You can have the most beautifully landscaped garden, complete with immaculate windows, front door and perfectly trimmed lawn. Get your garage doors wrong and you could ruin the whole external appearance of your home.
It can be easy to overlook them, but these doors are much more than the functional barrier between the interior and exterior of your garage, or a point of entry.
Really elegant models can enhance what estate agents call the curb appeal of any property, or how appealing the outside of where you live is to prospective buyers, and increase the value of your home. After all, it’s hard enough to sell a house in the current climate, without your garage doors letting you down.
What’s more, thanks to new materials and technologies, garage doors prices are more realistic than you realised, and you don’t have to spend a fortune to make a stylish upgrade. What’s more, it’s an investment that it’s definitely worth making.
Homeowners who dip into their home improvement funds for garage doors will benefit from:
- Better materials and designs
- Better operating technology with a quieter, quicker operation
- Improved insulation
In fact, one magazine study of cost versus value for various home improvements ranked an enhancement from a basic to a mid-market garage doors as the second best project in terms of giving value for money when spending smaller sums.
Security
At the same time, garage doors are far more important than you may have realised in terms of security. Any thief is an opportunist thief, and if the entry to your garage is weak or damaged in any way, it can make your property look very vulnerable to any would-be burglar.
Energy Efficiency
Finally, you may not have realised the importance of garage doors in terms of energy efficiency. If your fuel bills are higher than you’d like them to be, you may not have realised that the doors to your garage could be having a negative effect on your home’s energy efficiency by offering poor insulation.
