Our History

Story of Tip Top Doors

Every business has a story—and ours is built on passion, quality, and trust. Tip Top Doors started as a small, family-run garage door company, driven by a simple goal: to bring better garage door solutions to homes and businesses throughout Chicago and its suburbs.

From the very beginning, we knew that great service and dependable products were the keys to lasting success. Over time, that focus helped us grow into one of the most trusted garage door experts in the region.

How We Started

What began with a few local installations has expanded into a company known for high-quality European and American garage doors. As our team and service areas grew, so did our commitment to innovation. Today, we work with top-tier brands like Hörmann, Clopay, Amarr, and Wiśniowski to bring clients premium garage door options that combine beauty and function.

We’ve completed hundreds of successful installations, partnered with contractors and architects, and served both residential and commercial clients across the greater Chicago area.

What Makes Us Different

At Tip Top Doors, we’re not just installing doors—we’re helping people improve their homes, protect their businesses, and express their style. We’re proud of our expert team, detailed craftsmanship, and personal approach to every project.

Our clients trust us because we take the time to understand their needs. Whether it’s a high-end custom European door or a reliable sectional model for everyday use, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

At Tip Top Doors, we know that every home tells a story — and that story often begins with the front of the house. That’s why we’re proud to offer garage door installation and sales in the communities we know best.

Whether it’s a modern new build in Winnetka or a historic residence in Lake Forest, our team delivers clean, professional installation with doors that fit perfectly. We’ve helped families in Hinsdale upgrade their curb appeal, and we've installed sleek, European-style doors for homeowners in Wilmette and Kenilworth looking for a refined finish.

In Oak Brook and Glencoe, we’re often called for high-end custom garage solutions. Meanwhile, homes in Burr Ridge and Naperville benefit from our energy-efficient options that keep warmth in and weather out. We also serve large properties in Barrington and Barrington Hills, where strong, secure garage doors are a must.

From elegant estates in River Forest and Western Springs to quiet cul-de-sacs in Lincolnshire and Northbrook, Tip Top Doors is trusted for both style and service. We’ve installed doors in Clarendon Hills that match traditional brick homes and helped homeowners in Highland Park embrace modern design.

Coastal charm meets durable design in Lake Bluff, while garages in Deerfield and Elmhurst get a performance upgrade with smart systems and insulated panels. Our reach extends to growing suburbs like South Barrington, rustic areas like Long Grove, and estate-filled neighborhoods like Inverness.

In Glenview, we’ve worked on everything from single-family homes to new constructions — and in Wheaton, we’re helping families enhance both beauty and function with every garage door we install.

No matter the neighborhood, Tip Top Doors is your local garage door expert — right where you need us.
