The Complete Guide to Purchasing Garage Doors for Homeowners

Is your garage turning into an eyesore?

Are you brainstorming your next remodeling project?

Do you want to add value to your home with the intention of selling it in the near future?

Now’s a great time to consider purchasing garage doors.

Garage doors also break down over time. Parts like garage door openers, pull cables, springs, hinges, and more parts need periodic replacing over time. If too many parts are in need of repair, a complete garage door replacement may be more cost-effective in the long run.

Let’s start the process right now with this buyer’s guide.

Understanding Different Types of Garage Door Materials

When most people think about garage door building materials, wood is likely the first material that comes to mind. Paint adheres better to wood, providing homeowners with a rainbow of garage door colors to choose from. Contractors can also stain wooden garage doors, leaving a natural look.

If you don’t want to use real wood, there are faux wood options like vinyl doors built to look like real wood. These doors come in a wide selection of colors. You can also purchase vinyl garage doors that mimic the look of wood stains.

Wood composite garage doors are made from wood, polystyrene, and fiberboard. Grooves and textures are also added to mimic the surface quality of real wood.

Aluminum frame garage doors are another option. This material is sturdy and doesn’t rust. Fiberglass doors are another wood alternative to consider, as well.

Choose from Different Garage Door Styles

Next, think about your home’s architectural style: which garage door style do you think would work best?

For example, if you want added privacy, choose a style with small windows placed near the top of the garage door. This style allows for enough natural light without sacrificing privacy. Always consider security when choosing the right style.

Most people are familiar with the raised panel garage door style. These doors typically have rectangle-shaped panels “popping out” from the surface. However, you can purchase this style with square panels for a cool grid-like effect.

You don’t have to include windows, either, especially for security reasons. However, you should consider installing safety lights above the garage door to help you safely pull into your garage at night.

Do you prefer a fully illuminated look?

Consider a grid-style garage door made from steel frames and frosted glass. Frosted glass also preserves the security of your garage.

Next is the carriage-style garage door. This style is ideal for ranch-style homes and farmhouse-style homes. You can also buy these doors with traditional handles.

Your next task is to choose the right garage door installers for the job. The step involves gathering quotes, reading reviews, and comparing garage door costs to find the right company.

A professional will come out to your home to measure housing dimensions. However, it helps to have as many technical details as possible during your first consultation so that you can receive the most accurate quote for the job.

Make the Right Choice When Purchasing Garage Doors

Make sure your garage remodel goes as smoothly as possible. Take time to choose the right materials, door styles, and installers so that you can get your money’s worth.
