Extira

Anthony Carrino takes a look at his Reserve Wood Extira garage door four years after the install to see how it has held up over time. Check out the full video to see how it has held up over time.

Watch Anthony’s video review.

In 2019, HGTV designer Anthony Carrino selected a Reserve Extira wood composite carriage style door for his historic firehouse renovation in New Jersey.

Not only did it have to stand up to harsh winters and southern exposure, all of the building materials had to be approved by the Historic Preservation Board. Extira was the first composite material they have ever ok’d.

We trust the craftsmanship and durability of the doors we sell, but it’s always nice to hear that a product’s performance exceeds the customer’s expectations.

See more pictures of Anthony’s firehouse renovation on our blog along with a behind the scenes look at his door being made at the Clopay factory.
