Choose from three tones: ![Smoked Ebony Invicta garage door color swatch](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/colors/smoked-ebony.opt.webp) ### Smoked Ebony Deep, dramatic dark-wood tone — pairs beautifully with stucco and dark trim ![Spiced Sienna Invicta garage door color swatch](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/colors/spiced-sienna.opt.webp) ### Spiced Sienna Rich warm mid-tone with orange undertones — classic wood-door feel ![Whiskey Blonde Invicta garage door color swatch](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/colors/whiskey-blonde.opt.webp) ### Whiskey Blonde Light, sandy blonde tone — bright and modern against desert landscaping Novus doors ship in these three finishes only. Swatches shown are extracted from Invicta's official sell sheet — the actual finish may look slightly different in your driveway light. The finish you pick is written on your quote before anything is ordered. ## Window inserts & glass options The Novus (Model N18) can be configured with the following window insert designs and glass finishes — straight from Invicta's factory catalog for this specific door. ### Short window inserts Compact window designs sized to a single door panel — subtle curb appeal without dominating the door face. ![Plain short window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/plain.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Plain Simple rectangular pane — clean and understated ![Stockton short window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/stockton.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Stockton Divided-lite grid — classic residential look ![Cascade short window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/cascade.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Cascade Elegant curved-lite pattern ![Waterton short window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/waterton.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Waterton Sunburst-inspired arched detail ![Stockbridge short window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/stockbridge.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Stockbridge Craftsman-style angled panes ![Prairie short window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/prairie.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Prairie Frank-Lloyd-Wright-inspired border pattern ### Long window inserts Elongated window designs that span the full width of a panel — more architectural presence and more natural light. ![2 Piece Arched Stockbridge long window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/long-2pc-arched-stockbridge.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### 2 Piece Arched Stockbridge Wide arched top with craftsman detailing ![2 Piece Arched Stockton long window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/long-2pc-arched-stockton.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### 2 Piece Arched Stockton Wide arched top with divided-lite grid ![Cascade long window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/long-cascade.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Cascade Elongated curved-lite pattern ![Prairie long window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/long-prairie.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Prairie Elongated Prairie-style border ![Straight Stockbridge long window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/long-straight-stockbridge.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Straight Stockbridge Straight craftsman-style row ![Stockton 4 Square long window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/long-stockton-4-square.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Stockton 4 Square 4-pane divided-lite panel ![Stockton 8 Square long window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/long-stockton-8-square.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Stockton 8 Square 8-pane divided-lite panel — most windows for the most light ![Plain long window insert design](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/inserts/long-plain.svg?ver=1.36.2) #### Plain Wide plain-rectangle pane ### The 4 glass finishes Invicta offers four glass finishes across every window insert style.

Maximum natural light in the garage. ![Invicta logo viewed through Obscured glass finish](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/glass/obscured.opt.webp) #### Obscured Textured pattern — the logo becomes a soft, blurred shape. Privacy while letting light through. ![Invicta logo viewed through Acid Etched glass finish](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/glass/acid-etched.opt.webp) #### Acid Etched Uniformly frosted — the logo is barely visible as a faint outline. The most privacy, softest light. ![Invicta logo viewed through Grey Tinted glass finish](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/glass/grey-tinted.png?ver=1.36.2) #### Grey Tinted Grey-tinted transparency — the logo is still visible but muted.

Recommended for doors within reach of the driveway. **Insulated glass** Double-pane sealed unit — reduces heat transfer through the window. Worth considering for attached garages in Arizona sun. ## Novus N18 — Flush Panel, Triple-Layered, Insulated The **Model Novus N18 — flush panel, triple-layered, insulated** garage door has exceptional thermal insulation (R-Value) and sound barrier. This triple-layered garage door is made with polystyrene (foam) insulation sandwiched between two pieces of 27-gauge sheet metal. It is ideal for garages used year round as a shop or living area, or in geographic areas with high or low-temperature ranges, or with garages that have bedrooms directly above them. With an exceptional thermal insulation value, the Invicta **Model N18** offers unmatched comfort in your home. Best option for AZ 27 Gauge • Sandwich Style • Polystyrene ![Novus N18 cutaway diagram — sandwich panels, polystyrene insulation, stiles, aluminum retainer, and bottom seal](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/plugins/farnsworth-clopay/assets/img/invicta-novus-n18-model.opt.webp) ### Novus N18 Construction The Novus line is built exclusively at the top-tier N18 spec — no lower construction is available. **Best for:** Any Arizona home where you want the premium wood-tone aesthetic AND the highest thermal performance / quietest operation Invicta offers. There is no lower Novus tier — this is the line. Want to see how the Novus compares to the standard Series lineup? Ask us — we'll walk you through both at your free in-home quote. Coverage you can count on ## Backed by Invicta's manufacturer warranty Every Novus (Model N18) we install ships with Invicta's full residential warranty — real coverage on the finish that holds up in Arizona sun, and on the mechanical parts that do the heavy work every day. ### Paint finish warranty Covers material manufacturing defects and workmanship: splitting, cracking, peeling, and rusting on the exterior finish. - Novus N18 (all Novus doors) 25 years ### Workmanship / hardware & springs Covers all functional hardware (hinges, rollers, track) and the springs — the parts that actually do the work every time your door cycles. 3 years From the date of purchase — applies to every tier equally. **Register within 90 days.** Warranty applies once you register your door with Invicta within 90 days of installation. Farnsworth handles the registration paperwork as part of the install so you never miss it. **Glass & window inserts.** Glass and window inserts follow the original glass manufacturer's warranty, which Invicta transfers to you at purchase. **HOA & architectural review ready.** Invicta's flush-panel Series 300, short-carriage Series 400, and long-carriage Series 500 sail through Arizona HOA architectural review committees — Silverleaf, DC Ranch, McDowell Mountain Ranch, Val Vista Lakes, Power Ranch, Morrison Ranch, Ocotillo, and beyond. The 11 standard factory colors cover community-standard color rules on almost every East Valley and North Scottsdale HOA, and the Novus wood-tone line matches the "real stained wood" aesthetic that custom-home committees typically approve without a variance.

Every Invicta Novus (Model N18) 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 an authorized Invicta 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 Invicta Novus (Model N18) 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 on any Invicta door. Series ### Which Invicta series you pick Series 100 (short-raised) and 200 (long-raised) sit at the value end of the lineup. Series 300, 400, 500, and 600 are mid-tier steel with more architectural detail. Novus wood-tone panels are the premium tier. Insulation ### Insulation tier Non-insulated, polystyrene, or the premium 2-inch polyurethane sandwich construction — Invicta calls these Good, Better, and Best. Higher tiers cost more up front and pay back all summer in cooler garages and lower AC load. Windows ### Window inserts & glass finish Short and long rectangle window inserts, plus your glass finish choice (Clear, Grey Tinted, Acid Etched, or Obscure) — quoted separately from the base door so you only pay for the exact look you want on the door. Hardware ### Decorative hardware Optional handles, hinges, and strap kits dial up carriage-house curb appeal. A la carte — pick the pieces you want without buying an all-or-nothing package. Install ### Install complexity A straight swap into existing tracks is a one-day install. Adding new tracks, replacing the torsion system, or fitting an oversized opening adds material and time to the written quote.

We order your door direct from Invicta's factory, our own team measures, delivers, and installs it — no subcontractors — and we handle warranty support locally, so you deal with us instead of corporate. ### Authorized Invicta dealer Factory-direct ordering, faster lead times, and full manufacturer warranty protection — the kind of relationship you don't get from a big-box retailer or a national franchise. ### Installed by our team Every Invicta door we sell is installed by Farnsworth technicians. We don't subcontract to whoever's cheapest that week. One accountable team from first quote to final adjustment. ### Local warranty support If a section warps, a finish fades, or hardware fails inside the warranty window, we file the claim with Invicta on your behalf and coordinate the repair. You call us — not a manufacturer 1-800 line. ### Family-owned & Arizona local Farnsworth Garage Door Service is family-owned and lives in the same Phoenix-metro neighborhoods our customers do. We're not driving in from out of state to install and disappear. Why Arizona homeowners choose the Novus ## The Invicta Novus wood-tone garage door for Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, and North Phoenix The Invicta Novus is our top-selling premium garage door in the higher-end custom-home neighborhoods of Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, DC Ranch, Silverleaf, and Fountain Hills. Homeowners here want the warmth and character of a real wood carriage door — but they also know what unshielded Arizona sun does to real wood over ten summers: warping panels, splitting joints, faded stain, endless refinishing. The Novus solves that trade-off by baking a photorealistic wood-tone finish onto Invicta's top-tier insulated steel construction. You get the aesthetic of a $10,000 wood door with the durability, warranty, and thermal performance of a modern steel door. Every Novus is built to Invicta's Series 18 spec — 2-inch polyurethane sandwich construction, 27-gauge steel on both faces, R-value around 9.7. It's the quietest, most thermally efficient garage door Invicta makes. There is no lower Novus tier: if you order Novus, you get the premium tier by default. That means the doors we install for Paradise Valley custom builds and North Scottsdale contemporary homes are the same top-spec Invicta doors as the ones going into DC Ranch, Silverleaf, and Estancia — no cutting corners on the mechanical package to hit the wood-tone finish. Farnsworth Garage Door Service is your local authorized Invicta dealer for the Novus in Mesa, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Fountain Hills, and across the greater Phoenix metro. We order every Novus door direct from Invicta's factory, install with our in-house team (never subcontractors), and file any warranty claims on your behalf locally — so you never have to call Invicta corporate. Same-day installation once your door arrives at our Mesa shop is standard. The Novus ships in three wood tones — Smoked Ebony, Spiced Sienna, and Whiskey Blonde — and we'll walk you through all three at your free in-home quote so you can settle on the one that suits your stucco, trim, and roof line before you decide.

Yours might be different — we measure at the free in-home consultation and quote the exact size for your home. Most common ### Two-car Novus (Model N18) 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 Novus (Model N18), we recommend the **Best (2-inch polyurethane sandwich, N18)** tier for any attached garage — the extra insulation makes a real difference on the wall the garage shares with your bedroom or living room. The luxury integrated wood-tone flush panel styling scales cleanly across the wider opening, and you can dial in the exact color and window layout that matches your home. Townhomes & side entries ### One-car Novus (Model N18) 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 Novus (Model N18), the **Best (2-inch polyurethane sandwich, N18 — the only tier the Novus line is built at)** tier is the practical default — enough thermal performance for an attached garage without paying for the top-tier build on a smaller door. Same luxury integrated wood-tone flush panel styling, same color palette, same warranty as the two-car version — just a narrower opening. ## Replace, Upgrade, or New Construction We install the Invicta Novus (Model N18) 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 ### Replace an aging door with the Invicta Novus (Model N18) 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 Invicta Novus (Model N18) 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, factory-authorized dealer relationship on the back end. Upgrade ### Upgrade to the Invicta Novus (Model N18) You're moving from a real stained-wood door that the Arizona sun is finally winning against, or a stock steel door that no longer matches the intent of the home — moving to Novus (Model N18) gives you the depth and warmth of stained wood without the re-staining, re-sealing, and cracking that real wood in AZ sun demands. The integrated wood-tone finish is UV-stabilized and holds color for decades — and every Novus ships at the premium 2-inch sandwich construction tier as standard. Your upgrade path also includes stepping up on the Invicta Good/Better/Best insulation ladder — the **Best (2-inch polyurethane sandwich, N18)** tier is the one we specify most often on attached Phoenix-area garages because the thermal payback shows up on every July and August electric bill. New Construction ### New construction Invicta Novus (Model N18) Building a new custom home or handling a major renovation? Invicta manufactures every door to your exact spec at the factory, so we build the order timing into your construction schedule. Typical Invicta Novus (Model N18) factory lead time is about 6-8 weeks factory-direct because every Novus door is custom-configured to your wood tone (Smoked Ebony, Spiced Sienna, or Whiskey Blonde), so we place the order as soon as the framing dimensions are locked and hold delivery until the opening is dried in. Rough-opening walkthrough before drywall, coordinated install once the door opening is ready, and we work directly with builders and owners across Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, Tempe, and the wider Phoenix area.

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 Invicta doors as our day job, our team knows the quirks of every series — which insulation tier fits a west-facing Fountain Hills garage, when the Novus wood-tone finish is worth the premium over a stock color, which window insert clears a low-headroom opening. When you buy an Invicta door from Farnsworth, you get a local dealer who has installed the same series dozens of times across the Phoenix metro. Your Invicta timeline ## From free quote to installed door Here's exactly what happens between your first phone call and the day we're walking you through your new Novus (Model N18). No mystery, no surprises. STEP 1 ### Free in-home consultation Same-day or next day We come measure your opening, walk you through the panel styles, insulation tiers, colors, and window options, and give you a written quote. STEP 2 ### Approve & place factory order Same day as approval You approve the quote, we place the order direct with Invicta's factory the same day. No middlemen, no distributor markup. STEP 3 ### Manufacturing & delivery Built to order Your door is custom-built at Invicta's factory to the exact spec you approved — panel style, insulation tier, color, window options, hardware — then shipped to our Mesa shop. We'll walk you through the specific timing during your quote. STEP 4 ### Same-day install Single visit When your door arrives, we schedule a same-day install. Our team removes the old door, sets the new sections, tracks, and springs, programs your opener, and walks you through it. Every install is a little different — panel style, insulation tier, and color options all factor in. We'll walk you through exactly what to expect for your door during your free in-home quote. ### After the install Farnsworth doesn't disappear after install day. Every Invicta Novus (Model N18) we install carries Invicta's full residential warranty on paint finish, panel construction, hardware, and springs (per the collection-specific terms in the Warranty section above). As your authorized Invicta dealer, we file every warranty claim with Invicta on your behalf — you never have to sit on hold with the factory. If something needs adjusting outside a warranty claim — a rattle, a track alignment, an opener travel-limit tweak — give us a call and we come back out. That's the "buy with confidence" side of buying from a local authorized dealer instead of a national chain: one number to call for service, one team that knows your install, one relationship. Most of our Invicta installs turn into repeat customers — opener replacements, second-door installs, and the referrals that follow.

The Farnsworth family name has been part of the East Valley business community for 60+ years, so you're hiring people whose reputation actually lives in these neighborhoods. ### Authorized Invicta dealer Farnsworth is an authorized Invicta dealer for the Phoenix area. Every Invicta door we install is ordered factory-direct through our dealer account — no third-party distributor, no rotating retailer. That relationship also means we handle warranty claims with Invicta on your behalf instead of leaving you on hold with the factory. ### Multi-brand authorized dealer We're authorized 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 Invicta consultation is free. We measure your opening, walk the color and hardware options with you, and hand you a written itemized quote before you commit to anything. ### Own the whole workflow, end to end Measurement, factory order, install-day coordination, and after-install warranty support all live under our roof. The team that measures your opening is the team installing your door and the team you call if anything ever needs adjusting. No subcontractors, no rotating crews, no handoffs. ### We service what we install A garage door is a 20-year relationship, not a one-and-done sale. Farnsworth stays your service company for the life of the door — tune-ups, spring replacements, opener repairs, warranty claims. One number to call, one team that knows your install. ### 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. ### Same-day service across the Phoenix area Same schedule across all 13 cities we serve — Mesa (our home base), Gilbert, Chandler, Queen Creek, San Tan Valley, Scottsdale, Tempe, Phoenix, Fountain Hills, Gold Canyon, Apache Junction, Maricopa, and Guadalupe. Same-day scheduling is our standard for repair and consultation calls. Financing available ## Buy the garage door you actually want — not the one that fits this month’s cash on hand. Farnsworth offers flexible financing on every install and repair job over $500, across all four brands we carry — so you can pick the exact door, insulation tier, hardware, and windows you’d choose if budget wasn’t in the way.

Family was in a bind on a Sunday night . Torsion spring snapped. They were able to come over and repair. They were fair, efficient and very friendly. Would highly recommend and will use their services for future Garage Repairs. - **DeAnn Draper**Google review ★★★★★ We are so happy with the installation and quality of our new garage door but even more satisfied with the quality of service provided!! We were well taken care of from start to finish. I would recommend their product and services 100%!!! - **Melissa Mayes**Google review ★★★★★ Amazing service. Quick, responsive and honest. Highly recommend!!!! - **Holly Banks**Google review ★★★★★ Brigham got my broken spring fixed right away and did an awesome job! - **Tim Hackett**Google review ★★★★★ Great experience today with Brigham and Farnsworth. Garage Doors! Wife backed into and dented the bottom panel backing out of the garage before the door was fully open. Getting quotes and find since the door is 20 years old I can’t just replace the bottom panel. Brigham put a shoulder to the bend and straighted it, not perfect but better than it was, and added a couple of screw to keep things and place, for no charge! At some point will likely have to replace the door but this works for now! ## Spec sheets & downloads Official documentation from Invicta Door. - [Novus Sell Sheet PDF](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/novus-sell-sheet-novus-model-n18-Novus-Sell-Sheets.pdf) - [Invicta Residential Warranty PDF](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/invicta-residential-warranty-series-100-ResidentialWarranty.pdf) - [Invicta Residential Install Manual PDF](https://farnsworthgarage.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/invicta-residential-install-manual-series-100-ResidentialInstallManual.pdf) ## Frequently asked questions The questions Arizona homeowners ask us most when they're choosing a Novus (Model N18). ### Is the Novus (Model N18) actual wood, or is it steel with a wood-look finish? The Novus is a real insulated steel door with a highly detailed wood-tone finish baked onto the panels. You get the visual richness of a premium wood carriage door with none of the wood-door maintenance headaches — no refinishing, no warping in the sun, no termite worry, no annual re-staining. The steel underneath is the same top-tier polyurethane sandwich construction as our Series 18 doors, so it's also insulated, quiet, and dent-resistant. ### How does the wood-tone finish hold up in direct Arizona sun? The Novus finish is a baked-on UV-resistant coating, not a stain or paint. It holds up dramatically better in direct Arizona sun than real wood would, and it never needs re-sealing. If your door faces west or south and takes hard afternoon sun, the routine care is the same as any painted door: rinse it off with a garden hose every couple of months to knock off dust, and check the bottom weather seal once a year. ### Which Novus tone works best with stucco and tile-roof homes? The three tones each land in a different zone. Smoked Ebony is deep and dramatic — a great contrast piece against light stucco and dark trim. Spiced Sienna reads as a warm mid-tone wood — a natural fit for Spanish and Mediterranean architecture. Whiskey Blonde is the light, sandy tone — modern and bright against desert landscaping. We can walk through all three with you at your free quote appointment and note the one you pick on your written quote. ### Do the Novus wood tones fade over time? The finish is engineered specifically for exterior UV exposure and holds its color much longer than a real stained wood door would. Some very gradual mellowing is normal after many years of harsh Arizona sun, but you won't see the aggressive graying, checking, or splintering that untreated wood develops. The finish is covered under Invicta's manufacturer warranty against premature failure. ### Is the Novus available in the same custom widths and heights as the other Invicta doors? Yes — Novus is manufactured to fit the same range of residential openings as the standard Series lineup, including 8-foot, 9-foot, 10-foot, 16-foot, and 18-foot widths. If you have an unusually tall opening or a custom double-door setup, we'll verify Novus availability for your exact size when we measure at the quote. ### How does a Novus compare to a real wood carriage door? A real wood carriage door will always have more visual "life" up close — real grain, real depth, real material. But it comes with real problems in Arizona: warping from sun exposure, splitting from monsoon humidity swings, refinishing costs every few years, and much higher upfront cost. The Novus gives you 90% of the aesthetic at a fraction of the lifetime cost and none of the maintenance. For most Phoenix-metro homeowners, that's the right trade. ### Where can I buy an Invicta Novus wood-tone garage door in Arizona? Farnsworth Garage Door Service is an authorized Invicta dealer serving the entire Phoenix metro — Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Queen Creek, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Tempe, Fountain Hills, and Phoenix. Because the Novus is a premium wood-tone line, most of our Novus installs are in higher-end custom-home neighborhoods in Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, and Fountain Hills — but we install anywhere in the metro. Request a free in-home quote and we'll walk you through the three Novus finishes. ### Who installs Invicta Novus doors near me in Scottsdale or Paradise Valley? Farnsworth Garage Door Service is the local authorized Invicta installer for Novus doors throughout Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Fountain Hills, and the rest of the Phoenix metro. We order Novus doors direct from Invicta's factory, install with our own team (no subcontractors), and handle warranty support locally — no calling Invicta corporate. ### How do I get a free quote on installing an Invicta Novus garage door? Call or text us at (602) 935-9766, or use the Get a Free Invicta Quote button on this page. We come out for a free in-home consultation, measure your opening, walk you through Smoked Ebony, Spiced Sienna, and Whiskey Blonde, and give you a written quote with no pricing surprises. ### How much does an Invicta Novus (Model N18) cost to install in Fountain Hills? The Novus (Model N18) sits at the top of the Invicta residential line — luxury integrated wood-tone panels on a flush steel base, 27-gauge hot-dipped galvanized steel, premium hardware included as standard. Because the wood tone (Smoked Ebony, Spiced Sienna, or Whiskey Blonde), opening size, and window/hardware choices all move the number meaningfully, we quote every Novus install in Fountain Hills in person against your specific home. Written itemized quote, free in-home consultation, no obligation. ### How long does Invicta Novus (Model N18) installation take in Fountain Hills? The Novus (Model N18) is a premium build with integrated wood-tone panels custom-configured to your chosen tone (Smoked Ebony, Spiced Sienna, or Whiskey Blonde), so plan on roughly 6-8 weeks from order to delivery. Once your Novus (Model N18) arrives at our Mesa shop, we schedule the install — typically within the week if you're flexible — and the install itself is a one-day job for our in-house team. ### Do you offer financing on Invicta Novus (Model N18) garage doors? Yes — Farnsworth can walk you through financing options for a new Invicta Novus (Model N18) at your free in-home consultation. We work with common home-improvement financing programs so you can spread the install cost over monthly payments instead of paying all up front. Ask us during the quote and we'll walk you through the current options, terms, and what pre-qualifies you — no hard credit pull required for the initial conversation. ### Will my homeowners insurance cover a new Invicta Novus (Model N18)? Sometimes — if your Invicta Novus (Model N18) is being replaced because of a covered event (car-into-door impact, monsoon wind damage, hail damage, break-in), your homeowners insurance may cover full or partial replacement. A spring failure or normal wear-and-tear is usually NOT covered. If you think an insurance claim might apply, mention it at your free consultation and we can help you document the damage with photos and a written scope-of-work quote that most insurance adjusters will accept. We are not licensed insurance advisors, so run any specific coverage questions past your carrier directly. ### How does the Invicta Novus (Model N18) hold up in Arizona heat? The Novus (Model N18) is specifically engineered to deliver the look of stained wood without the AZ-heat maintenance real wood requires — no re-staining, no re-sealing, no cracking, no fading. The integrated wood-tone finish is UV-stabilized and holds color under Fountain Hills sun for the long haul. Underneath, 27-gauge hot-dipped galvanized steel with polystyrene insulation delivers real thermal performance too. ## Explore other Invicta doors Not sure the Novus (Model N18) is quite right?
