What Are The Latest Garage Door Trends So Far in Scotland 2024

Here at Power Doors, we understand that your garage door is the main focus of your home's appearance so not only should your garage remain secure but also that it looks its best. Seasons come and go, and so do garage door trends.


Whether you're looking for a new garage door or considering an upgrade for your existing one, here's a look at what's hot in the world of garage doors for 2024:

Sleek Aesthetics 

Garage doors have come a long way in terms of design and style. Gone are the days of bulky, industrial-looking garage doors. Modern trends lean towards clean lines, flush panels, and hidden hardware. Whether it's a country style side-hinged door or minimalist chic up-and-over door, Power Doors offers a variety of styles in steel, aluminium, faux and natural timber to achieve this look, with a wide range of colours to match your home's exterior perfectly.

Colours

Homeowners are embracing a wider colour palette, although classic white, grey and sleek black still lead the way in popularity. Grey tones, from soft silver to deep charcoal garage doors, offer versatility and sophistication. For those looking for a warmer look, brown, oaks and woodgrain finishes remain popular. For those seeking more pop of colour, sage green or shades of blue or red can make a door truly eye-catching.

Home Integration

Creating a cohesive exterior is essential for a home's overall aesthetic. Matching your garage door to your front door is not an essential but it certainly gives an added elegance. Consider coordinating colours, materials, and even styles for a seamless and polished appearance. This attention to detail can transform your home's exterior into a clever and stylish statement.

Smart Technology 

Smart home technology has revolutionised various aspects of our lives day-to-day, and garage doors are no exception. Electric garage doors allow you to control your garage door remotely using devices such as your smartphone from inside your car, making those rainy and windy days a bit easier. Other smart features like automatic closing, obstacle detection, and integration with other smart home devices enhance convenience and security. 

By incorporating these features into your garage door choice, you can enhance your home's aesthetic appeal, improve its energy efficiency, and enjoy the benefits of modern technology.

Energy Efficiency

As environmental impact awareness and indeed energy bills continue to grow, so does the demand for energy-efficient products. Insulated garage doors are becoming increasingly popular as they help to regulate temperature and reduce energy consumption not just within your garage, but across your whole home. By investing in an energy-efficient garage door, you can not only save money on utility bills but also contribute to a greener environment. For those who occasionally use their garage space not for their car but for working out, a personal workshop or socialising, having insulated doors can reduce drafts while making your garage more comfortable.

Other Factors to Consider

While these trends are a great starting point, there are some additional elements to consider:

Weather: Scotland experiences a temperate climate with occasional high winds. Consider opting for a material like steel or aluminium that can withstand the elements.

Space: If you have limited driveway space and space is a necessity, perhaps consider a roller or sectional garage door.
