Most home building and renovating trends include the décor of the home, but doors and windows are becoming a larger part of the style and utility that homeowners are looking for. Below are some of the trends we are seeing around windows and doors in 2017.
Enormous Doors — Homeowners are more than ever trying to bring the outdoors into their homes. Large-scale doors help connect the surroundings to your home through their vast openings and larger-than-life size. They provide higher home quality, expanded versatility, and will become much more common in new construction homes and remodeling projects.
Energy Efficiency — Technology is constantly advancing and home windows and doors are no exception. Recent technologies such as triple-pane glass, auto-dimming glass, and increased thermal resistance are moving windows into the 21st century. Glass panes, trim, walls, doors, and seals are improving drastically to help lower your heating and cooling costs while also reducing their environmental impact with renewable materials. Contact us today to learn about some of the new energy efficient windows and doors we can professionally install in your MN home.
Dark Colors — In recent years, white trim for doors and windows has been the go-to for home remodeling and new construction. But as with all trends, this style is beginning to be replaced by darker, more dramatic accents for doors and windows. Adding a dark window frame or door to the exterior or interior of your home can add a bit of contrast and drama to your home to help it stand out from all the others.
Smart Homes — Who ever thought that you could stay connected, even when you are far away from home. Smart Home Technologies are allowing homeowners to add features to their homes that add security, convenience, and efficiency with the use of their phones or computers. Several companies offer security sensors that track if a window or door is open or closed, and even locked our unlocked. Garage doors can be opened or closed with a phone, and doors can be opened with a fingerprint. All of these features will add a sense of wonderment, convenience, and peace-of-mind to your home.
Sustainability – Today’s homeowners are concerned with not only saving money, but saving the planet as well. Windows and Doors made from renewable materials and produced with minimal impact to the environment are growing in popularity. Using less energy, recycling materials, while installing and producing these products in an economical and efficient way are all leading to higher satisfaction with homeowners and reducing their net-impact on the world around them.
