The availability question, locally
With Ogden's stock the model question comes first. Find the label (end stile or top panel), photograph it, and let a supplier rule on availability before anyone talks replacement. On older doors budget for the finish as well: a decade of sun means the new section will not match, and repainting the door usually costs less than chasing a discontinued colour.
Expect the finish conversation too: years of Ogden sun move a panel off its original colour, quicker at 4,311 feet where the UV is stronger, so the new section will read slightly newer than its neighbours. An exact-finish order or a post-swap repaint closes the gap.
The dent test is width: short of a crease running the full span of the section, damage is cosmetic and the door operates normally for years. Creased edge to edge, the section has lost its stiffness and replacement is the honest call.
Same metro, different numbers: Ogden in context
Drive fifteen minutes and the inputs change — South Ogden's median build year is 1966; Washington Terrace's median build year is 1961; and Riverdale's median build year is 1972.
Against that backdrop, Ogden holds 84.9 cycles at 4,311 ft with a 1962 median build year — the specific inputs behind every figure above.

Do I need to repair a dent in my garage door?
Only if it is creased across the full width or the door has gone out of square. A cosmetic dent affects nothing mechanical, and living with it costs $0 — which beats both the panel swap and the full-door upsell.
