As someone who has installed a window in my garage door, I can share my personal experience and the steps I followed.

Please note that these steps are from Garage Door Medina OH and based on my own experience, and you may need to adapt them to suit your specific garage door and window type.

1. Choose the Window:
   • I selected a window that matched the style and dimensions of my garage door. I considered factors such as the material, design, and insulation properties of the window.
   • I measured the dimensions of the window opening on the garage door to ensure a proper fit.
2. Gather the Tools and Materials:
   • I gathered the necessary tools and materials for the installation, including a tape measure, marker or pencil, safety glasses, gloves, screwdriver, drill, jigsaw or reciprocating saw, caulking gun, silicone caulk, mounting brackets or clips, screws, and a level.
3. Prepare the Garage Door:
   • I opened the garage door and secured it in place using clamps or locking mechanisms to prevent accidental closure during the installation process.
   • I cleaned the area where the window would be installed, removing any dirt or debris.
4. Mark the Window Opening:
   • Using a tape measure, level, and marker or pencil, I measured and marked the desired location of the window on the garage door.
   • I took into account any horizontal reinforcements in the garage door and made sure to avoid cutting through them.
5. Cut the Opening:
   • I put on safety glasses and gloves to protect myself during the cutting process.
   • I used a drill to create pilot holes in the corners of the marked window opening.
   • With a jigsaw or reciprocating saw, I carefully cut along the marked lines, following a steady and controlled motion.
   • I removed any cut pieces and smoothed the edges of the opening with sandpaper or a file.
6. Install the Window:
   • I applied a bead of silicone caulk around the outer edge of the window frame.
   • I positioned the window into the opening, ensuring proper alignment.
   • I secured the window in place using mounting brackets or clips, following the manufacturer’s instructions for the specific mounting method.
   • I checked that the window was level and plumb, making any necessary adjustments.
   • Using a screwdriver, I attached the mounting brackets or clips to the garage door, ensuring a secure fit.
   • I wiped away any excess caulk with a clean cloth or rag.
7. Seal the Window:
   • I applied a generous bead of silicone caulk around the perimeter of the window frame, sealing the gap between the frame and the garage door.
   • I smoothed the caulk using a caulk smoothing tool or a finger dipped in soapy water to create a neat and uniform seal.
8. Test and Clean Up:
   • I carefully opened and closed the garage door to ensure smooth operation and that the window did not interfere with its movement.
   • I removed any protective coverings or tapes from the window and cleaned both the interior and exterior surfaces.

Please remember that these steps are from Garage Door Medina OH and based on my personal experience, and it’s essential to refer to the manufacturer’s instructions and guidelines for your specific garage door and window model. If you are unsure or uncomfortable with the installation process, it is always recommended to seek the assistance of a professional installer or a garage door specialist who can ensure a safe and proper installation of the window in your garage door.]
