Faux wood is a urethane-based product that's created by pressing wood pieces together in a rubber mold to imprint a wood grain on its face. While faux wood garage doors maintain the sophisticated character of real wood, these doors require much less maintenance, are rot-resistant, and hold paint better.
Because they're made from water-based, sustainable materials, faux wood garage doors are also an eco-friendly choice. Plus, they can withstand high temperatures created by sun exposure and darker paint colors, which can be problematic for some other materials.
Artisan currently offers three faux wood garage doors: American Farmhouse, Quartet, and Rhapsody. You can learn more about our custom faux wood garage doors below.
Vinyl carriage garage doors are a great choice for homeowners who are looking for an affordable option that's both low maintenance and durable. Unlike wood composite or faux wood, vinyl doesn't contain any wood byproducts. However, it can still be shaped and routed using standard woodworking tools.
Because they're lighter than solid wood, vinyl doors reduce stress on hardware, springs, and openers. They're also naturally insect-, moisture-, and rot-resistant, making them ideal for humid climates. Best of all, vinyl doors require minimal maintenance – simply wipe them down a few times a year.
Artisan currently offers two vinyl carriage garage doors for sale: Prelude 2, Symphony. You can learn more about these products below.
