Finding the right garage door for your home

Deciding on a new garage door for your home is an important choice. Whether your garage door faces the front, road, alley, or side of the home, choosing a garage door that adds curb appeal and an enhanced look to the home is something you will want to decide on. Garage doors come in a variety of styles, colors, prices, and materials, sometimes making the decision  difficult for the average homeowner, so we have put together a few points to consider when choosing the right garage door for your home.

  • First, decide on the budget you are looking to spend on your new garage door. This will help in narrowing down the options affordable to you. Feel free to get quotes from several garage door companies and compare pricing. When doing this, just make sure you are comparing the exact model and make of the door since there are a huge variety of doors available. Doors normally come in a non-insulated or insulated option. Remember to ask about the price difference between the two. This will help you to get more value for your money.

  • Consider the maintenance that will be needed to correctly maintain the garage door. Some doors require more maintenance throughout the year. It is recommended that all doors get a yearly maintenance and tune up to ensure the door is working properly. This is usually a minimal fee by a garage door company. While wood doors really add an elegant look to a home, they require the most maintenance. These doors have to be painted and stained, while a steel garage door would not require any exterior maintenance.


  • Choose a style of garage door that fits with your home's exterior look. For example, a traditional home may look great with a raised panel steel door or stamped garage door, while a contemporary home may look good with a flush panel garage door. Carriage style garage doors usually compliment rustic or country styles homes nicely. If you decide to add windows to your garage door, remember to ask about window inserts. They come in a variety of designs to give your garage door that extra look for a small price.

  • Colors will depend on the style of door you choose. Certain doors will come in selected colors. When deciding what color is best for your home, look at the exterior to match. For example, if you have bricks or stone, you may want to correspond the garage door color to bring out a hue in the bricks. If you want a garage door that really stands out, go with a color that contrasts with your home. If you are wanting to stay with a quieter look, go with a color that matches the trim of the home.





In all, when it's time to select a new garage door, whether to replace an existing one or a new construction, working with a professional can help you make the best choice.

Don't be afraid to ask questions and rely on expert advice. Garage door technicians can meet you at your home to discuss what needs and styles would work best for you and your budget.

You may also look on the company website to get an idea of what you are looking for.
