Amarr Carriage House Steel Garage Door
Hillcrest
Carriage House
Value-priced carriage-house steel - hundreds of design combinations for Mesa and Queen Creek homeowners who want a fresh look without stretching the budget.
Best for: Mesa, Queen Creek, and Chandler homeowners buying a carriage-house look at Amarr's value tier — hundreds of design combinations.
About the Hillcrest
Install an Amarr Hillcrest in Gilbert or buy one across the Phoenix metro — Hillcrest is Amarr's value-priced carriage-house line, the collection Farnsworth's install team recommends when a Gilbert, Mesa, or Queen Creek homeowner wants a fresh carriage look without stepping up to the premium tier. It's the door we quote most for Power Ranch, Cooper Commons, and Superstition Ranch replacements where the budget is real but the curb appeal still matters. Three stamped panel styles (Bead Board, Recessed, and Long Bead Board) combined with 12 factory paint colors, 11 DecraTrim window inserts, five DecraGlass designs, and Amarr Color Zone's 800+ Sherwin-Williams matches produce hundreds of design combinations. It's genuinely versatile.
Construction is single, double, or triple-layer, with optional 1-3/8" or 2" polystyrene insulation for insulated door R-values from 6.48 to 9.05. WindPro reinforcement is available for monsoon wind loads where local code calls for it, and the Quiet Door option reduces operating noise by up to 38 percent. The top-tier HI3000 build carries Lifetime sections + hardware + springs (paint is 3-year at that tier), and the double-layer HI2000 steps paint up to a 25-Year single-family warranty.
As a local Amarr dealer, Farnsworth Garage handles the quote, order, install, and warranty registration for Hillcrest across Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Queen Creek, and the greater Phoenix area. If you're weighing the carriage look but the budget is tight, this is one of the first collections we bring up on the walk-through. Give us a call and we'll put a straight quote together with no pressure. If you want the same value tier but with clean traditional stamps instead of carriage detailing, see our Lincoln page.

Warranty
Every Amarr Hillcrest ships with the Amarr Consolidated Residential Warranty. Here’s what’s covered — and for how long — on the top-insulation HI3000 / HI3138 build (triple-layer).
- Panel sections
- Functional hardware
- Springs
- DecraGlass inserts
- DecraTrim inserts
- Window frames
- Laminated glass
- Paint finish
- Insulated glass
Coverage shown is the HI3000 / HI3138 top-insulation (triple-layer) build. HI2000 (double-layer) trades some insulation for a 25-year paint finish (single-family) with 2-year window coverage. HI1000 (single-layer) carries 15-year paint / 1-year windows. All Hillcrest builds keep Lifetime sections, hardware, and springs.
Non-factory paint voids the paint finish warranty. Insulated glass installed in high-moisture environments voids the insulated glass warranty.
Warranty terms change over time. Riley’s team can print the current version of your specific warranty for your files at install.
Installing Your Amarr Hillcrest in Gilbert & the Phoenix Metro
Why Farnsworth is Your Local Amarr Installer
Farnsworth Garage Door Service is an active local Amarr dealer serving Mesa and the greater Phoenix area, and every install is handled by our in-house install team — not sub-contracted out. We carry Arizona ROC license #351810 and full commercial insurance, and our office answers the phone locally — no call-center runaround, no offshore booking system.
Because we install Amarr doors as our day job, our team knows the quirks of every collection — the exact WindPro spec new Queen Creek and Maricopa builds require, the right insulation tier for a west-facing Scottsdale garage, which decorative hardware clears a low-headroom opening. When you buy an Amarr door from Farnsworth, you get a local installer who has installed the same collection dozens of times.
How the Install Works
-
Free in-home consultation
A Farnsworth installer comes to your home with physical color samples, walks the opening, and hands you a written quote — no obligation, no pressure.
-
Precise measurement
We measure the width, height, headroom, and side-room of your existing opening to spec the exact door build for your home — no surprises on install day.
-
Removal & haul-away of your old door
On install day our team removes your old door, cleans up the driveway, and hauls the old sections away. It's always included in the written quote — never a separate line item.
-
New Amarr door installation
Farnsworth's in-house install team sets your new Amarr Hillcrest — track, torsion, panels, opener drawback, and safety-sensor alignment. No sub-contractors.
-
Final tuning & walkthrough
Balance check, tension set, and a walkthrough of how your new door and opener work — remote, keypad, safety reverse, and manual release.
After the Install
Farnsworth doesn't disappear after install day. If something needs adjusting — a track alignment, a rattle, an opener travel-limit tweak — give us a call and we come back out. We offer courtesy tune-ups to keep the door running quietly, and we handle warranty service for both the Amarr door itself and the install workmanship. If a part needs replacing under warranty, we coordinate the claim with Amarr for you.
That's the "buy with confidence" side of buying from a local dealer instead of a national chain: one number to call for service, one team that knows your install, one relationship. Most of our Amarr installs turn into repeat customers — opener replacements, second-door installs, and the referrals that follow.
Farnsworth installs Amarr Amarr Hillcrest across the Phoenix metro: Mesa (home base), Scottsdale, Chandler, Gilbert, Queen Creek, Tempe, Phoenix, Fountain Hills, Apache Junction, Gold Canyon, San Tan Valley, Maricopa, and Guadalupe.
Common Amarr Hillcrest Configurations
Most of the Amarr Hillcrest installs we do across Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, Tempe, and the wider Phoenix area fall into one of these two openings. Yours might be different — we measure at the free in-home consultation and quote the exact size for your home.
Two-car Hillcrest install
Approx. 16' wide × 7' or 8' tall
The single 16-foot two-car door is the most common configuration on Phoenix-area homes. On a two-car Hillcrest, we recommend the Intellicore polyurethane build for better summer performance for any attached garage — the extra insulation makes a real difference on the wall the garage shares with your bedroom or living room. Hillcrest short-raised-panel styling scales cleanly across the wider opening, and you can dial in the exact color and window layout and glass style (Clear, Frost, Tinted, or DecraGlass) that matches your home. Two-car openings are also the sweet spot for the WindPro reinforcement upgrade — the added bracing costs less on a single wide door than doubling it up across two smaller openings.
One-car Hillcrest install
Approx. 8' or 9' wide × 7' tall
Common on townhomes, casita conversions, and homes with a two-single-door layout instead of one wide door. For a one-car Hillcrest, the polystyrene-insulated Hillcrest build with a short-raised-panel look is the practical default — enough performance for an attached garage without paying for the top-tier build on a smaller door. Same Hillcrest short-raised-panel styling, same color palette, same warranty as the two-car version — just a narrower opening.
Replace, Upgrade, or New Construction
We install the Amarr Hillcrest across three scenarios most homeowners in the Phoenix area come to us for — whether you're replacing a door that's finally given up, upgrading from a builder-grade panel, or specifying doors on new construction.
Replace an aging door with the Amarr Hillcrest
Your existing door is 15-30 years old, the panels are dented or faded, the springs are cycling through their last thousand openings, and the annual repair calls are stacking up. We remove the old door, hardware, and tracks, install the new Amarr Hillcrest with all-new hardware, re-set the torsion springs to the correct IPPT for the door weight, program your existing opener (or install a new one), and haul the old door away the same day. Free written quote on the front end, local Amarr dealer relationship on the back end.
Upgrade to the Amarr Hillcrest
You're moving from an aging single-layer builder-grade door with obvious wear — stepping up to Hillcrest with the Intellicore polyurethane upgrade is the practical mid-market replacement for East Valley tract homes — you get real insulation and a fresh short-panel look at a sensible price point. Your upgrade path also includes the Intellicore polyurethane insulation upgrade (up to R-13.35 depending on collection) — the tier we specify most often on attached Phoenix-area garages because the thermal payback shows up on every July and August electric bill.
New construction Amarr Hillcrest
Building a new custom home or handling a major renovation? Amarr Hillcrest factory lead time is next-day install for our in-stock configurations, or roughly 1-4 weeks factory-direct for a specific color, window, or panel combination, so we build the order timing into your construction schedule. Rough-opening walkthrough before drywall, coordinated install once the door opening is dried in, and we work directly with builders and owners across Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, Tempe, and the wider Phoenix area.
How Much Does an Amarr Hillcrest Cost, and What Determines the Price?
Every Amarr Hillcrest we install in the Phoenix area is custom-configured to your specific home, so there isn't a single sticker price we can post that will actually match the door you end up with. What we can tell you is exactly what moves the number — six factors, in plain English, so you can walk into the conversation with your eyes open instead of guessing at online ranges from companies that have never seen your opening.
Rather than a generic range that won't match your home, we send a local Amarr dealer out to your driveway, measure your opening, walk you through the panel, insulation, color, window, and hardware choices, and hand you a written itemized quote. Free, no obligation, no pressure. Here are the six inputs we work through together.
The installed price on any Amarr Hillcrest in Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, Tempe, and the wider Phoenix area depends on the six factors below. We walk each one with you in person and put the result in writing.
Size
Door size
Single-car, double-car, and oversized openings each carry their own material and hardware footprint — the single biggest driver of installed price.
Insulation
Insulation tier
Single-, double-, or triple-layer construction. Higher tiers cost more up front and pay back all summer in cooler garages across Mesa, Phoenix, and Chandler.
Windows
Window options
The number of windows, glass style, and upgrades like Frost, Dark Tint, or DecraGlass insulation all shift the number on your quote.
Hardware
Decorative hardware
Optional handles, straps, and hinges dial up curb appeal — they're a la carte, so you only pay for the pieces you actually want on the door.
Wind Load
Wind-load reinforcement
Amarr's WindPro upgrade for Arizona monsoon straight-line winds, HOA architectural standards, or homeowners insurance requirements adds material to the build.
Included
Removal & haul-away
Farnsworth's written quote always includes removing your old door, cleaning up your driveway, and hauling the old sections away — not a separate line item.
HOA & architectural approval ready. Amarr's carriage-house designs are widely accepted in Arizona HOA communities — Silverleaf, DC Ranch, McDowell Mountain Ranch, Verde River, Val Vista Lakes, Power Ranch, Morrison Ranch, and more. Farnsworth handles your architectural review paperwork if your HOA requires it.
Storm-Rated for Arizona Monsoon Season
Amarr's WindPro reinforcement is available on the Amarr Hillcrest. Arizona monsoon straight-line winds through July, August, and September put unreinforced garage doors at real risk of blowing in or off track — and a blown-in door turns a small repair into a house-scale one. WindPro adds internal struts and reinforced hinges that raise the door's wind-load rating to meet Maricopa County building codes for the zones that require it — especially newer builds in Queen Creek, San Tan Valley, Maricopa, and along the I-10 monsoon corridor.
There's also an insurance angle worth checking. Many Arizona homeowners insurance carriers offer discounts for wind-load-rated garage doors — worth a call to your carrier before you finalize the build. Ask about WindPro when you request your free quote and Farnsworth's install team will confirm the exact spec your neighborhood requires.
Frequently Asked Questions
What style does the Hillcrest fit best?
The Hillcrest is a carriage-house steel door with the traditional plank look and cleaner grouped panels. It works well on transitional homes in Gilbert, Chandler, and Queen Creek where you want carriage-house character without the heavy Mediterranean detail.
Is the Hillcrest available with insulation?
Yes — single-, double-, and triple-layer construction, with insulated builds running from R-6.64 to R-13.35. The triple-layer polyurethane build is the option we usually recommend for attached Phoenix-area garages.
Can it be windrated for monsoon season?
Yes. Amarr's WindPro reinforcement is available on the Hillcrest where local building code requires it, or where a homeowner wants extra protection for open-lot builds in the East Valley and San Tan Valley.
Do I need to seal or refinish the paint?
No. The Hillcrest arrives from Amarr's factory with a baked-on 5-layer paint system — nothing to refinish, nothing to seal. That's a real advantage over real-wood carriage doors in Arizona sun.
Are you actually authorized to install and warranty Amarr doors?
Yes — we're a local Amarr dealer serving Mesa and the wider Phoenix metro. Our Farnsworth technicians install every door and file warranty claims with Amarr directly on your behalf for the life of the door.
How much does an Amarr Hillcrest cost to install in Arizona?
Every Amarr Hillcrest install is quoted after we see the door opening, so pricing depends on real specs — door size, whether you go single- or multi-layer construction, which carriage top-section style you pick, window and hardware upgrades, WindPro reinforcement, and haul-away of the old door. Farnsworth is a local Amarr dealer that quotes in writing so you can see every line item before you commit. Call (602) 935-9766 or request a free written quote for your specific home in Mesa, Queen Creek, or the greater Chandler area.
How long does Amarr Hillcrest installation take in Mesa?
Hillcrest is one of Amarr's most-stocked value lines, and a straightforward Mesa or Queen Creek build in a standard color installs the next day more often than not. Move to a custom paint match, WindPro reinforcement, or a nonstandard size and Amarr ships-to-order — typically 1–4 weeks depending on the option list. Farnsworth's install team locks the timeline into the written quote so nothing slips.
Can I finance an Amarr Hillcrest garage door in the Phoenix area?
Yes — Farnsworth's Amarr install team offers financing options for Hillcrest installs across Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, and the greater Phoenix area. Qualified applicants can spread the investment over monthly payments instead of paying up front, which helps when you're bundling a new door with an opener or hardware upgrade. Ask about our financing options when you request a quote.
Does the Amarr Hillcrest qualify for a homeowners insurance discount?
It varies by insurance carrier, but many Arizona homeowners insurers offer discounts on garage doors with wind-load-rated reinforcement — and the Amarr Hillcrest is available with WindPro reinforcement engineered for Mesa and Queen Creek monsoon straight-line winds. Ask your carrier whether their policy rewards wind-rated garage doors before you finalize the spec, and Farnsworth's local Amarr dealer team can print the WindPro compliance paperwork for your file. For an attached Phoenix-area garage, that annual premium savings can more than offset the reinforcement upgrade over the life of the door.
Which Amarr collection is best for Arizona sun and heat?
The Amarr Hillcrest is offered with real insulation — R-6.48 to R-9.05 depending on layer construction — so it's a solid heat-control pick for a Mesa or Queen Creek garage that shares walls with living space. For the absolute highest heat performance in Amarr's residential lineup, look at Olympus (up to R-19.40) or the top-tier Classica build (R-13.35 triple-layer polyurethane). Farnsworth's local Amarr dealer team will walk you through R-value versus budget on your free in-home quote.

Local Amarr dealer
Farnsworth is an active local Amarr dealer serving Mesa and the greater Phoenix area. Every Amarr door we install is ordered factory-direct through our dealer account — no third-party distributor, no rotating retailer, no sub-contracted install crew.
Multi-brand dealer
We're dealers for Clopay, Amarr, and Invicta — three of the top residential garage door manufacturers in North America. That means we recommend the door that actually fits your home, not the one brand we're forced to push. If a different manufacturer is the better call for your project, we'll tell you.
Free written quote, no pressure
Every Amarr consultation is free. We measure your opening, bring physical color samples out to your home so you can hold them against your stucco and trim in real Arizona light, and hand you a written itemized quote before you commit to anything.

Licensed, insured, background-checked
Arizona ROC-licensed (License #351810), fully insured, and every crew member is background-checked before they set foot on your driveway. Not the license number of a national franchise — our own name on the license, our own team on the truck.
