OGD® is a nationwide garage door and dock equipment company that began in 2011 when founder and CEO Bret Westbrook, a U.S. Army veteran and former Infantry Officer with the 82nd Airborne, purchased a single-location garage door company in Corsicana, Texas, and rebranded it as Overhead Garage Door, LLC. Having grown up working for his father’s garage door business (Athens Overhead Door), Bret brought deep industry familiarity to the venture, and the company expanded quickly — opening a second location and national headquarters in Fort Worth, Texas within six months, acquiring Athens Overhead Door in 2012, launching its commercial new-construction arm (OGD® Equipment Company) that same year, and expanding outside Texas starting in 2014.
In 2019, the company purchased the domain ogd.com and rebranded fully as OGD®. Today, OGD® is a veteran-owned, family-owned, BBB-accredited business operating in more than 50 locations across the United States, serving residential homeowners, business owners, general contractors, developers, and architects. The company is organized into two branches: OGD® Overhead Garage Door, which handles residential and commercial garage door repair, replacement, and installation along with spring, motor, and opener services; and OGD® Equipment Company, which partners with contractors and developers on large-scale new construction projects, including overhead sectional doors, high-performance doors, rolling service doors, and loading dock equipment.
OGD® positions itself as an industry disruptor, aiming to modernize what it describes as old-school garage door industry practices through same-day service (with an average response time of about 0.62 days), 24/7 availability, trained technicians, warrantied work, and a stated commitment to hiring locally and supporting veterans and first responders in the communities it serves. The company holds an average 4.8-star rating on Google across 6,800+ reviews and a 4.7-star rating on Facebook across 500+ reviews, and it continues to grow through both new market expansion and the acquisition of regional garage door brands (such as Garage Doors of Indianapolis, Mid Georgia Garage Doors, Door Tech Garage Doors, Madisonville Garage Doors, Owensboro Garage Doors, and Halls Garage Doors) into its family of companies.
