2017 Garage Door Color Trends

On a recent trip to California I was excited to see how many home owners were using bold colors on their garage doors to create a beautiful statement piece. The 2017 garage door color trends are far from the typical whites and browns. We are seeing greens, blues, reds and yellows, in brights to mutes. These trending colors can create a powerful effect that can completely change the aesthetic of your home.

Garage door shapes and styles have evolved a lot in the past few years, but we are only just recently seeing changes in color. You can now extend accent colors and shapes from your home to the garage door. If you are ready to update your home and want to add some much-needed curb appeal, think about adding color to your garage door!

Begin by considering the colors you already have on your home (shutters, window trim and the front door). Use a darker or lighter shade of those same colors as a starting point. At the local paint stores you can find color cards that will show how to create color blends that work well together. Keep in mind that it can sometimes be difficult to imagine how it will look until you actually see the colors together.

If you have earth tones on the exterior of your home and don’t know where to start, consider the colors you have in your landscaping. Evergreen, Heron Blue, Sage Green, Mustard Yellow and Brick Red are some of the most popular 2017 garage door color trends. These colors instantly make your landscaping accents pop! If you are still a bit unsure, just go to the internet and you will find many pictures that can inspire you to add some personality to your garage door.

Many businesses are recognized by their logo and store front colors so adding a bold garage door color can help your business to stand out from the rest!  2017 garage door color trends for commercial doors are: Fire Engine Red, Royal Blue, Grass Green and Solar Yellow. Many restaurants are using garage doors as exterior walls and interior walls. Garage door color can add a fun and exciting atmosphere and create an interesting statement that customers will remember.

Going bold with the 2017 garage door color trends can be a bit scary, so I have attached some fun pictures to inspire you! Color can truly change the overall look and curb appeal of your home. Warm colors add richness, dark colors make a sophisticated statement, and bright bold colors show your personality and leave the greatest impact.
