Contemporary and Modern are design styles that are particularly similar in many ways. Our Contemporary Custom Garage Doors are specifically designed and manufactured to fit the minimalistic lines of modern and contemporary architecture styles. Sometimes the most beautiful things in life come in simplicity and our Contemporary Garage Doors are just proof that simplicity can be elegant, sophisticated and architecturally attractive. Dynamic Garage Door uses uniquely diverse materials to accomplish garage door designs that work with the existing architecture. These custom wood garage doors were built out of grade "A" clear cedar which softens the harshness of the architectural elements of this contemporary home in Danville, CA. The client wanted to highlight some of the color variations within their stone veneer pieces while keeping a uniform color that would blend in with the home's gray, earthy tones. To accomplish this we used a gray-toned oil finish which can easily be maintained by the client or a skilled handyman saving the client maintenance costs associated with multiple layer finished doors. Simply freshen up the doors with a rubbed-on coat of oil in a couple of years and the doors will look like new once again! There are oil finish colors in an infinite selection of colors to work with any home's existing color schemes while still allowing the natural grain of the wood to blossom through adding character, softening harsh materials such as rock and stucco and making an inviting statement in a clean, fine-lined style that only Dynamic Garage Doors offer.

Santa Cruz, CA - This custom architectural garage door and gate project in the Northern California area was designed in a Spanish Colonial style and crafted by hand to capture that charming appeal of old world door craftsmanship found throughout Europe. The custom home was exquisitely built without sparing a single detail that would engulf the Spanish Colonial authentic architectural design. Beautiful, hand-selected terracotta roof tiles and white plastered walls just like in historical homes in Colonial Spain were used for this home construction, not to mention the wooden beam detailing particularly on the bay window above the garage. All these authentic Spanish Colonial architectural elements made this home the perfect backdrop for our custom Spanish Colonial Garage Doors and Gates.

Featured in the May 2012 Marin AIA Home Tour, this 4,000 sf. remodeled hillside home was designed to improve the curb appeal of the exterior while the majority of the work focused on opening up the interior spaces to the views beyond. The new façade glows with a shimmering new standing seam metal roof, chimney cap and aluminum and sandblasted glass garage door. The entry has a new stone floor; walnut and sandblasted glass french doors and subtle lighting highlight new planting areas. Photo Credit: John Sutton Photography

With the look of painted wood, these white carriage house garage doors are full of charm in a low maintenance product. They have the convenience of today's overhead garage door technology; however, they're designed to mimic the look of vintage 'swing out' doors. Notice the decorative handles, strap hinges, 'X' panel pattern and arched windows too! Photo Credits: Pro-Lift Garage Doors in GA

Just like in the french louvered door we have added a semi-gloss black iron window frame over tempered clear glass. One of the benefits of a reclaimed wood garage door is that the aged wood comes from old trees that provide longer wider boards. As shown in this project the long wide planks make this modern garage door fit nicely with this Newport Modern house. There are several benefits of using reclaimed timber. Because we live in a world where supply is ever shrinking as we diminish our natural resources, in addition to, over-forestation and the ever growing environmental concerns of global warming or pollutants and wood Beatles killing 15 million trees in our forests of the past decade. Using reclaimed wood helps to preserve our forests and reduces the need for cutting young trees to keep up with the growing demand for timber. The other benefit of using the old timber from barns and old structures has to do with the maturation of the tree originally. Back in the day the only cut mature trees that had reached full potential growth. This wood tends to be stringer and less likely to split or fracture. What they call virgin timber is young trees that are softer and have a greater potential to split. Using reclaimed timber give you yet one more added benefit too, the wood has been aged in an environment that allows the wood to naturally preserve and tarnish with unique characteristics. The wood in old buildings has expanded and contracted constantly over the years and has fully dried out, making it more durable and less prone to warping and splitting. Old wood also tends to have a dense grain making it more stable. Those are natural design elements that make each reclaimed door different! Not one door will be exactly the same. Since the wood has naturally preserved and tarnished then all you have to do is apply a clear coat to the door and you’re done! Thus, leaving your garage, a beautiful naturally finished garage door, that is full of rustic beauty and charm. The wood has done what the wood is going to do and colors and scars tell the 100 year plus, history. What could be more original and charming than a reclaimed wood garage door from Ziegler! You should always remember that reclaimed timber is itself, a finite resource. There are only so many old structures out there to source the wood from and eventually these too will become unavailable. In the meantime, reclaimed wood provides a valuable source of characterful material for farmhouse, traditional and rustic garage doors, and gates and shutters too! Ziegler is one of the oldest wood door manufactures in California and now body does it better than the originator of style and design.
