While it’s no secret that renovating
your home’s exterior is a smart way to renew the space and increase market value, many homeowners continue to
overlook the effectiveness of a garage door facelift. The team at Canadian Doormaster Electric Ltd., however, has been working for over two decades
in British Columbia to help homeowners amplify curb appeal as well as the salability of their homes by
providing key upgrades to the essential exterior feature.
“Installing new garage doors can
dramatically improve the look and exterior appearance of your home at a reasonable cost,” says
Canadian Doormaster vice-president Kyle Hart.
“By going from wooden doors to a
more sleek and contemporary aluminum and glass, or [an] insulated natural wood grain, [it can serve as a]
makeover and improve your home’s green quota.”
Hart adds that Canadian Doormaster also offers clients matching front doors for an even more dramatic difference in
curb appeal. A simple call is all it takes to discover what upgrades Canadian Doormaster has to offer. An informative door technician will assess your home improvement
needs before scheduling a visit from a residential salesperson, who will evaluate and measure the garage door
space as well as explain the diverse door options and available pricing.
The four most popular door
options include: Wooden doors, available in a variety of colours with options to be matched to your home’s
existing finishes and stains; steel doors, which come in a multitude of colours and finishes, and are even
available with pop-out windows for easier cleaning; aluminum doors, for homeowners looking to make a
statement with a sleeker, more modern design; and finally, insulated doors, which prevent heat loss and
minimize electricity bills.
“Weigh the options of insulated
doors that can reduce electricity costs and lead to your home being more environmentally friendly for
yourself and potential buyers,” says Hart.
The company, which also offers a
collection of aluminum and steel gates for homeowners interested in additional security and definition, also
presents interior residential overhead doors as a creative and functional way of merging indoor and outdoor
living spaces.
“If you’re building or
remodelling, consider substituting sliding glass doors or a bank of view windows with an overhead clear panel
aluminum door to instantly expand your surroundings,” says Hart. “A perfect solution to take advantage of our
temperate Vancouver weather to the fullest!”
After deciding what designs best
suit your needs, a quote will be available for approval either immediately or, for more complex applications,
within 24 hours. Regular installations will be scheduled within seven days and will take approximately an
hour or two to complete, depending on the project’s size and complexity.
“Should you have any questions
or concerns you can always call our office and we’ll be happy to answer any questions you have,” says Hart.
“Canadian Doormaster is a family business [that] has been installing overhead garage doors and gates in
the Lower Mainland for over 20 years and we’re always available.”•
