6. New garage doors are today’s front door.
A nationwide survey of consumers said that 71 percent of homeowners use their garage door openers to get into their
homes every day, even more often than the front entry door. The key to the front door is now the garage door’s remote
control and keypad. Yesterday’s latchkey kids are today’s keypad kids.
7. New garage doors can help you keep your house clean.
With a keyless entry pad mounted outside your garage door, why traipse dirt in through the front door when you can enter
through the garage? You can leave muddy shoes or boots and drenched coats in the garage and keep your house cleaner.
8. New garage doors can be a fashion statement.
People are becoming more style conscious when replacing their garage door. On many American homes, the garage door
claims a third of the façade, so it’s a snap to quickly makeover the look of your whole house. You can easily increase curb
appeal when you choose from hundreds of different looks in elegant and stylish carriage house, contemporary or raised
panel doors.
9. New garage doors can express your individuality.
Housing developments have their advantages, but individuality usually isn’t one of them. In homes that are more than five
years old, chances are your door is a solid-colored, raised-panel door that looks like every other garage door. Choose a
fashionable contemporary or carriage house garage door, and your house instantly stands out from the crowd.
10. New garage doors can protect your family from powerful winds.
Reinforced garage doors are now available to help your home stand up to brutal winds. Researchers studying the wind
effects of devastating storms know that garage doors are often the entry point for severe damage. A new strong garage
door is an integral part of maintaining the structural integrity of your home.
11. New garage doors can help accessorize your life.
Garage door opener accessories abound. Many new garage door openers switch on lights in your home as you’re
pulling up the driveway. Some alert you if you left the garage door open. Some door openers are activated only by your
fingerprint. You can even make a fashion statement with your garage door remote by customizing it to match your car’s
interior.
12. New garage doors should be installed by a professional.
Don’t try to install the door yourself. It’s a complex and dangerous task. Garage door springs are under extreme pressure
and, if not handled properly, can release with enough power to seriously harm or kill someone. Specific tools and training
are needed; therefore, it’s highly recommended that you have a professional who can do the job in just a few hours and
haul the old door away. The cost of installation is well worth it.
