Faux Wooden Garage Doors

​​Garage Doors That Look Like Wood But Are Not

impression vertical long panel model 7800 (983) clay 8 window

Who doesn’t love the look of a real wood garage door? The wood grain texture, rich look, and natural feel make wood garage doors a desired addition to many homes. But a wood garage door may not be for everyone. Real wood doors can be more expensive than those made with other materials like steel and fiberglass, and they typically require more maintenance. Homeowners who want the rich look of a real wood garage door but without the regular maintenance have a lot of options to choose from. Most of our faux wood garage doors look very realistic, making it hard to tell that it’s not actually made with real wood.


What is the best faux wood garage door?

Getting a steel or fiberglass garage door for your home will not only improve your curb appeal but it can increase the value of your home. With high consumer demand for wood doors, these very realistic faux wood door options will make your home stand out from the rest. Another frequently missed benefit to having a steel or fiberglass door with wood grain stains and textures is less maintenance. Wood needs to be regularly maintained to keep it in tip-top shape. If it’s not properly maintained regularly it tends to change over time due to weather and other factors, causing fading, cracking and warping. Here are our top four faux wood garage door models to consider:

 

Fiberglass Garage Doors

The first three garage doors in the line-up are our Overhead Door™ Impression fiberglass garage doors that utilize artfully molded wood-grain fiberglass surface, which gives the beauty of wood without the maintenance. These garage doors are some of the closest you’ll get to the look of real wood. The fiberglass surface material can be easily molded which creates these beautiful designs.

 

 

 

 

Painted Faux Wood Garage Door – Courtyard Collection®

Maybe you’re wanting a painted wood door look instead of a stained finish. These next three doors are made of steel and are designed to look like a traditional wood carriage house door. Match the trim on your home with the nine standard color options available. Our Overhead Door™ Courtyard Collection® has some great choices for homeowners looking for garage doors that imitate the beauty of real wood.

 

 

 

 

A Wood Grain Door Look that’s also Insulated

If you’re someone who’s looking for energy efficiency and you desire the stained wood door appearance, a door from our Thermacore® or Carriage House Collection might be the perfect fit. Our Thermacore® Collection has three pre-painted wood grain finish options available on select models that look amazing – Mission Oak, Golden Oak, and Walnut.

 

We also have our Carriage House Collection which has an embossed wood-grain texture on the exterior that’s offered in eight stained finish options as well as painted finishes. The Stained color options include Mahogany, Walnut, Oak, Green, Gray, Clay, Honduran Mahogany, and Red Oak. The Carriage House Collection is another thermally efficient choice for homeowners seeking added energy efficiency.
