Prelude 2
Vinyl Garage Door
Prelude 2, our affordable vinyl garage door, simulates the look of traditional, carriage house-style garage doors, but it’s actually made from easy-to-maintain cellular vinyl. That means it’s naturally moisture-, weather-, insect-, and rot-resistant for an extended lifespan.
Why Choose Prelude 2?
- Built on an insulated steel core frame for strength and long-lasting performance.
- Attractive, low-maintenance vinyl garage door with the design flexibility to complement any home.

- Bright white interior door surface is a great addition to any garage or workspace.
- Lightweight product that reduces strain on door hardware, springs, and automatic openers.
- Standard and custom sizes available to fit new construction or your remodeling needs.
What It’s Made Of
The Prelude 2 series combines a double-sided steel core frame with a cellular vinyl face that’s adorned with beveled edge trim, panel, and window details. Unfold each section of the menu below to learn more about available upgrades.
- Can be left unfinished or painted in light colors with a light reflectance value (LRV) higher than 60.
- Vinyl gets very hot and retains heat with sun exposure, which can create problems for darker paint colors.

Prelude 2 is an unfinished, white cellular PVC door and doesn’t need to be painted. Our Tricoya® composite upgrade comes primed, but we recommend factory-finishing it. You can learn more about your finish options below.
