A Door for Every Garage
One of the most important elements of a garage is the door. The size, the material, the color, the style, the functionality – it all plays a key role in how your garage will look and ultimately how it will work. And let’s not forget that it can be a personal reflection of your style! With that in mind, why not have some fun with it! Here are some style inspirations to consider when looking for a new garage door.
Raised Panel
Raised Panel doors are a slick and smooth design option that can add more visual interest and dimension to your garage. These garage doors are characterized by their symmetrical raised rectangular panels and are a clean and classic garage look. Some offer the added visual elements of inset glass windows. If you’re looking for a simple and elegant garage door without a lot of busyness, this style is a great choice!
Recessed Panel
Quite similar in style to a raised panel garage door, the recessed panel design offers a slightly different take on the clean and classic look of a garage door. Marked by the recessed symmetrical rectangular panels, recessed panel doors are chic, simple, and work well with most home styles. Much like the raised panel doors, they also come in many materials types and color choices so there are many affordable and beautiful options to choose from!
Carriage House
Carriage House garage doors are typically referred to as the “barn door” style, with a distinctive, rustic look that can really stand out and add a nice touch to your home. These garage doors are typically preferred when paired with a craftsman or mission style home but more and more have been embraced in a variety of home styles across America. It ultimately comes down to your personal aesthetic and the home’s exterior. In certain areas of the community you may need to have the style of the garage and garage door approved by the city to remain within a certain style.

Contemporary
