Choice of single or double arch is available for arched top double car windows. Not all styles shown may be available in your area — confirm with your DOORTEC specialist.
* Also available in tempered. Optional insulated glass available for improved thermal performance. Clear windows can be arranged horizontally or vertically on Short, Long, and Flush panel designs.

Inspired by the artisanry of traditional blacksmiths, Wayne Dalton's decorative hardware collections lend a distinctive, yet subtle touch of individuality to your Classic Steel garage door. Every piece is forged from black powder-coated steel with a hand-hammered look. Kits include 4 hinges and 2 pull handles; double car doors receive 2 complete kits.
Additional accent pieces — corner brackets and clavos — are available to match or complement each collection. Pull handle fit in center stile is dependent upon design and size of door. Hardware images shown are representative — visit any DOORTEC Oklahoma City showroom to see physical hardware samples.
Wayne Dalton warrants your 9605 Series Series door panels against cracking or splitting due to rust-through for as long as the original purchaser owns the home — no time limit, no exceptions.
The polyurethane foamed-in-place insulation is warranted against degradation and R-value loss for the full life of the door under original ownership.
All springs, cables, tracks, hinges, and hardware components are covered under Wayne Dalton's limited hardware warranty for 12 months from the installation date.

If you've been looking at the Wayne Dalton 9100 and wondering if there's a step up — there is. The 9605 builds on everything that makes the 9100 Oklahoma City's best-selling residential garage door, then adds a steel backer panel in place of the composite ToughGard® liner. The result is a noticeably more rigid door with better dent resistance, improved long-term durability, and a higher R-10 insulation rating on 8-foot doors.
The biggest differentiator is TruChoice® — Wayne Dalton's custom color painting program, exclusive to the 9605. With over 6,000 factory color options, you're no longer limited to six standard finishes. Whether your home is a modern contemporary with bold architectural color, a craftsman with a specific earth tone, or a traditional colonial that needs an exact trim match, the 9605 can be ordered in virtually any color you can imagine. DOORTEC's specialists can walk you through the TruChoice® color fan deck at any of our our Oklahoma City showroom.
Like the 9100, the 9605 features polyurethane foamed-in-place insulation with a U-factor of .26, the TorqueMaster® Plus Counterbalance System with springs safely enclosed in a steel tube, and pinch-resistant panel joints — a Wayne Dalton safety innovation. The 9605 comes with a Lifetime Limited Warranty on panels and insulation, and every DOORTEC installation is backed by our own workmanship guarantee.
The 9605 is available in all five of the same panel designs as the 9100 — Short Panel, Long Panel, Flush Panel, Vertical Short Panel, and Vertical Long Panel — so you get the full range of architectural styles from traditional raised panel to clean contemporary flush. Doors come in four-panel 8'×7' and five-panel 8'×8' configurations, with custom sizes available through your DOORTEC specialist.
Window options are identical to the 9100: 31 styles for Short and Flush panels, 29 for Vertical Short, and 22 for Long and Vertical Long panels — with glass choices in Clear, Gray Tinted, Satin Etched Privacy, and Obscure, plus optional insulated glass for improved thermal performance. Decorative hardware kits, hammered knockers, and lift handles in seven styles complete the look, all forged from black powder-coated steel with a hand-hammered finish.
