Garage, like other parts of a house, need proper care and renovation. With technological advancements nowadays, you can install modern and remote controlled garage covers for your house. These can make a big difference for your time, home design, and health. You can also protect your family from thieves and unwanted guests.
Before, most homeowners just left the garage open. Only a few installed garage covers but even these needed pushing or lifting. Get rid of these challenges, upgrade your garage, and maximize your energy at home. Here are some reasons you should decide on remote controlled garage installations.
Garage doors differ from entry doors in that function is more important than form. Where wood is the commonest material used to construct patio and back doors, metal in the likes of steel and aluminium are preferred for garages. Why's this so? Why can't garage doors be made of wood or even vinyl?
Unlike entry doors which are small and easy to customize with decorations and hardware, garage doors need to be heavy and sturdy. Low maintenance is a feature that's prized because homeowners don't want to spend on repairs every so often. Garage contents are also expensive with cars and bikes figuring into thousands of dollars. If burglars can gain entry with no trouble then the whole point of placing vehicles in garages is negated.
Low upkeep and anti-theft properties aren't the only factors. Where the main parts of the house are properly insulated to increase living comfort, garages tend to be left unfurnished (unless converted into a livable room) and insulation, heating and cooling don't normally extend to them. With metal doors and modern construction techniques, the interior can be kept a lot drier and warmer or cooler depending on the weather.
Of the numerous metals that can be fabricated, steel and aluminium are favorites for their strength, durability and affordable cost.
Steel: Steel trumps even over aluminium. Known for its high strength especially top quality steel with 24-gauge panels, there's not a lot burglars or inclement weather can do to bring it down. The construction method too plays a role with some doors featuring thicker steel on the outside for a formidable finish.
Modern steel doors are also customizable either by using paint or tinkering with the design. Paint jobs can mimic the look of wood grain and stone but without the weaknesses suffered by the two.
The best steel door is one which promises insulation and is thick enough to guard against the cold, rain and impact. The addition of security alarms enhances the protection offered by this durable material.
