About a year ago we upgraded from a rickety wood garage door that had a row of windows to nice insulated metal one without windows. Every time I pull into the driveway I marvel at how plain it looks. That row of windows on the old one broke up the large expanse of white. Also as a little bit of spice, a few years prior, I had mounted one of those fake carriage door kits that every new home in every new sub-division in America has.
The only reason I bought that door kit was because it was in the bargain bin a Lowes for like eight bucks. How could I resist? I’d grown to like it, so I saved it off the old garage door thinking I’d put it back on the new, but never have. Maybe it is time. Kind of hate to drill holes in the metal door though…
Another option would be to paint some fake windows on the door where the old ones were. That would be a nice change. I would use Plasti Dip so it would be removable. Or maybe I could do the top “windows” and put a little arch on them. Or maybe a combination of windows and hardware.
