manner.
What that buys you is a shorter path to the right door. Our service and support staff carry a combined 100 years in the business, and we will generate shop drawings and submittals for your specific project on request, not just hand you the static PDF library. Send the building and the conditions and we will tell you what it needs.
Ready for a door built for your conditions?
Send the opening size, the application, and how hard the bay runs. You get a door and operator package matched to the exposure, with ballpark pricing and lead time, typically the same business day.
Not sure where to start?
Same form for quotes, parts, and service. Partial project info is a fine place to start, and we will follow up with the questions that matter.
