Carriage house style is a true remnant of the past. It conveys thoughts of beautiful workmanship, a lush countryside, and the long removed 50s and 60s. It’s no surprise that this style pulls up these thoughts, as that time was when the style became popular. However, the style has had a comeback of late and you can bring back that old time feel of comfort and family even now.
You don’t have to live in the country to enjoy these homes, it’s a great way to mix the small town feel with a big city lifestyle. That’s something that manufacturers of metal garage doors have come to realize. Because of that you’ll find that garage doors follow this style, even offering the look of wood, but without all the problems it can bring.
One of the companies taking this trend seriously is Garaga, who now offers 7 different models in the carriage house style alone. To better understand your options and what features are available, we’ve compiled some information to make it simple. We’ll help you find the door that fits your dream home’s garage.
