A garage door may constitute a significant portion of a home's exterior but is too often overlooked when homeowners plan an update. If you’re ready for a curb appeal makeover, here are some exciting overhead door ideas to elevate your home’s personality and value.

3 Garage Door Trends to Give Your Home a New Look

1. Bold Colors

The color of a garage door is often subdued or neutral. Gray, tan, and white doors are conventional. One design trend that has recently gained traction is a door color that makes a splash. Bold, bright reds, deep rusts, yellows, and sky blue hues will help your home stand out from the crowd. Homeowners who choose an unexpected color or accent for the doors of their garages know how to make a statement.

2. Windows

Many homeowners use their garages as workspaces. Lots of natural light makes it easier to work in a garage. Doors with windows that flood a garage with light also save electricity and brighten the space without compromising privacy. Even if you use your garage for storage instead of a workshop, more light will help you keep your garage neat and organized.

3. Size

Because of the popularity of boats, off-road vehicles, campers, and other recreational equipment, it makes sense to push the boundaries of size. Wider, taller garages and doors will give you the space to house all your cars and toys inside. Besides, garages minimize wear and tear and will keep your property secure while at home or away.
