How To Choose The Right Garage Door For Your Home

July 21, 2020 By caoverheaddoor

Everyone wants to have a home that looks great and that has a nice aesthetic. 

But while most people focus on things like siding colors, or having the perfect landscaping, the importance of the garage door is not usually given much thought. 

Having a garage door that compliments your home can add a lot of curbside appeal. 

In fact, the right garage door can be a total game-changer and make your house stand out from the crowd. 

But where to begin? Today CA Overhead Door will give you our best tips for finding the perfect garage door for your home. 

Choose A Style 

Your home has a certain style to it, as all homes do. 

The key to having a garage door that looks amazing with your house is to make sure the garage door nicely fits the style of your home. 

Some websites give you an online visual tool to add different garage doors to your home so you can know for certain that a door fits perfectly with your house.  

Clopay is a website we recommended that will help give you garage door style ideas for your house.  

Price Shop 

You can choose a quality door while still sticking to a budget.

When shopping for a garage door, it’s important to remember  that this is not something you will have to purchase again anytime soon…or ever.

 Although it is wise to stay within your set budget, you should also make sure you get a door you love and that is high quality. This way it lasts a long time and compliments  your home. 

It’s a good idea to check out multiple garage door companies in your area for quality and pricing options.

Just remember – when it comes to great garage door companies in California, you want a reputable business like CA Overhead Door to help you!

Educate Yourself 

Knowing what the pros and cons are for the different types of garage door materials is essential in making the right choice for your home. 

According to Driven By Decor,

“The most popular garage door material is steel. Steel doors can be insulated to be more energy-efficient than wood doors and they are lower maintenance and generally less expensive than wood doors. 

Aluminum doors are typically the least expensive type of garage door and the most lightweight (and thus easiest to lift manually) but also the most prone to dents. 

However, aluminum has the advantage of being resistant to rust and corrosion, giving it an advantage in coastal regions. Natural wood doors need to be repainted or restained every few years and they can be quite costly compared to steel and aluminum doors.

However, the warmth and beauty that wood garage doors can bring to a home are undeniable.”

Whatever type of door you choose, make sure you know how to properly maintain it. You may also want to find a good garage door repairman for maintenance and repairs over the years.

Don’t Forget Your Warranty

Garage doors should be built to stand the tests of time, so it is a great idea to check on the warranty offered by your garage door company.

Be sure that the door you purchase has a fair warranty that comes with it. This way if anything ever happens to your garage door you can hire a garage door repairman to fix it without stressing financially.
