Clopay’s Avante Garage Door Wins Best of IBS Award
Easton, United States – March 13, 2026 / First Choice Garage Doors Inc. /
Easton, MD – March 2026 – First Choice Garage Doors is delighted to acknowledge one of its premier manufacturing partners, Clopay, for achieving the Best of IBS™ Award at the International Builders’ Show for the second consecutive year.
This year’s accolade celebrates Clopay’s innovative Avante® garage door equipped with C-Power™ enabled Click-to-Conceal™ Panels, a groundbreaking advancement that is transforming the functionality of garage doors in contemporary homes.
The C-Power™ technology provides electrical power directly to the moving panels of the garage door-an unprecedented platform in the industry that paves the way for entirely new functionalities. Its inaugural application, Click-to-Conceal™ Panels, enables the glass sections of the door to shift instantaneously from transparent to opaque with a simple press of a wireless remote.
This feature allows homeowners to bask in natural light and enjoy outdoor vistas when they choose, while also ensuring privacy and security when required-turning the garage into a versatile living or entertainment area.
“Winning the Best of IBS award is significant because it acknowledges not just a product, but a vision for the future,” stated Victor Weldon, President and CEO of Clopay Corporation. “Delivering power directly to the panels unlocks possibilities for innovations our industry has yet to explore. Click-to-Conceal Panels is merely the beginning.”
The award-winning door is prominently displayed on the 2026 NAHB New American Home, which was featured during the IBS event and showcases the latest advancements in residential construction and design.
As a trusted installer of Clopay products, First Choice Garage Doors is eager to introduce these cutting-edge innovations to homeowners, builders, and commercial clients throughout Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and North Carolina.
