Residential Garage Doors Ideas To Elevate Your Curb Appeal

Sue Pedersen • July 6, 2022
Getting creative with your garage door is a great way to revamp your property's look. This enormous door takes up a considerable chunk of your home's exterior, so it can vastly impact your curb appeal. Here are a few design ideas for residential garage doors:

1. Liven Up Your Garage Door With Colors

Changing your garage door's color is one of the easiest things you can do to revamp the look of this large entry point. You don't have to replace your garage door; all it needs is new paint.

You can be creative when it comes to color. If your home’s exterior only has neutral palettes, you can paint your garage door with bold hues like fire engine red or bright blue to make your curb look livelier. If you're aiming for a warmer feel for your property, why not try a faux wood finish?

2. Accessorize Your Garage Door

Adding simple decorative hardware to your garage door can make your home look more polished and quaint. These hardware pieces include hinges, ring pulls, and handles.

A canopy or pergola is also a perfect decor for your garage door. It can accentuate this enormous door and add architectural dimension to your home.  

3. Add Flair Using Windows

There's no denying that placing windows on your garage door can make it more attractive. Aside from brightening up your interiors, windows can add elegance to your home's facade. If privacy is an issue, you can opt for frosted or mirror glass. Besides being functional, these types of windows are gorgeous to look at.

4. Create Drama Using Lights

As an entry point to your home, it is essential to place lights near your garage door. But besides adding security to your house, lighting can bring character to your property. Light can create patterns and nuances on your wall. On top of that, it can draw attention to certain aspects of the environment.

You can decorate your garage door with wall lamps or floodlights. It would be best to choose fixtures that go well with the theme of your house. By placing ornamental lights around your garage door, your home can look breathtaking from day to night.

5. Match the Garage Door to the Front Door

If you want your home to look more coordinated, mirroring your garage door design to your front door is a great idea. You can match paint colors, window and panel patterns, frame design, light fixtures, and decorative hardware. With a cohesive facade, your house will appear picture-perfect.

Your garage door is one of the first things people see when they pull up to your home. It only makes sense that this door goes well with the rest of your house.
