Garage doors made with glass panels and aluminum framing enhance the modern look of a residential property. The feature can transform the appearance of a home. Glass garage doors in Chicago are installed by qualified contractors who can clear up any misconceptions customers may have about these products.
Aesthetic Appeal
An array of glass panels makes a home more visually intriguing. Curb appeal is enhanced, and the house looks more contemporary. Glass doors fit with any type of building material, including vinyl and metal siding, brick, wood, and stone.
Natural Light
Another advantage is the natural light they bring to the structure. This is particularly desirable for people who like to work inside the garage and would otherwise need to keep lights on or the door open. Homeowners who do their own vehicle maintenance and repair or use the space as a workshop benefit from the substantial area of glass.
Tempered Glass Advantages
Homeowners may worry that glass doors would be less durable than other materials and at risk of breaking. However, they have the option of choosing products made with tempered glass. This is the material used in vehicle windshields; it helps prevent breakage from large hail and unintentional mishaps. Tempered glass is energy efficient because this material provides insulation.
Low Maintenance Requirements
Also, the doors do not require more maintenance than other materials would. Occasional cleaning is all that’s necessary. A light spray of mild detergent can be applied and rinsed away with a garden hose. Homeowners who want the panels to sparkle and shine can apply a glass cleaner and wipe it off with a soft cloth.
