Garage Door Trends for 2021

Garage Door Trends for 2021 will continue to lean toward a sleek, no-nonsense aesthetic with designs favoring a contemporary style. Modern and clean lines provide an uninterrupted flow between these spaces and best complement modern architectural design.

Homeowners also understand the importance of performance and energy efficiency paired with aesthetics. As such, garage doors featuring premium insulation and durability are a top priority in addition to elegance.

Color Trends

White is always a popular color, adding plenty of curb appeal and considerable value to your property. Yet it will quickly show stains from dirt and debris.

Almond: Another neutral color, almond hue can look lovely with houses with lighter exteriors. This color won’t go out of style soon; it matches and highlights different types.

Sandstone is a popular choice for homeowners and will most likely stay with the trends. As a neutral, it flows well with many colors typically used on houses’ exteriors.

Brown: Brown is a pretty versatile color, as many shades of brown can be used on garage doors. Another popular choice, brown, will complement light or dark paint.

Gray: Light gray is among the most popular color trends for garage doors. It is darker than white but has a soft appeal that can help you add a unique flair to the overall look of your garage.
