When it comes to Homeowners Associations (HOAs), people do in fact judge a book by its cover. Board members and residents alike hold their neighborhood to high standards, and every home is crucial to upholding a uniform look and strong curb appeal. It can be a challenge to decide on a neighborhood’s exterior aesthetic that is pleasing to the eye, affordable to install, and long-lasting. That’s why Coach House Accents window overlays offer a uniform look, affordable price, durability, and protection against theft. Read on to learn how to increase the overall curb appeal of your neighborhood while minimizing costs for each homeowner.

Cost Effective and Energy Saving

Installing traditional glass windows on an existing garage door can be tedious and costly. Many glass windows also let drafts into a garage, making attached garages less energy efficient as outdoor temperatures leak indoors. While some window options can be insulated, they are more expensive and still vulnerable to breakage.

Extreme Weather and Security

A broken garage window is both an eyesore and a safety risk, especially in regions where storms, wind, or airborne debris are common. Coach House Accents window overlays are made with shatter-proof automotive-grade materials that protect against these hazards while maintaining a clean appearance from the curb.

Another benefit is the highly reflective pane material that mimics real windows but prevents outsiders from seeing into the garage. This helps protect stored valuables like tools and lawn equipment. With residential properties making up about 72% of all burglary offenses in the U.S., it pays to be cautious.

Window Overlay Dimensions and Installation

Each window overlay measures 45-1/4 inches high by 16-5/8 inches wide and is designed to fit most standard raised panel and entry-level carriage house garage doors made by brands such as Clopay, Wayne Dalton, and CHI. These include both short and long panel doors in widths of 8, 9, 16, and 18 feet. It is important to measure your garage door before purchasing to ensure compatibility, as door models and panel dimensions can vary.

Installation is simple and only requires drilling into the garage door panels. Each kit includes rubber washers to seal the drilled areas between the window and the garage door, which prevents water intrusion and helps reduce rusting of the exposed metal.

Coach House Accessories

Window overlays are just the beginning. If your HOA wants a more stylized look—such as a coach house or barn style—Coach House also offers additional garage door accessories like handles, strap hinges, knockers, and more. These screw-in decorative accents allow each homeowner to add a rustic or elegant touch to their garage without sacrificing uniformity. Options include everything from classic Jamestown pull handles to regal lion head knockers.
