If you’re like most homeowners, you open and close your garage door multiple times each day. For some, it’s used more frequently than the front door. It’s easy to turn a blind eye to flaking paint or dented panels or to overlook a system that isn’t in working order and live around it. However, the garage is one of the first places people notice of your home’s exterior, and when it’s beaten up, it can make the entire house look less pristine. A garage door replacement can help increase your home’s curb appeal in a few ways.

How a Garage Door Replacement Improves Curb Appeal

1. Creates a Unified Look

Most homeowners put a lot of effort into picking a front door that matches the rest of their home’s exterior. However, the standard garage door is not given the same amount of consideration, making the house look patchy and uncoordinated. Installing a new garage door replacement designed to match the rest of the home’s accents will create a unified look across the home’s exterior. The more put-together a house looks, the more attractive it is to visitors and prospective home buyers.

2. Gets Rid of Clutter in The Yard

Kids’ toys, cars, bikes, and all the items your family uses daily have a way of detracting from the exterior of the house. However, when a garage door is old and not working reliably, you’re forced to keep those items outside. A garage door replacement will eliminate concerns about a damaged motor or broken garage door that won’t stay on the track. When it’s in proper working order, you can use your garage, eliminating unsightly clutter from the front of the house.

3. Adds Visual Depth & Character

Since the garage is the largest entryway of your home, it’s also one of the most easily noticed parts of the home’s exterior. By adding a new door that uses a color complementary to the siding of the house, one with framed windows, you’ll create a sense of depth and character for the property.
