How to Get an Old Wooden Look with a New Steel Garage Door

Your home represents your style, interests and tastes, both inside and out. The style of home you choose, the colors you paint it in and the way you organize your garden all speak volumes. However, all too often one part of your house stands out from the rest and spoils the overall appearance. Standard garage doors do the job they are meant to, keeping your vehicle safe and out of the harm’s way, but they hardly add to the value and visual joy of your home.

It is, however, possible to achieve perfection with a high‑quality garage door that not only provides security but also fits the exterior of your home.

The right look for the right home

If your home combines a classical look with urban architecture, you need a garage door that does the same. With an old, wooden look on a steel base, the Cambridge urban traditional is the ideal solution for the purpose.

Described as having a 'neoclassical style', the door comes in a range of colors and models that suit any style of home. In addition, this style of garage door provides you with an opportunity to opt for a wood grain effect finish and choose from a plethora of window options.

Maintaining safety and security

As well as looking stunning, the Cambridge garage door provides all of the safety and security aspects that you would expect. The door itself is 1 ¾‑inch thick and is made from galvanized steel. The wood grain effect is created on a specially formulated overlay with a polyester paint coating.

The entire unit is fully weatherproofed so that your vehicle and other items that are stored in your garage are less likely to succumb to the effects of the weather, such as water damage, mold, and rust.

The door also comes with reinforced hinges and 14‑gauge galvanized steel track to give you additional piece of mind. The door sections come complete with a lifetime warranty and even the paint on the moldings has a ten‑year warranty against cracking or peeling.
