Your garage door takes up a lot of square footage on the front of your home, so visitors and passersby are bound to notice it. Pay close attention to the different styles available when it’s time to replace your current door so that you get one that complements the rest of the home’s exterior. Here are a few popular styles and their benefits.  

What Are Some Residential Garage Door Styles?

1. Raised-Panel

If your house has a steep roof and strong architectural lines—like those found on a Colonial, Tudor, or Victorian home—a raised-panel garage door will be well suited to this aesthetic. These doors consist of symmetrical raised rectangles that run horizontally and vertically across the facade. Choose a shorter length to give more depth to your door or longer ones if you prefer to add a dramatic flair.

2. Carriage House

Today, this look has been transferred to garage doors found on historic homes. While these doors can be installed to swing out, many homeowners prefer to install those designed with a modern twist, so they can still open them like a standard sectional door. 

3. Contemporary

When you’re home subscribes to a more modern architectural style, you want contemporary garage doors that match. The industrial look combines metal or wood with glass to create a sleek design with clean lines. Additionally, the fogged glass frames brighten the interior of your garage without sacrificing privacy.
