Guidelines for Changes or Repairs to Garage Doors:
Please use these guidelines for replacing or repairing one of these items on your property. Any time you alter or change the existing condition in any way, it requires a design review application. Provided that you make these changes for repair or maintenance, then a DRA is not required.
Garage Door Repairs and Replacements:
The following shall assist Homeowners in the design and placement of garage doors. The documents are intended to offer guidance; final location and design approval shall be obtained from the Community Architect.
- The Design Guidelines require all “Residential garage doors shall be made of wood, embossed hardwood or wood veneer“.
- Steel doors shall be permitted in retail and commercial office buildings ONLY.
- Citizens have requested permission to replace wood garage doors with doors constructed of metal and fiberglass.
Alternate garage doors constructed of metal or fiberglass will be permitted provided they comply with the following conditions:
- Painted: Garage doors shall be pre-finished or painted to match existing garage door color.
- Panel Profile: Garage door panels shall be recessed to provide a shadow line consistent with that found on a wood door. All garage door components shall be painted as noted above. Flush panel garage doors are prohibited.
- Panel Quantity/Layout: Garage door panel layout shall match the existing door panel layout “X” number high by “Y” number wide.
- Approved Garage Doors: The community architect shall maintain a list of approved garage doors as they are submitted for approval by homeowners.
