What types of garage door styles are most popular right now?

Modern Flush Styles Are Leading the Way

The garage doors I’m seeing that are most popular right now are the modern doors, especially the flush styles. These have a sleek, minimal design that works well with many newer homes and contemporary architecture.

Black Garage Doors Are Trending This Season

Black is really in season right now. I would definitely be recommending black garage doors, especially for homeowners looking for a bold, modern look. However, they work best in shaded areas. In direct sunlight, black doors can cause thermal buildup, which is something to consider before you buy.

Check With Your HOA Before Making a Choice

Before choosing a garage door, it is important to check what your HOA requires. Your homeowners association may have rules about the color, material, or style of garage door you’re allowed to install.

Most HOA-Approved Styles Are Traditional

The styles we see most often approved by HOAs are:

  • Sonoma
  • Colonial
  • Ranch

These classic styles are common in many neighborhoods and tend to meet local design guidelines.

Choosing the Right Garage Door Style for Your Home

If your area allows it, a modern flush door in black is one of the most popular and stylish options available right now. Just be sure to consider how much sun the door gets and double-check with your HOA to avoid any issues. If your neighborhood has specific requirements, traditional styles like Sonoma, Colonial, or Ranch are still great-looking and widely accepted.
