15 Modern Garage Doors That Demand a Second Look

When Ben Carstensen decided to redo his backyard, he converted half of the 540-square foot detached garage into a screened porch. He painted the whole garage including the exterior trim and the existing wood garage door the same color in order to "make the house look slightly more modern, without losing character," he said. The color is a discontinued shade, called Evening Canyon, from Behr, that he had mixed at Home Depot. "I tried so many before landing on this one," he said. "This one ended up being my favorite, because it maintains a nice warm tone all throughout the day. Others would end up either looking too cool (almost navy blue) in direct sunlight, or just look brown."
