Garage Door Transformations
Bring fresh excitement to the front of your home with a simple yet striking makeover
Personalize Your Garage Door
Once you decide on the style and panel design. Experiment with vertical vs. horizontal window placement to transform the look from a traditional to a contemporary-style garage door. Or add a pop of color to match your new garage door perfectly with your home’s shutters, trims, and stonework panels.
Depending on the garage door, wood grain finishes may also be available to emulate the look of natural wood. Apart from standard upkeep, like removing dirt and buildup over time, steel, vinyl, fiberglass, or aluminum garage doors demand very little maintenance. Get the best style and durability with an Overhead Door that lasts a lifetime.
Add Windows
Garage door windows can boost your garage’s curb appeal by accentuating your garage door. This can add resale value to your home and make your garage look more cohesive with the rest of your home. Windows come in several shapes and sizes, with many different glass finishes to choose from, so you can have the aesthetic you want in your garage.
Depending on the model, you may have the option for window placement. Vertically placed windows would elevate the overall look to a modern style, while traditional horizontal window placement would match rustic homes.
Add Decorative Hardware
Decorative hardware to your garage door may be the ideal touch to enhance your home’s curb appeal! Overhead Door’s collection of door accents brings a distinctive yet subtle touch of individuality to your garage door. A bonus: people will notice your attention to detail and good taste for a relatively low price.

Arched Top Style Garage Doors
Garage doors with unique contours, such as the arched top, add architectural elegance to function. Painting the doors black and adding overhead lighting adds sophistication and warmth.
If you want the arched look but don’t want to narrow the door opening, consider adding architectural details, such as a brick façade, to create an arch above traditional doors. This touch can turn your home’s curb appeal from bland to extraordinary.
