Los Angeles Custom Carriage Doors With Functional Awning WIndows
Los Angeles, CA - Everyday more and more homeowners throughout Southern California are discovering additional liveable square footage within their home's existing footprint. Where? You might ask and the answer is simply--in their garage! Many homeowners are converting their garages to man caves, playrooms, home offices, guest quarters and/or art studios. However, one of the biggest challenges is how to address the garage door track and hardware that simply look out of place in a newly reconditioned garage.
A solution that is often overlooked is replacing the garage door with fully functional out-swing carriage doors that convey architectural beauty but also add functionality and comfort. Depending on what new use is assigned to the garage area there are many options in real carriage door options that are sure to work out beautifully.
The custom carriage doors seen in this project were designed and crafted to not only look great on the exterior but also the interior. Since this garage conversion became a playroom we opted for fully functional awning-style windows that crank open to the exterior to let fresh air inside. The carriage door design was kept traditional to flow with the home's architectural style and finished in a white, satin finish.
Carriage doors are perfect for garage conversions because they still offer the flexibility of turning the garage back into a garage should the need arise or for resale purposes. Functional carriage doors are large enough to qualify as garage doors but are easily operated manually if needed. Our carriage garage doors are built with extra attention to detail and utmost quality so the home's curb appeal value increases and so does the use of the garage!

Inside, the garage has been converted to a children's playroom completely finished so that it flows with the rest of the home's interior design. The only thing hindering the conversion was the previous rollup garage door which required track mounted inside the garage with all the nuances and parts required for conventional overhead door. Eliminating all this hardware was successfully done by replacing the garage door with an authentically designed carriage door by Dynamic Garage Door. The carriage door was designed in a traditional shaker or craftsman style to accentuate the home's traditional architectural style. The awning windows only added character and look phenomenal even when they're open! Besides adding curb appeal, the awning windows on the carriage doors allow fresh air ventilation to reach inside the playroom while the children play comfortably and safely inside the newly converted garage.

Carriage Doors With Awning Windows

Living in highly urbanized areas such as Los Angeles and San Francisco has pushed residents to get creative and maximize every square foot of liveable space available. Many homeowners have discovered that they have a rather large liveable area within their very own garages that can be converted to functional, liveable spaces without major remodeling or construction. However; the challenge in converting garages into additional square footage to flow with the home's interior design is the unsightly garage door track and hardware that hangs from the ceiling. The entire garage can be finished with drywall, molding and flooring but all could be done in vain when facing this challenge. The simple solution to this is to replace the garage door with traditional real carriage doors that swing out. When installed, as seen in this picture of a project we did in LA, they look great from the curb because they actually add to the home's architectural essence and they are functional to operate by hand or automatically with an activating device. Real carriage doors look fantastic from inside because they are built and installed much like a front door complete with casing and design finishing on both sides! If the garage ever needs to be used as a garage again the carriage doors can be swung open fully and vehicles can still park inside without a problem. This means that when and if the home is ever put on the market it can be featured as having a garage or additional liveable square footage! The buyer market expands by presenting the garage as a multipurpose room!
