The garage is an essential part of your home. It can do a lot more than park your vehicles. With the right garage upgrades, you can give your garage an inviting atmosphere and maximize your storage space. Here are five garage upgrades to consider making this spring.

Get your garage organized. Eliminate the clutter in your garage by using wall organizers or a pegboard. Cabinets are a good option for smaller items. Getting organized will immediately improve your garage’s appearance and make the most of your storage space.

Build a workshop. That other corner of the garage is perfect for home improvement projects. Create a work area by installing a workbench and equipping the space with tools. Consider adding windows to let in more natural light. You can even add extra features, such as a sink.

Insulate your garage. Add insulation to your garage, and you can enjoy it year-round, even during the coldest seasons. Insulation will also reduce your heating and cooling bills.  

Update the interior garage door. Don’t forget about the door between your home and the garage. Give it a new look with a fresh coat of paint. If it’s not in good condition, consider replacing it. You’ll improve the look of your garage and your home.

Upgrade your garage door. If your garage door is old, it might be time to consider replacing it outright. Installing a new garage door provides several benefits.

• Control your garage door from anywhere. With a “smart” garage door, you can open and close the door using your smartphone.
• It provides safety and security.
• Increased curb appeal
• A new garage door increases the value of your home.
