Fabulous Faux

Going Green

The final trend to highlight is good insulation. Not as flashy as glass or plank designs, but a properly insulated garage door could help you take a huge step forward in making your home more energy efficient. 

Having a garage door that is properly insulated can help:

• Prevent air leaks
• Create a comfortable environment to work in the garage or business year-round
• Protect the garage door from dents 
• Reduce street noise 
• Increase thermal efficiency - especially when the walls surrounding the door are also insulated

The main entrance to a lot of homes is through the garage. Keeping the garage temperature controlled through insulation can help control the temperature in the whole home. 

The amount of insulation you need varies based on where you live based on the climate and weather you experience. If you live somewhere that is very hot or very cold, you may need more insulation to achieve optimal performance. Getting a garage door with the correct amount of insulation can go a long way in making your garage and even your home more energy efficient.  

These three trends are on our radar right now, but we know they have the lasting power to remain top of the chart for a very long time.
