Want the best value for your garage door? Of course you do. A new garage door is a property investment. You can expect to spend anywhere from $1,000 to $3,000 for a new garage door, but it’s not cheap. The good news is that new garage door installation has one of the highest returns on investment of all home improvements — 97%, nearly dollar for dollar. You essentially earn what you pay for a new garage door back through improved equity. That’s why many people selling a home should consider replacing a garage door if it’s in bad repair. They’ll get that money back through a better property value due to improved curb appeal.
Let’s look at the advantages of new garage door installation and why this investment is one you should plan and save for.
Garage Door Style & Appearance
Why is the ROI so high for installing a new door? Simple. Curb appeal. Your garage door is most likely your home’s most prominent feature. A new garage door can vastly improve the look of your home — and at the same time the resale value. Curb appeal is the biggest thing realtors look at when marketing a home. If your house looks great from the street, it not only will be easier to sell — it will fetch a higher value. The money you spend on a new garage door is an investment you reap in a home value that can be measured in actual dollars.
Garage Door Safety & Security
A new garage door can vastly improve the safety and security of your home. As the biggest entryway to the house, garage doors are targets for thieves. Older doors are easier to break into — especially if they are falling apart with missing panels or holes in the woodwork. A newer garage door can be better fortified. This protects your property, as well as your family.
