What are the Fundamental Functions of Garage Doors?
A garage, devoid of its doors, is not much better than a lean-to shed or overhead canopy under which to park your vehicles, and has considerably less value as a storage area for the safekeeping of tools and garden equipment like lawnmowers, edge trimmers, spades, and more. Sturdy, strong garage doors, such as those made from steel or other suitable robust materials by reputable manufacturers (like us at Chateau Doors) are essential.
In this article, we will explore the functions of garage doors in further detail.
The Fundamental Functions of Garage Doors
One would not neglect to install exterior doors in a dwelling’s outer walls, so why have a garage without garage doors? Let us explore the most important functions of garage doors. They:
- Keep out wind and airborne dust and debris, which is likely to scratch or damage shiny vehicle surfaces.
- Help to prevent the oxidation, fading, and degradation of vehicles’ paintwork, especially on horizontal surfaces.
- Minimise the amount of dust that builds up on all items in the garage.
- Keep the garage’s contents dry by minimising the entry of wind-driven rain and hailstones.
- Deter burglars and vehicle thieves, who cannot be tempted by unseen contents stored behind closed garage doors.
- Provide safe, secure, and lockable parking space for vehicles.
- Provide additional secured storage space for infrequently used household appliances and similar goods.
- Improve the value of the property.
- Enhance the property’s neatly maintained appearance, aesthetic appeal, monetary value, and saleability.
