Park In Style: Parking Gate Designs For Your House

Parking gates are very important to keep your car safe while they also have an aesthetic value in the house. Imagine an old American styled glass gate or a minimalist high-tech gate; you can feel the vibe, you can imagine what type of car would be inside, and you can expect what type of person drives it. This is why it’s important to consider what type of parking gate design you choose for your house. The designs for parking gates are now more diverse than ever, offering a wide variety of options to suit your home’s aesthetics and functionality. From classical shutters to integrated doors, the possibilities are endless, each design focusing on the experience it provides. Here are some of the trending car parking gate designs in Indian homes:-

Sectional Parking Gate Design

If you are a regular user of wagons and hatchbacks and love the simple design of cars offering feasibility and efficiency, then sectional parking gates might be the best option to match the vibe of your car and house. Composed of multiple horizontal panels hinged together, open vertically, sliding smoothly on the track, and curving up to rest parallel to the ceiling, these doors are easy to function and do not take too much of your space. These doors come in various materials- wood, steel, and aluminium- and can be customised with different finishes. They have a very seamless modernistic functionality which makes it feel the perfect design, flexible for each and every type of house, just like your wagon. The look of this type of door does not shout its presence, it’s simple and blends with the whole architecture easily.

Glasses of Old American Style

The beauty of this garage door design can only be appreciated from inside the garage. The windows on these doors are placed strategically to let the light flood inside the garage, creating a very warm atmosphere. This type of parking door design is best for people who use their car garages for more than just parking, they might have a small creative space in there where they self-customise their car with spray paints and have a whole customisation kit in there or love cleaning them on sunday mornings. And it’s not just the doors; you can even add windows to the walls in vintage American style.

Classic Rolling Shutter Design

The classical rolling shutter design not only looks very rustic and vintage but also maximises space efficiency by creating more headroom, unlike raising shutter gates and providing more ground space than hinged double doors. Imagine your old mountain bike or your rustic jeep unveiling itself as you pull the shutter open slowly. From the material to the functioning to the sound of the shutter opening, all of them create the ambience in the majesty of your classical vehicle.

Raised Parking Door Design

This design style uses the game of light and shadow to create the vibe and beauty of your parking space. You put a spotlight just above the door to let the light hit these classical raised patterns, creating shadows and giving depth to the whole design. The design range in these panels varies from classical to geometrical shapes and abstract designs, which can be arranged the way you want the light to be shaped. You can also put in different technologies to alter the functionality of these doors. You can use mechanical shutter machinery or smart locks and buttons to transform these classical garage doors into more stylish and contemporary ones.

Modern- Minimalist Garage Door Design

If you love driving those sleek, luxurious sedans, then this modern minimalist car garage design is definitely created to match your gleaming car and accentuate the luxury of the whole space itself. The luxury of these gates is amplified by the way they open, whether they unveil mechanically or slide automatically. You can decorate the space with ceiling lighting, filling the place with warmth and lavishness. The lighting in these doors creates depth and equips the place with mood and feel.

Brutalist Wooden Garage Door Design

This rustic yet modern wooden design creates an illusion of maximisation while being minimalist in design. You would need a big panel and design it with a simple solid gate with intricate raw texture, making the gate feel heavy and even bigger. If you are a collector of SUVs and off-road cars, then this might be the perfect design for you. Your SUV would look even more majestic and huge from this robust door. Imagine how it would feel when you are leaving this space for an off-roading adventure, creating the mood from your home itself.

Garage Door Design With Art

If you are a street-culture fan and love those violent, angry, abstract graffiti designs, then go on. It’s your garage door, and no one's going to stop you from putting your creativity here. Go as wild as you can and show the passion and adrenaline you feel when playing those car racing games on your laptop. This garage door could become an exterior showpiece of your character; imagine people entering your driveway and seeing this design and the impression it will make even before really entering your house. You can use sliding automatic doors here, which will break the design very cinematically when opened, or you can also go for rolling shutter doors that give a rustic feel decorated by your graffiti.

Also, if you are not an artist but love the alley graffiti designs you have watched in classic Hollywood films, you can create your design digitally and have it laminated on the doors.

Conclusion

The car games you have played in childhood, the cars you used to watch in raunchy action films, the garages, and the vibe of the places you always wanted to acquire as a passionate child should be catered to as you buy your own car. If you are celebrating it by creating a whole garage, then it must share the same vibe and feel you used to fantasise about as a child. Let it be those heavy double hinged door gates or sleek and modern automatic rolling up shutters, the car parking gate design must make a statement and match the grandeur of the car you drive. You can even go on to design the whole car parking area with complementing designs, to match the aesthetics of the whole space.
