In the market for a new garage door? There are many different decisions to make—including panel design. Your garage door is a significant part of your home’s exterior and it should complement the overall style. Choosing the right panels can help with this.
Types of Garage Door Panels
You have plenty of garage door panel options—three common types include:
Flush panels
These types of panels are flat (though they can be slightly textured). They aren’t as ornate and are used for contemporary style doors.
Flush panel garage doors can modernize your home’s exterior.
Raised panels
Raised panel garage doors are extremely popular and complement nearly any home. There are short and long raised panel designs. Both add depth to the garage door, but long panels offer a more distinctive look.
Raised panel garage doors can lend authenticity to older and period style homes (Victorian, Tudor, Colonial, etc.).
Framed panels
Framed panel garage doors can look a bit like raised panel models. The door’s surface is flat yet the panel frames add depth and create a unique aesthetic.
Framed panel garage doors can give your home distinctive character.
Choosing the right garage door panels for your door’s design and your home’s façade can make a significant difference, especially if you’re trying to improve curb appeal or just spruce up the exterior of your house.
