Not only can a new garage door provide safe,
secure, and easy access to your garage, but it also can renew and refresh your
property’s overall appearance, particularly if it can be seen from curbside.
Determining
the new garage door material. One of the most important factors to consider
is door material. Garage doors are made from steel, wood and wood composites,
fiberglass, vinyl, and aluminum. Though each of these has its benefits, steel
and wood doors are by far the most common. All new garage doors are not created
equal, and each material used in construction has its own pros and cons. For
example, while a steel garage door will last a long time, it can also be
dented, something to keep in mind if your kids play ball in the driveway. Wood
doors are beautiful, incredibly strong and can be custom designed to perfectly
complement your home’s architectural style, but they require routine
maintenance and can be more expensive than other new garage doors on the
market. And, if you live in an area subject to strong winds, you’ll want to
consider doors with high wind load ratings.
Consider style
that matches you home design. After you have chosen a material it’s time to
consider what aesthetics you’d like your garage to have. New garage doors have
come a long way from just being a solid field of color! Today you can get doors
that have lutes or windows in them and you can get doors that mimic the
architectural details of your main home. From traditional carriage doors for
individual doors to double sided contemporary varieties, there is no limit to
your creativity! Many homeowners are seeking out garage contractors to help
them out with this decision.
Make sure
it’s climate-change-ready. With today's high energy costs, new garage
door insulation is just as valuable as anywhere else in your home. The
number of uninsulated garage doors sold continues to decline as consumers
demand energy efficiency for cost savings and comfort, which is more important
than ever as more people use their garage as a work place or social gathering
spot, and not just storage.
