1. The look of your garage door

Don’t settle for ordinary when extraordinary is within reach! Wayne-Dalton doors come in many different designs, colors, insulation values, and sizes. The Model 9800 features a magnificently molded wood-grain fiberglass surface concealing durable steel and polyurethane insulation construction. The 9800 offers a deep, rich woodgrain pattern that looks remarkably like real wood, unlike any other garage door on the market.

The Model 9700 door offers the look of an old-fashioned carriage house door with the durability of steel. For instance, Lexington design has a cross buck design that reminds you of a quaint barn door and the Charleston has a triangular pattern. The point is – there are many different looks to consider other than the traditional raised panel garage door. Look at the rest of your home’s architecture, and then find the design that matches it well.

Colors are also important. Most Wayne-Dalton models come in a variety of colors to choose from and all are ready for additional painting should you decide to get really creative and paint the door to match your shutters or siding. Or you could paint it two or even three different colors to make your garage door into a true fashionable statement. Hey, did we just use the terms garage door and fashionable in the same sentence? You bet we did!
