What Colors Are In?
You can’t go wrong with white. Timeless is in, so homeowners can never go wrong with painting their garage door white. White paint never goes out of style, hence why many people use it for a timeless look.
Black
Black is back in a big way, especially as an accent color on windows, garage doors, and trim. Black should be at the top of the list. It’s one of the hottest garage door colors on the market today, and it offers a unique look that will make your home pop. It will hide any flaws in your garage door and make it look brand new. If you currently have a white or beige garage door, painting it black can give your home a new, fresh, modern look.
Gray
If your home’s exterior is painted a non-neutral color, like a greenish-blue or even a super deep green or navy blue, a warm gray paint color will look great on the garage door.
Gray is going to be a popular color choice his year. It’s a softer, more modern color than white. It will blend seamlessly with your home and allow you to add a touch of class. It fits with the neutral trend. It is less noticeable than white but still adds a classy look. Whether you choose soft gray or a darker shade, you can use gray to cover up any flaws in your garage door while adding a modern feel to your home.
Sandstone, Taupe, or Light Beige
if you don’t want to put a punchy color on your garage doors, try a light brown color, such as sandstone or taupe. This rich, neutral color would pair well with existing stone and crisp black accents. It will also feel unique and pretty without being too bold.
Navy
Speaking of painted white homes, Navy blue allows you to add a little color to your home’s exterior without detracting from its beauty. This color is so rich, deep, and beautiful. If you’re going for a farmhouse vibe, or even if you have a more traditional house, painting your garage door navy makes a big difference in your home’s aesthetics without appearing too bold or too much.
