Does Your Garage Door Deserve The Grave?

Home improvement spending is at a 5 year high. One of the most common changes happening right now is the replacement of garage doors. This is happening for many reasons, but mostly because many garage doors have been ignored and not serviced and kept up with as they should.

Garage doors are the largest moving part of your home. They are very heavy and it’s important that you tighten bolts, apply lube, and adjust the door annually. This will keep your overhead door out of the grave! At least for the short term.

We are replacing a lot of wood garage doors that are over 20 years old and just hanging on for dear life. To not reach this point, ensure that you schedule annual maintenance. Our team offers garage door tune ups, which can greatly increase the longevity of your garage door parts. When it’s time to replace your garage door, it’s better to act quickly, so that unneeded stress will not plague the rest of your garage door system.

Why Replace Your Garage Door?

If your garage door is approaching 15-20 years of age, you’ll want to consider replacing it soon. There are many reasons why this is beneficial, but first, consider how important your garage door is to your routine. Most people use their garage door over any other entrance into the home. When malfunctioning, a garage door will be out of operation. This means that your car may be trapped inside your garage, or that you cannot close your garage door at night. This can be a stressful situation for homeowners, as it may create emergency scenarios. Any time you find yourself in this type of situation, Aaron Overhead Doors has an efficient repair team ready to help.

Safety Should Be A Priority

Foremost, our number one priority for garage door replacement is your safety. If your garage door is old, it may not be reliable. Damaged springs can cause the garage door to slam shut, and an old opener may allow the garage door to move inconsistently. The longer you wait on garage door replacement, the more time and money will be wasted. When you have a new garage door installed, our team will work efficiently with high attention to detail. After we finish the installation, we’ll perform a safety check and ensure the system is working correctly.

Skyrocket Your Curb Appeal

The second reason to consider replacing your garage door is for curb appeal. Many people don’t realize just how much garage doors influence this. Given that garage doors make up 30% of the exterior, they majorly contribute to the first impression of your home. If you are trying to sell, research has shown that you can get a high ROI with a new garage door. In fact, garage doors have shown to be the best exterior home improvement. Choosing a more unique garage door, such as a modern full-view glass, or a wood garage door, can greatly differentiate your home and give you a jump on the competition.

Energy Efficiency

When buyers are looking at homes, energy efficiency is commonly a large factor they desire. They want lower utility bills and a home that’s efficient at temperature control. Insulated garage doors are a great way to increase your home’s energy efficiency. We always recommend insulated garage door installation, as it will protect your door better and work to control temperatures in the garage. Insulation can come in 2 or 3 layers and will help with noise control in addition to temperature.
