In 2017, outdoor living is all the rage. Everyone wants to be able to spend as much time in their backyard as possible, and to be as comfortable as possible. Whether you’re sitting around a dining table, a fire pit, or a pool, you want to be able to take advantage of the nice weather, for as long as possible.
You might think that garage doors simply serve one purpose: They’re the fourth wall of your garage and an entry point so you can move around larger items and vehicles. But, if you think outside the box, garage doors can be used for so much more. All-glass garage doors (Garaga’s California model is a great example) can be used outside as partition or curtain walls. All you need to do is to attach and bolt them on to a solid wood structure, so you can partition different sections of your garden. You can even overlap all‑glass garage doors to create modular outdoor “rooms”, such as a dining area or living room. The choices really are endless.
What’s more, there are tons of models and close to 20 different colour options available, so you can really let your imagination run wild. If you’re looking for more privacy, opt for coloured glass, we can provide it in so many different colours, try blue, bronze or grey. If you want everything to feel open, opt for standard clear glass. For safety reasons, we suggest only ever using tempered glass. Tempered glass, like car windows, will shatter into many small pieces if broken.
We understand that it can sometimes be hard to picture what such a unique idea will look like in your garden, so we’ve browsed through Houzz and Pinterest to show you some projects that people have completed around the world. You’ll see that some people have opted for fixed glass garage doors, which act as a glass wall, and others have opted for operational doors that they can open and close.
