We looked into replacing our garage doors with new ones....the carriage look. We got several bids and looked into Costco too. We didn't want to go with wood, because our garage doors are exposed to full sun all day.
Our garage doors are more of a modern design with horizontal panels.
I research Craig's list and found some faux painters. We decided to go with Irina, from IP Art and Design. She is very artistic and has a large gallery of photos. It's fun to see the before's and afters.
You can find here on Facebook and here.

Now, we have our new wooden gate and faux painted garage doors for more curb appeal.
My husband added hardware to the doors to mimic carriage doors. He ordered them from Amazon.
See the decorative clavos on the gate? Those round clavos add character. We are thinking about adding them to our garage doors. False nail heads *decorative * Powder coated * Clavos means Nails in Spanish
