Did you know that cedar garage doors are tough enough to survive the majority of damaging elements Mother Nature can throw at it? It’s true. They will withstand moisture, cold temperatures, decay and wind as well as repel insects. Plus, with the right amount of care, cedar garage doors will hold up in hot climates too. And don’t worry. The care required is not terribly taxing.
In most cases, a special marine grade varnish blended with a penetrating oil is the best finish to help keep cedar garage doors looking lovely year after year. Depending on the door openers and garage framework, a little maintenance may be needed in those areas as well. The list of examples includes oiling working parts and caulking gaps or replacing weather-stripping.
But weather-resistance and low maintenance factors are not all cedar garage doors are known for. Cedar garage doors are full of individual character and beauty. Those natural traits come courtesy of the wood grains. They typically feature attractive colors and patterns that help make no two cedar garage doors the same.
Cedar garage doors may also be customized to fit odd-shaped garages and driveways. For instance, cedar garage doors may be designed to slide to the side, swing up, roll up or swing out. Upon request, manufacturers could also add a variety of hardware and other elements designed to compliment custom or standard, cedar garage doors.
Furthermore, installing cedar garage doors may come close to doubling your return on investment. To be sure, consult with a local real estate agent to find out what potential home buyers have a history of looking for in custom or standard garage doors. The agents may recommend using cedar as a base material or some other type of attractive wood.
