Are Your Garage Doors Green?

12/15/2013 Back To Blog

The human race can really be short-sighted if it chooses to and therefore we really have to reach the edge of the cliff before we finally realize that being green is our obligation and not merely an option. Suddenly, people make tremendous efforts to join the list of green advocates as manufacturers start producing more energy efficient goods and consumers develop an ecological consciousness. When it comes to garage door replacement people are rather skeptical about the new panel. They may have the inclination to purchase the greenest possible product, but are there really green doors or is it only a new marketing method to twist the truth?

How to discover the green level of your garage door:

People, who want to grow really long green roots in their lives, ought to look out of the box. When we talk about green issues, we ought to know that the procedure of manufacturing, the materials used, the whole process of elaborations and painting of the door panel as well as its final disposal all must follow strict ecological regulations. What's the purpose of getting garage door parts made of recycled materials if the process of their production would require a considerable amount of energy consumption? Don't you want to know where the old parts and doors end up to after they are tossed away? Are they really recycled or found at the side of a hill, which will pretty soon turn into a garbage bin of wasted materials? The figures of metal waste, which contaminates this planet, the water we drink and the food we eat, are already huge. Are there ways to deal with such problems? Are panels painted with powder coat?

Consumers have been reassured by many manufacturers that wood is made by composite lumber. If that is true, why don't all manufacturers follow the same path? Nowadays, we can purchase nice garage doors and support the eco-friendly industry. With that said, don't forget that you cannot find 100% green options. In addition, remember that the durability of components and materials are equally important because every garage door repair will cost in energy, too. Consumers are responsible to the extent that they should discover their options, reveal problems and urge manufacturers to work harder.
