CHOOSING A GARAGE DOOR COLOUR

While some homeowners prefer to look at the color options and point them out first, most garage door consultants take a moment. Choosing the right color for your garage door is important, especially since it makes up about 30% of your home curb. Colors can affect how people view your door, and can even increase or decrease the selling value of your home.

Whenever we sit down with a homeowner to discuss their new garage door options, we'll talk about how we can find colors that complement your siding, entrance doors, and other colors that can be seen with it.

So how do you choose a color out of thousands that fits all of these criteria perfectly? It usually starts with a specialist garage door technician guiding you. Let’s get to the sea, a conversation about garage door colors what a C&W garage door client would look like!
