For modern glass garage doors in Orange County, Mulholland Brand builds its own. Its Glass Series garage door is black or white laminated glass in a fully welded aluminum frame, powder-coated inside and out. The door is a custom aluminum garage door built to your opening, designed, fabricated and installed by Mulholland's own crew. It is styled to pair with a matching driveway gate, so the garage door and the gate read as one design across the front of the house. Mulholland serves all of Orange County from its Canoga Park factory. If this is the look you want for your home, call Mulholland Brand to book an on-site measurement and get an itemized written quote.

Who builds modern glass garage doors instead of reselling a catalog door?
Mulholland Brand builds its own. We design and manufacture our garage doors in-house at our Canoga Park factory, from powder-coated aluminum, and our own W-2 employees install them. The door you approve is the door our team builds and puts in.
Our garage doors are custom aluminum doors in the same styles as our gates and fencing. They are powder-coated, rust-free and built to the opening, and our own crew designs, fabricates and installs them. You can see the range on our garage doors page.
For you, that means one team handles the whole job. We measure your opening, our factory builds the door and our crew installs it. If you are partway through a remodel and your architect or builder has drawn the new front of the house, we can fabricate to that drawing.
We've been operating since 1994. As of October 2026, we're rated 4.5 stars on average across more than 850 Google and Yelp reviews.
What glass does the Glass Series door use?
Black or white laminated glass, set in a fully welded aluminum frame that is powder-coated inside and out. You pick one of two glass colors, and we build the rest of the door around that choice.
What is laminated glass?
Laminated glass is glass made in layers. Sheets of glass are bonded together with an interlayer between them, and the result is a single panel. "Laminated" describes how the glass is put together. It is a construction term, not a color or a style. On the Glass Series door, that laminated glass comes in black or white.
Why two colors make the decision easier
Shopping for a glass door can mean scrolling through long charts of colors and finishes, with little help on what suits your house. Two colors turn all of that into one design question: does your facade want a dark door or a pale one? You can answer it standing at the curb.
Black or white glass: which one suits my house?
Choose by contrast with the walls around the door. Black glass stands out against white stucco and pale contemporary exteriors. White glass sits well against darker or warmer facades. Either way, we finish the door to match the rest of your home.
When black glass is the better fit
Black glass works as a deliberate contrast. On a white or cream stucco house, a smooth plaster contemporary or a pale stone facade, a black glass door reads as one bold, graphic shape, much like a large window on a modern elevation. It also suits houses that already use black as an accent: black window frames, a black front door, black house numbers or black railings. When the garage door repeats that accent, the front of the house looks planned rather than pieced together.
When white glass is the better fit
White glass suits houses whose walls are already dark or warm. Against charcoal or black siding, deep-toned stucco, or warm sand and terracotta colors, a white glass door gives a crisp, pale panel that keeps a large door from looking heavy. It also suits homes where white is the accent, with white trim, fascia or window frames.
A simple way to decide
Take a daytime photo of your house from the street, straight on. On many homes the garage door is one of the largest surfaces facing the street. Look at the photo and ask which color that surface should be next to everything else in the frame: the walls, the roof edge, the windows and the front door. Then browse our inspiration gallery for photos of finished fronts. Still torn? Bring the question to your on-site measurement and we'll talk it through with the house in front of us.
What do "fully welded" and "powder-coated inside and out" mean for me?
Fully welded means the aluminum frame of the Glass Series door is joined by welding at its joints, across the whole frame. Powder-coated inside and out means the finish covers both faces of that frame: the side the street sees and the side you see from inside the garage.
The inside face counts too
Most people judge a garage door from the driveway. But in most households the garage gets used every day: it is where you park, walk into the house, store the bikes or set up a workbench. You see the back of the door every time you pass through. On the Glass Series door, the garage-side face of the frame is powder-coated as well, so the side you live with every day is finished, not just the side your neighbors see.
Rust-free aluminum
Our garage doors are powder-coated, rust-free aluminum, the same powder-coated aluminum we design and manufacture all our products from in-house. In a county where many homes sit near the coast and many others sit inland, you get the same door either way: powder-coated, rust-free aluminum, finished to match the rest of your home.
Is the door built to my opening or a stock size?
Built to your opening. We custom-measure each property on site and custom-build to fit, so your Glass Series door is made for the opening in your house.
That matters most on remodeled and contemporary homes, where modern glass garage doors are often part of a new facade and the garage opening may have changed along with it. You are not picking from a list of standard sizes. We fabricate the door to the measurement we take at your home, or to your architect's or builder's drawing if the front of the house is still being designed.
Can the garage door match my driveway gate?
Yes. Our garage doors come in the same styles as our gates and fencing, and each garage door style is paired with a matching driveway gate style. You can plan the door and the gate as one design across the front of the house.
On a contemporary home, the garage door and the driveway gate are often the two largest pieces on the front elevation. Chosen separately, they can end up as two near-matches that never quite agree. Planning them together from the start avoids that.
Our aluminum driveway gates come in slatted, solid privacy, glass, wood-look, laser-cut and spear-top picket styles, and several series offer matching walk gates and fencing. Our gates and fences include a Glass style, the natural one to look at alongside a glass garage door. You can also compare our full range of gate and fence styles.
We serve all of Orange County, including Irvine, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Huntington Beach, Anaheim and Fullerton, and we can design a matching front-yard fence, walk gate and driveway gate as one project. If you're thinking about the whole front of the house, our guide to Orange County front-yard fence and gate quotes covers that side of the project.
Does my HOA need to approve the door first?
Check before you order. Many planned communities review changes to garage door style and color before work starts, so read your association's rules before you commit to a design.
In Orange County, many homes sit in planned communities with an association, and its architectural guidelines may cover the garage door as well as paint, gates and fences. A few steps keep the project on track:
- Find the architectural guidelines or design standards, and look for anything that covers garage doors, glass and exterior colors.
- Check whether you need to file a written application before any exterior work, and what it has to include.
- Ask how long a review usually takes, so you can plan your order around it.
- Gather what a reviewer will want to see: a photo of the front of your house, the glass color you've chosen (black or white) and a description of the door.
Your itemized written quote describes the exact configuration, so keep it on hand while you fill in the application.
How do I get a price?
Book an on-site measurement. Our quotes follow the measurement and are given as an itemized written price for the exact configuration, so the price you see is for your door, built to your opening.
Because every door is built to fit, a price only makes sense once the opening is measured and the choices are made. Here is how it works:
- Call us to book an on-site measurement at your home.
- At the measurement, we custom-measure your opening, and we talk through black or white glass and how the door will be finished to match the house.
- You receive an itemized written price for the exact configuration. If you want a matching driveway gate, front fence or walk gate, we can plan it as part of the same project.
- We design and manufacture the door in-house at our Canoga Park factory.
- Our own W-2 employees install it.
