Garage trends – Modern garages 2020

Just a few years ago, many homeowners opted for colored façades in light shades of blue, yellow or grey. Today, the trend is towards white façades with accents in anthracite gray – for example with gray roofs or window frames. This is also reflected in the color scheme of the garages.

 

Garage trend colors

For some time now, clean, light colors have been the trend for garage façades, broken up by dark accents. In fact, garages are often ordered with white façade paint and to complete the modern look, trend-conscious people are opting for anthracite-colored doors.

Particularly in the case of modern large-capacity garages, many are following the trend and opting for a combination of white color and dark garage door with a matching roof edge design.

Tips for the color concept of your own garage:

  • You will see the façade color of your garage almost every day and usually for decades! So think about which colors you like best in the long term. Architects therefore recommend opting for restrained and calm colors that you will still be happy with in a few years’ time.
  • Pay attention to harmony! The color of the garage must match the overall concept of the house, garden and neighborhood.
  • Colored paints are somewhat less durable. Due to the different pigmentation, colored façades are somewhat more sensitive to light than earth tones. This speaks in favor of façade paints from a plain color world.

 

To protect the façade from environmental influences, the garage experts at ZAPF recommend always having a so-called roof edge design fitted. The roof edge design is made from a sturdy aluminum-zinc sheet and ensures that there are no streaks or dirt marks on the garage wall caused by rain and snow. The great thing is that the practical roof edge design can also be perfectly matched to the trendy colors. As there is a large selection of colors, the roof edge design can be perfectly integrated into the overall color concept. Incidentally, experts recommend choosing a door and roof edge design in exactly the same color.

In addition to the modern color scheme, other trends in prefabricated garages have established themselves:


  • Sectional door

    More and more garage owners are opting for the space-saving sectional door. Thanks to its innovative 90° door travel, you have more usable space in your own garage. In addition, a second vehicle can park directly in front of the garage without preventing the garage from opening.

  • Green roofs

    The trend towards increased environmental awareness is also finding favor with garage owners. More and more garages are being fitted with a green roof, which transforms the garage roof into a plant biotope as a breeding ground for bees, birds and other small animals.

  • Electric door operator with remote control

    A massive trend that seems almost irreversible is the electric door operator in combination with a remote control. Either in the classic way using a finger scanner or radio code button – or in a very modern way (with the ZAPF Connect package using an app.
