Here in Northwest Florida, with the sun\u2019s rays and weathering, homeowners can expect to need to repaint a garage door about every five years to keep it looking in top condition. The prep work, including sanding and priming, will need to be done beforehand. A big decision that needs to be made is what color best fits the look of the home\u2019s exterior. Updating your home\u2019s aesthetic can be as simple as a few changes to the hue added to a garage door, the front door, and shutters. It can add value, look more modern, and increase curb appeal.<\/p>\n

Factors to consider when choosing a garage door color:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Do I want the garage door to stand out?<\/strong> A bolder color will create this effect. Using black when you\u2019ve got black shudders, for example, will create a uniform look that speaks sophistication and elegance.\u00a0 Or, if your home\u2019s trim includes lighter colored trim like white or gray on windows, doors, and shudders, painting the garage door the same light shade will look excellent.<\/li>\n
  2. Do I want the garage door to blend in with the exterior?<\/strong>\u00a0 If you would rather the door almost not be noticeable because you are trying to accentuate a red door or other accents, simply paint the garage door the same shade as your exterior paint color. The garage door will nearly fade into the background.<\/li>\n
  3. Are you still not sure?<\/strong> Online software tools are available to help you \u201csee\u201d different colors on your home before you commit to any shade of paint.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
