Size Guide
Make Sure You Choose the Right Garage Door Size (WxH)
Before installing your cover, make sure you’ve selected the correct size based on your actual garage door, not the trim or frame.
Example: If your door measures 9 ft wide by 8 ft tall, select the 9x8 ft option — even though the banner will be slightly smaller to fit the visible panel area cleanly.
Common Garage Door Sizes:
- Single Garage: 8x7 ft or 9x8 ft
- Double Garage: 16x7 ft or 16x8 ft
If you’re between sizes by only a few inches, go slightly smaller for width to keep it snug without bunching, and slightly taller for height (by 2–3 inches) so you can place the velcro higher or on the top edge of the door. It might leave some gaps on the edges, which is not a big deal- people do this all the time.
Please note that the mentioned sizes in dropdowns are door sizes and not cover sizes. The covers are made slightly smaller than the door size for a better fit and look. There might be some space left on the edges. They are sized for all kinds of doors, including the ones with weather strips, so they will not fit all doors the same- they might be a bit smaller for some and slightly larger for others. The cover measurements can vary depending on whether they're taken after stretching the cover properly or not. So, please allow for minor variation.
Measure your door from inside your garage with the door fully closed.
Width (W): From the left edge to the right edge of the actual garage door panel
Height (H): From the ground up to the top edge of the panel
Do not include side trim, weatherstripping, or the wall frame.

Homeowners everywhere trust GarageBuddy for quality that lasts, installs that are easy, and designs that turn heads. Real garages. Real results.
I'm 74 and I installed my Nativity Scene cover myself in one afternoon. Neighbors loved it.
My 14-year-old and I put the Zombie cover on in a little more than one commercial break. Not kidding.
Our HOA actually emailed us a compliment about the American Flag banner. That has NEVER happened before. lol
Watched the YouTube video once, had the Santa's Garage up in 12 minutes. We are amazed at how easy it is.
We spent $400 on Halloween decorations last year. This $79 cover got more compliments than all of them combined.
I own six Garagebuddies now. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine's, Easter, and July 4th. Love them all.
Put up the Bald Eagle banner for the 4th and my neighbor who is a veteran shook my hand. That moment alone was worth it.
Put the Creepy Clown up and my neighbor's kid refused to walk past our house lol. Mission accomplished.
Took longer to find my step stool than it did to install the whole thing
Bought it on a whim during a late night scroll. Best impulse purchase I've made in years.

I'm not handy at all. Put the 16ft Cursed Pumpkin cover up by myself in 20 minutes. Couldn't believe it.
Three neighbors knocked on our door the same weekend, asking where we got our Clown from. I felt famous.
The UPS driver stopped and took a photo of our Peeking Clown door. That's when I knew we made the right call.
We had a brutal Alberta winter, ice storms, -30°C. The Winter Wonderland cover didn't move an inch.
Canceled my annual wreath subscription after getting the Christmas Elf cover. Better quality, fraction of the cost.
The glow in the dark skeleton Boogie bones cover is genuinely mindblowing at night. It's a neighborhood hit!
Our street does a Halloween decorating contest every year. Our Peeking clown got us the first place this year. Yay!!
Honestly thought it was a gimmick. Put up the Peeking clown. Now we're the most popular house on the street.
We do a big Halloween block party every year. Haunted House cover is now the official backdrop for all photos.
Saw it on Facebook and thought 'that can't look that good in real life.' It looks better
