Benefits of Modern Glass Garage Doors

The materials and design options of garage doors have evolved in the past decades; once you view the design options on a glass garage door, it’s difficult to see any other garage door. Modern Glass garage doors are stunning and have various perks, some features you may be unaware of.

Aluminum garage doors have various tempered glass options to control natural light without compromising privacy. They are just as rugged and durable as the ones used in restaurants and car dealerships. Frames can also be custom powder-coated to match an exterior accent color of your home.

Allow In Natural Light

The most benefit of modern glass garage doors is their ability to allow natural light. The natural light from the sun transforms your dark garage room into a bright and welcoming space. Great for people who spend much time in their garage, whether working or exercising.

If you seek more privacy, consider opaque or satin glass panels, which allow plenty of natural light while protecting your garage view from onlookers.

Improves Your Curb Appeal

One of the most striking advantages of glass garage doors is their ability to enhance your home’s appearance dramatically. Modern glass adds a sleek and contemporary touch, unlike wood or steel garage doors. They can instantly elevate your curb appeal.

Glass doors seamlessly blend in whether your home embodies contemporary architecture or leans towards a classic design. They complement different architectural styles, from minimalist to elaborate, without overwhelming the existing aesthetic.

Low Maintenance

Cleaning the glass panels in an all-glass garage door is as simple as cleaning your home windows. Other parts of the garage door, such as the door springs, rollers, and hinges, must still be maintained regularly.

Energy Efficiency 

Modern Glass Garage Doors are not as energy efficient as solid garage doors; glass garage doors incorporate features that mitigate heat loss, including:

• Rails and stiles filled with expanding liquid polyurethane foam
• Vinyl bottom seals to reduce air infiltration and drafts
• Tongue and groove joints provide a great weather barrier
