The popularity of automated garage doors has grown exponentially in recent years. Our experts at Kay Garage Doors can install the best products on the market to give your home the wow factor it deserves.

Whether your current garage door shows signs that it needs replacing or you simply want to upgrade your garage after completing improvements elsewhere in the home, automated garage doors are the perfect solution. Here’s why:

#1. Automated garage doors look better

The UK is home to an estimated 11 million garages and many of them have not had the door changed since their initial installation. Therefore, millions look outdated due to wear and tear while others simply don’t match the rest of the property following an external update.  Either way, automated garages are sure to provide optimal curb appeal.

When choosing Kay Garage Doors, it is possible to choose from an extensive range of styles. This includes contemporary designs and traditional looks alike. Either way, the garage door can be used to integrate with the rest of the property for an iconic look that will make your home the envy of the neighbours.

Whether the garage is connected to the main building or a separate structure, the choice between styles like ‘up and over retractable’ or ‘up and over canopy’ can make a world of difference. With so many colours and materials on offer too, finding the perfect solution to give your garage a stunning makeover should be easy.

#2. Automated garage doors are safe and secure

Almost 200,000 house burglaries are reported in the UK, with many more unreported situations occurring too. Automated garage doors remove one potential entry point because there are no windows or pickable locks that could provide access points for intruders. Without the remote, they simply cannot get inside.

Better still, many automated doors can be managed remotely. So, you can keep an eye on the situation at all times. You will never have to worry about leaving the door open or unlocked again. This makes them a more secure solution than manual garage doors while simultaneously keeping your mind at ease.

In addition to boosting your home security, automated garage doors can be deemed a safer option. This is because you will not have to pull the door and run the risk of pulling a muscle. The automated doors are far less likely to encounter mechanical problems as there is no risk of you opening them with too much strength.

#3. Automated garage doors add a layer of convenience

Automated garage doors are more convenient for several reasons. Crucially, they can be opened remotely once you approach the home. This means that you do not have to leave the vehicle until you are back inside the property. So, you do not have to worry about getting caught in the rain or fighting with a manual door when it’s windy.

Aside from saving you from adverse weather, it is a move that can save you valuable time. While it may only be a few minutes, it can be very useful before work or when you are desperate to get back to the comfort of your home. On a side note, automated garage doors usually have reduced maintenance – outside of replacing the remote batteries.

If you are looking to upgrade your home in 2023, automated garage doors are the perfect choice for their aesthetic and practical attributes. To find more about the various solutions available, contact the Kay Garage Doors team today.
