Garage Doors.

Next to your front door, your garage doors go a long way toward your home’s making a great first impression. Whether you are building your first home or giving your home a makeover, garage door manufacturers, designers and vendors can help you choose a garage door that boosts your property’s curb appeal.

There’s no doubt that your garage door will see a lot of use. It needs to be up to the challenge and look good for years to come. Part of the secret to great-looking garage doors is the way they harmonize with the rest of the home’s exterior. A garage door manufacturer or designer might be able to collaborate with your home’s architect, designer, builder or other home improvement professional to design a stunning exterior. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of garage doors: Cladding & Exteriors, Doors, Home Builders & Construction Companies, Design-Build Firms, Artists & Artisans.

How to match your garage doors to your home:

• Use materials that coordinate with the rest of the exterior. If you have wooden shutters, opt for wood doors over steel.
  
• A large, prominent garage can take attention away from the architecture of your home. Painting the garage door the same color will blend everything together and make your house seem larger.
  
• For a unified look, match your house’s trim and garage door colors.
  
• If you have brick siding, paint the garage doors to blend with the secondary color in the brick.
  
• Professionals can help you find the right door for your home, from carriage-style doors made of wood to raised-panel steel garage doors.
