Over a century ago, the carriage house WAS the garage for those with the affluence to own their own horse and buggies (commonly known as "the carriage trade"). Swing-out, side-hinged heavy double doors served as the entryway. You can still see some of these doors in preserved, historic American homes of the era.

But as the automobile took the place of the horse and buggy, swing-out doors went out with, well, buggy whips. And for many years, so did the classic look of the carriage house doors.

Today, garage door manufacturers have latched onto the carriage house look, adding custom colors, trim and windows that truly allow you to customize the look of your home. One of the hottest trends in garage doors today, carriage house doors reflect the style of yesteryear with the conveniences of today – sectional doors that lift and close vertically. Paired with a modern garage door opener and accessories, today's carriage house door brings back the classic look of days gone by with 21st century conveniences.

The manufacturers listed below can give your home a classic – and classy – look.
