Forget everything you thought you knew about garage doors. The Modern Steel™ collection is for people who want their home’s style to hit you before you even step inside. With its precise lines, distinct flush or grooved panels, and a lineup of finishes that includes everything from ultra-sleek matte black to woodgrain looks so convincing, you might just catch people slowing down to stare.
Customize every detail: pick your color, texture, even the glass and window shape. Go minimalist with a solid panel, or add a stack of slim, contemporary windows for that mid-century vibe. And this isn’t just about looks—thanks to Clopay’s Intellicore® insulation, your garage stays comfortable, quiet, and energy-efficient, season after season. Plus, the steel is tough enough to handle life’s bumps and scrapes without losing its edge. If you’re ready to take your home from ordinary to unforgettable, consider the Modern Steel™.
Available in 1, 2, or 3-layer options, so you can pick the right balance of durability and insulation for your home.
Built with tough steel panels and your choice of insulation for lasting strength and a quiet, solid feel every time you open the door.
Personalize your look with flush or grooved panels, dozens of paint colors, and rich Ultra-Grain® or Ultra-Grain Plank wood-look finishes. Go bold with Lustra™ matte for a true modern look.
Add a touch of light your way—choose from short, long, or slim contemporary windows, stacked vertically or arranged just how you like.
Insulation choices include energy-efficient Intellicore® polyurethane or polystyrene, with R-values up to 18.4 for comfort and savings in any climate.
WindCode® reinforcement is available for homes in high-wind areas, giving you extra peace of mind.
Clopay doors are compliant with environmental laws and regulations. Clopay doors do not contain HFCs. All Clopay doors are compliant with:
Every Modern Steel™ garage door is engineered to deliver years of performance with minimal maintenance. The door’s multi-layer steel construction comes in your choice of 1, 2, or 3-layer builds, so you can find the right fit for your needs and budget. Choose from Intellicore® polyurethane or classic polystyrene insulation. Both options boost energy efficiency, make the door feel sturdy and solid, and help keep your garage quieter.
Durability is built right in. The steel panels are protected by a multi-layer rust-prevention system: hot-dipped galvanizing, metal oxide pretreatment, and a baked-on primer and topcoat all work together to keep the door looking great, year after year. A replaceable vinyl bottom seal in a rust-resistant aluminum retainer blocks out drafts and water, while Clopay’s patented Safe-T-Bracket® adds peace of mind with a unique safety design.
Standard features like heavy-duty 14-gauge steel hinges, smooth 10-ball nylon rollers, and removable window grilles make maintenance easy and performance reliable. Modern Steel™ doors also meet strict air infiltration standards, so you get comfort and efficiency without compromise.
Modern Steel™ garage doors make it easy to find a look that fits your home. You can choose from flush or grooved panel designs—flush panels give a sleek, minimalist look, while grooved panels add subtle lines for added dimension.
You then get to choose a signature finish like Ultra-Grain® for a warm wood look, Ultra-Grain Plank for texture, or Lustra™ matte for a prominent, modern statement. You can also customize with a range of window shapes and placements—from long, horizontal panes to slim, vertical accents—so your garage door feels like a natural extension of your home’s design. With so many ways to mix and match panels, windows, and finishes, you’ll find a combination that feels uniquely yours.

Personalize your Modern Steel™ garage door with a variety of specialty glass choices, each designed to balance light and privacy. Choose clear glass for an open feel that lets in plenty of sunlight. For more privacy, frosted and obscure glass both blur the view into your garage while still allowing light to filter through.
If you want something extra unique, consider rain and narrow reed glass. Each adds subtle texture and visual interest. Or really give it some drama with Midnight Gray glass which gives a cool-yet-mysterious look with added privacy.
Just remember, not every glass option is available on every model, so be sure to check with your Clopay dealer about which styles fit your chosen design.

Modern Steel™ garage doors come in a wide palette of colors and finishes. Classic choices like Standard White, Almond, Sandtone, Chocolate, and Desert Tan work beautifully with almost any exterior. For a more distinctive look, try deeper hues like Bronze, Mocha Brown, Hunter Green, or Charcoal.
There are also premium finishes like Black and Iron Ore that can bring a vivid contrast to any exterior. For something really different, try one of the Lustra™ matte options (Black, Charcoal, Silver) for an unexpected, textured look. If you love the warmth of wood but want easy maintenance, Ultra-Grain® and Ultra-Grain Plank finishes offer the authentic look of cypress, walnut, cherry, barnwood, cedar, and more, each with realistic grain detail.
With so many standard and premium options—including custom Color Blast® shades by request—you won’t have any trouble finding the right color for your Modern Steel™ garage door.

Modern Steel™ garage doors complement contemporary and mid-century modern home styles. Doors are available with or without windows and with or without grooves in the panels. All are available in multiple paint, Ultra-Grain® and Lustra™ finishes to create the perfect look for your home.
Clopay’s Ultra-Grain® finish delivers the best of both worlds: the realistic look of natural wood with the low maintenance and energy efficiency benefits of insulated steel. But unlike real wood, it’s UV-resistant and impervious to moisture, so it won’t fade, rot, split, shrink or crack, saving you and the environment material, energy and resources necessary to maintain or replace door components.
A garage door can represent as much as 30% of your home’s front façade, which makes choosing the right design especially important — and Clopay has the widest selection available.
Installation instructions for our residential insulated steel garage doors
Installation Instructions for Residential Garage Doors
All of our Elite, Authorized, Master Authorized and Advanced Authorized Dealers offer a minimum 1 Year installation warranty on Clopay replacement doors.
Spray surface thoroughly with an ammonium chloride household cleaner (such as Lysol®), scrub using a soft bristle brush and rinse with clean water. DO NOT use paper towel or microfiber cloth, as residue may be left behind after cleaning.
Care and MaintenanceIf you own a contemporary or mid-century modern home, the Modern Steel™ garage door is a natural fit. Its clean lines, minimalist panels, and sleek finishes pair beautifully with the geometric shapes and large windows often found in these architectural designs. Homes with the bold angles of a mid-century modern build or an uncluttered contemporary look both benefit from the Modern Steel™ door’s blend of form and function. The flexible design also works for some transitional homes that lean modern, especially when you customize with unique finishes or window layouts. For homeowners seeking a simple way to elevate curb appeal while staying true to their home’s style, this door is the ideal choice for modern exteriors that value sophistication and simplicity in equal measure.
I love our new grage doors. They look great since the first thing you see is the garage. They are black and the color is baked on so we will not have to paint them!

I'm generally happy with these doors, just have one concern... The internal support stiffeners (presumably for high wind loads) have numerous fasteners loose and a few have already fallen out. It appears that they were over-torqued during installation and stripped out the thin gauge metal. I'm not sure how I can correct this, still assessing options, but wish this was not necessary on brand new doors.

I went with the Modern steel door with insulation. The door looks great and is much quieter than my old door. The styling is great and storm protection provides a good peice of mind entering Hurricane Season.
