For many people, the most important consideration when making any important purchase for the home is budget. However, whilst it is natural that how much you have available to spend will affect your buying decisions, price alone is not always the only thing that matters. If you are looking for a new garage door, here are some key things you should also think about.<\/span><\/p>\n Your home is a place that you are proud to call your own, and no doubt you have invested a lot of your hard earned money to create that special place and add your personal touch, both inside and out. So when you decide to invest in a new garage door, it is really important to consider how it will fit in with the style of your home and its surroundings. Are you happy with a traditional white steel door, or do you think that your property deserves something more discreet, or perhaps the visual appeal of a wood finish? <\/span><\/p>\n At Arridge Garage Doors, we supply a huge range of styles and types of door, meaning that you\u2019ll always be able to find something that looks perfect. We offer a wide range of contemporary colours and finishes, as well as the traditional classics. We\u2019ve even had a bespoke design featured in the finals of <\/span>Grand Designs House of the Year<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Often, the type of garage doors you install will be dictated by the interior and exterior space available. Up and over garage doors tend to be the best option where both interior and exterior space is limited. Both canopy and retractable doors require a limited opening area in front of the garage. Although each type opens slightly differently, it is typically advised to allow at least a meter to safely accommodate the swing of the door and the person opening it. A third to a half of the height of the door is recommended. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t1. Style<\/span><\/h2>\n
