Hollywood Crawford
“Open Sesame! It’s me…I’m home.”
And, if I’m lucky, the portal to my sanctuary
will open. After all…I’ve spent good money
to have my dream home and expect everything
to work properly and at my convenience!
Enter HollywoodCrawford!
For over 60 years, the
HollywoodCrawford Door Company has
been an authorized representative/supplier
of top quality residential and commercial
garage doors and openers to San Antonians.
Their inventory of resources is as exceptional
as their technicians are superb in their
expertise!
The HollywoodCrawford approach
to business is to key in on customer needs
and wants, and to ensure customer satisfaction
with every aspect of the project from
start to finish. No detail is left unnoticed and
the company prides itself on providing the
best service possible, starting with free estimates,
warranties, and extending to workmanship,
premium safety features and
prompt service should something unforeseen
go awry.
Wayne-Dalton, Clopay, Amarr,
Raynor and Mid-America are among the
numerous famous name resources that are
associated with HollywoodCrawford. And,
as a garage door is usually the largest moving
object in ones’ home, having the convenience
of an electric garage door opener
from such well-known companies as Genie,
Wayne-Dalton Lift-Master, Marantec and
Linear, is “a must.”
One “neat” feature of visiting the
company’s website at www.hollywoodcrawford.com
is the Wayne-Dalton Door
Design Center – which allows one to visualize
how their home will look with the style,
color and design of the product they have
chosen, before purchase. Having “curb
appeal” is a major factor in the marketability/valuation
of ones’ home, and being able
to see the finished product and cost is critical.
When it comes to selecting a garage
door for either home or commercial buildings,
one important matter to determine
what type of materials is your door made
of? Is wood more practical than metal? Is
insulation necessary? Other questions that
should be addressed include: does the direction
that your garage faces factor into the
number and size of windows the doors contain?
If you opt for windows in your door,

ask yourself if they will clash with the style
and direction of those in the main structure
itself? And then, there’s the question of
ease-of-operation, spring design (are the
springs enclosed or exposed), safety and
noise factors to consider with the installation
of your door opener.
For customers desiring something a
little different, the FrenchPorte doors sport
virtually unbreakable, translucent, frosted
glass panes crafted from polycarbonate, and
are available in three virtually maintenancefree
models in a variety of standard sizes.
The company also provides custom wood
and carriage-style doors that can be
designed to enhance the look of any home.
Not only can HollywoodCrawford’s
garage doors enhance the curb appeal of
your home they can also help increase the
market value of your home. Better looking
garage doors can increase the value of the
home by 1% to 4% according to a 2006 survey
of real estate professionals. On a
$200,000 home, that’s $2,000 to $8,000. In
another survey done by Jeld-Wen this year,
when real estate professionals were shown
the same home with updated entry and
garage doors, they estimated the property to
be worth an additional $16,000! Therefore,
you could come to the logical conclusion
that investing in an upscale garage door is
like getting a free garage door and will pay
for itself several times over.
From variety to quality, residential to
commercial clientele, HollywoodCrawford
has forged a reputation as an industry leader.
It is a charter member of the International
Door Association – an organization of
garage door dealers and suppliers – and,

through that affiliation, the company can
avail itself of resources to enhance its technical
proficiency, management and customer
relations. Hollywood Crawford is
also a member of the Greater San Antonio
Builders Association and the only garage
door dealer in San Antonio accredited by the
Institute of Dealer Education and
Accreditation (IDEA).
At the HollywoodCrawford door
company, “open sesame” takes on added
meaning. After all - where else can you find
such a marvelous collection of design,
material and service options at your fingertips
- each designed to welcome you home.
