Why a New Garage Door Installation Could Be Just What Your Home Needs

Whether you have been mulling over the idea of replacing your existing door for some time or the thought has only just come into your head, weighing up the following benefits will help you to decide whether now is the right time to proceed.

• Curb Appeal – While the main entrance door to your Toronto home is of vital importance as far as its exterior appearance is concerned, nothing is guaranteed to add to the curb appeal of your property more effectively than a brand-new garage door. Whether you are in a relatively central suburb such as Richmond Hill or further out in the GTA, a beautiful new cedar overlay carriage door is sure to draw admiring glances from neighbors and passers-by.
•  

• Increased Value – While a new garage door installation is unlikely to add thousands of dollars to the value of your property, it will almost certainly make it easier to attract buyers should you decide to sell it at some point in the future. The easier it is for you to attract offers, the more chance there is that you will be able to get your initial asking price.
•  

• Lower Heating Bills – If you have an integral garage, a well-insulated new door will reduce the amount of heat that you lose through this part of your property during the winter months, resulting in lower utility bills. If you have a double-width garage, the savings you make could even be enough to justify the cost of your new garage door installation on their own.
•  

• Less Maintenance – An old door that has weathered many winters will need a fair amount of maintenance to keep it in a serviceable condition whereas a brand new door, manufactured from foam-injected fiberglass, will require nothing more than a quick wipe down with a damp cloth whenever it starts to look a little dirty. Residents in all areas of Toronto are sure to appreciate having one less maintenance task to worry about during the colder months of the year.
•  

• Security – A new garage door installation will be beneficial as far as home security is concerned, especially if you have an integral garage. Old doors are often the weakest point in a property’s defenses and can easily be exploited by opportunist burglars. Even if your garage is not of the integral variety, your car and tools will be much safer when they are protected by a brand-new, well-constructed, solid door.
