Garage Exterior Color Ideas

We build everything from small single-car garages to large garages that can hold many vehicles. The same variety applies to the exterior colors we offer. You can choose neutral shades for a classic look or bright hues to make a bold statement. With so many options, you can find the perfect color to match your style and needs.

Gray: Gray is a versatile garage color that matches almost any home siding, whether white, tan, or gray. It pairs well with other structures, and the dark gray hue stands out nicely. Gray is an excellent option if you're looking for a safe yet stylish choice. It adds a modern touch while maintaining a timeless appeal.

Red: Red is a bold color that makes your garage the focal point of your property. Many homeowners love accentuating their red garage with white trim around the doors and windows, creating a striking contrast. This color is trendy for those who prefer a rustic style, giving your garage a classic barn-like appearance. If you want your garage to stand out and add a touch of charm to your property, red is an excellent choice.

White: You might not usually describe a garage as elegant, but with beautiful white siding, that's precisely the right word. White gives your garage a clean, sophisticated look that stands out. Pairing white siding with subtle red trim and light gray shingles creates a striking contrast that enhances the overall appearance. This combination is excellent for adding a bit of class and brightness to your property. If you want a crisp and elegant garage, white is an excellent choice.

Brown: Rich dark brown is an exciting and unexpected color choice for a garage. It adds warmth and depth to your property. Notice how well the brown siding pairs with dark-colored garage doors, creating a unified and cohesive look. This color scheme is perfect for those who want a unique yet harmonious appearance for their garage. If you want to make a statement while maintaining a natural feel, brown is an excellent option.

Wood: For a distinctly rustic style, consider a garage with unpainted wooden siding. This choice gives your garage the charming look of a classic horse barn while still providing the functionality of a two-car garage. The natural wood gives your garage a warm and unique look. The green metal roof also introduces a nice pop of color, enhancing the overall aesthetic. Wood is a fantastic option for a garage that blends rustic charm with practicality.

Two-Tone: One of the most eye-catching styles is the two-tone wainscoting look. This garage workshop stands out thanks to its unique dual color scheme on the metal siding.

These examples are just a glimpse of the garage colors we can create for you. If you have a different color in mind, let us know. Even if we still need to build it, we're always excited to take on custom projects and bring your vision to life!

 

Other Key Custom Touches for Your Garage

While you have endless options for exterior garage colors, you can add many other custom touches to your modular garage. Here are some popular accessories homeowners love:

  • A Lean-To: This add-on, inspired by horse barns, lets you stay dry while working outside your garage.
  • Second Story/Loft: Adding a second story or loft provides extra storage space and can serve as a living area above the garage.
  • Extra Windows: More windows mean more natural light, which is excellent if you plan to spend a lot of time working in your garage.
  • Cupolas: These add-ons give your garage a rustic look and provide extra ventilation.

These are just a few ideas to enhance your garage and make it your own.
