How Roller Garage Doors Can Increase the Value of Your Home

First impressions count. Whether it’s a job interview, first date or trying to sell your home – if you get a first impression wrong then it’s unlikely you’ll get the outcome you’re looking for.

When showing off your home, a garage door is one of the first things that people notice, so having a high-quality roller garage door installed can seal that positive first impression. As well as this first impression, roller garage doors can also add significant value to your home. 

In fact, industry experts estimate that a quality garage door can add up to £11k to the value of your property. 

In this article, we’ll outline the different ways in which a roller garage door can increase your home’s value.       

Add to the aesthetics of your home

Whether you’re looking to sell your home or just want to raise its overall value for the future, making it easy on the eye is always going to help. Adding that wow factor to a property, a modern, premium roller garage door can provide a real boost to your home making it more appealing to buyers and, inevitably, increasing its valuation. 

At Rollerdor, we can provide your home with all the latest styles, colours and designs, helping refresh the exterior of the property while enhancing its valuation.  

Improve your home security

Old garage doors can be a security risk and can often be breached fairly easily. However, the roller garage doors that the team at Rollerdor can install are incredibly secure. Made from the toughest materials, they can be integrated with any existing security systems you have in place.

Many homeowners store vehicles and other valuable objects in their garages, so by securing your property and making it more difficult for thieves to break in, the value of your home will surely rise.    

Make your home more energy efficient

When looking to buy a property, many potential buyers will be interested in how energy efficient it is, as this will help them save money on bills in the long run. Installing a roller garage door can help insulate your home, meaning it stays warmer for longer and therefore will result in less money being forked out on energy bills.

If you don’t have an energy-efficient garage door, then you’re likely to lose a lot of hot and cold air through openings. That’s why we’d always recommend having a modern one installed — they’re also better for the environment. 

Properties with these types of garage doors in place are likely to be more valuable than those that don’t. This is because buyers are more conscious about their environmental impact and the efficiency of their energy use than ever before.  

Why you should choose roller garage doors

There are a wide range of garage doors that can all add value to your home. But we’d always recommend a roller garage door. Unlike the standard up and over garage doors you may be used to, a roller garage door retracts straight up into a compact box, allowing you to maximise your space while maintaining a modern, sophisticated appearance. 

The combination of a contemporary design, great security features and the ability to save energy means roller garage doors really are the very best choice if you’re looking to increase the valuation of your home.
