Considering a kitchen or bathroom remodel for your next home project? Think again. According to the 2022 Cost vs. Value Report by Remodeling magazine and Zonda Media, exterior home improvement projects provide the greatest return on investment (ROI) year after year. In fact, updating your home’s exterior with a new garage door is the biggest return on your investment. The report estimates that, on average, homeowners who replace their garage door see a whopping 93.3% cost recouped on resale, the highest among all replacement projects. Since 2010, garage door replacements have consistently ranked among the top five household renovation investments.

Zonda Media further reports, based on a 2022 Builder Brand Use Study, that Overhead Door™ brand came out on top among other industry leaders in such renovations. The study analyzed which brands builders, developers and general contractors used over the course of the previous year. Overhead Door™ brand was ranked by respondents as highest in “brand familiarity,” “most used in the past two years” and “most used” overall.

Replacing your outdated or damaged garage door with a new, customized door gives your home a unique curb appeal that attracts potential buyers and makes the neighbors jealous. According to the National Association of REALTORS, “Homes with high curb appeal tend to sell for an average of 7% more than similar houses with an uninviting exterior.”

Tips for Choosing the Right Garage Door for Your Home

Select a garage door material that fits your lifestyle.
Location, climate and building codes are just a few factors to consider when determining which type of garage door is right for your home. The garage doors in our collections come in steel, wood, aluminum and fiberglass. These four materials are strong, durable and unique.

Steel is the most popular material for garage doors and requires the least amount of maintenance. While the other materials are considered a sleeker curb appeal upgrade, steel is the prime option for durability and performance. Our steel doors are layered with polyurethane or polystyrene insulation. As an added benefit to the insulation, the extra foam layer reduces noises that can possibly be heard inside.

The garage door can be refinished to complement any changes made to the home exterior over time.
