​Magnetic Garage Door Décor vs. Coach House Accents

When it comes to having elevated and lasting curb appeal stemming from your garage, it can feel like the world is conspiring against you. Rain can make your decorations rust while extreme weather can outright destroy them. Sometimes neighborhood vandals will even misplace and rearrange your magnet decorations or other personal property! Before you get too discouraged, the secure and decorative hardware for garage doors that Coach House Accents offers is here to save both the day and your reputation in the neighborhood. Coach House products are made in America with quality materials that are secure, realistic looking, affordable and increase your home’s value with a simple installation process. It is time to skip over the many cheap and temporary magnet solutions seen on the web and focus on lasting home value.

Why Invest in Garage Door Decorative Hardware?

When you install decorative hardware (think windows, handles, and hinges), you’re increasing the curb appeal of your garage. Curb appeal is determined by how attractive a property and its surroundings are when viewed from the street. A home’s property value can be increased or minimized depending on its curb appeal, so the addition of a few decorative handles or faux windows can go a long way to increase a home’s worth.

Why Choose Decorative Hardware from Coach House Accents?

With so many decorative hardware options on the market, Coach House stands out for its quality products that retain their appearance for years in harsh outdoor climates with the unique screw-in installation process. Coach House Accents is also ISO 14001 standard certified, so you can have peace of mind while you’re helping the environment.

The Anti-Theft Advantage

Magnetic decals can certainly look great on a garage door—and if thieves have the same idea, they only have to yank off your decal and run away. That’s why all of Coach House’s decals are screwed into a door to hold them in place and stop neighborhood vandals from re-arranging your décor. The screws will also hold the accessories firm during extreme weather and high winds, which is ideal in coastal regions that may be prone to hurricanes.

Rustic Without the Rust

Having a gorgeous carriage house aesthetic isn’t so impressive if your garage décor becomes rusted and erodes in a few years’ time. Many door accessories are made with metal, and when metal is exposed to air, moisture, and the elements they rust. That means installations in coastal areas or climates with ice and snow are especially at risk of losing their allure within a few years. That shouldn’t stop you from achieving your home curb appeal goals, which is why Coach House Accents uses acrylonitrile styrene acrylate (ASA) plastic in their decorative hardware.

Unlike metal, plastic does not rust so you can count on your product looking like new for years to come. Compared to regular plastic, ASA is more durable, lightweight, and specifically designed to hold up in outdoor weather. This has made it a staple in the automotive industry, and a great durable material for decorative hardware.

Realistic Style

Coach House knows the importance of both durability and aesthetics, which is why they use quality materials that give their hardware a realistic edge that doesn’t look cheap like other brands. Their stylish and highly reflective simulated window panes look real from the curb, and the powder-coated crinkle finish on their handles and other decor make them an ideal choice for both modern and traditional garage door designs that keep a professional look that lasts!

Affordable Prices, Quality Products

While metal hardware can often cost a pretty penny, ASA plastic is known to be an affordable alternative. This is because plastics are one of the cheapest materials to obtain and use in manufacturing, unlike metals.

Increase Home Resell Value

Due to decorative hardware increasing a home’s curb appeal and by extension its property value, installing hardware can give a home a higher selling point and potentially lower monthly mortgage insurance!
