Each year has trends: fashion, food, home décor, and yes, even garage doors. This week, Straight Up Garage Doors is explaining this year’s garage door trends.
Home Security Trends
More and more people recognize the need for home security as neighbors and priorities change. Smart homes offer a variety of security options. However, reinforced entry points are also a great way to upgrade your home defenses. Innovations in secure access hit the market this year as well, making 2021 a year all about peace of mind.
The garage door is many people’s most commonly used entry in and out of the home. Having a secure garage door installed by trustworthy and established professionals gives you peace of mind.
Smart Home Devices
One of the biggest trends in 2021 is upgrading the garage with state-of-the-art technology. Many smart devices offer applications you can run on your phone to watch security cameras no matter where you are, alert you of any changes to your system, and even tell you if the garage is open. Some go so far as to let you operate the door remotely from nearly anywhere in the world. With these sorts of smart devices, you can be sure that your garage door is never left open by accident. It guarantees that your most convenient point of entry is also the most secure.
Going with high-tech applications like this are smart garage door openers, such as advanced wall mount systems that save space. These smart openers can communicate with wireless wall consoles, integrate with smart apps, and come with convenient features. For example, features such as buttons allow the door to close with a 30-second delay.
New and Contemporary Designs
Home designs seem to be continuing towards sleek and streamlined aesthetics that waste no time on frivolities, and garage doors that have clean lines provide an unbroken line that doesn’t disturb the facade of the house’s design. However, homeowners have also come to understand the need for utility when it comes to things like durability to go along with their desired aesthetic.
Consistent with trends, homeowners in 2021 also chose colors and design options such as glass rolling doors and colors that make their homes stand out from the rest of the crowd, adding value and curb appeal. Experimentation with customization is a trend that doesn’t show any signs of slowing down, with homeowners opting for bold and highly personalized garages and garage doors that can be a main defining feature of their home’s façade.
