Three New Year’s Resolutions to Keep Your Garage in Top Condition

A brand new year means one thing: it’s time to start thinking about your resolutions for the year ahead. Each year, people set long lists of resolutions they plan to stick to in order to improve their lives, from eating more healthily to learning a new skill or taking up a new hobby. If you’re currently thinking about your own New Year’s resolutions for the year ahead, don’t forget to include your home too – or more specifically, your garage.

Whether your garage is a place you tend to avoid or it’s your absolute pride and joy, these following New Year’s resolutions will help you to keep it in top condition.

Set up a cleaning and maintenance schedule

Just like anything, your garage needs to be properly looked after if you want to keep it in top condition. At the start of the year, take the time to put together a cleaning and maintenance schedule for the year ahead. It’s worth giving your garage a good clean every few months to keep it sparkling and free of any dirt, damp or mould.

You should also carry out regular maintenance, such as regularly inspecting your garage for signs of damage and lubricating the moving parts of your garage door to ensure it continues to operate smoothly and efficiently.

Invest in your garage security

A garage with poor security could be a threat to your home, and therefore it’s important you invest in your garage security. No matter what you keep in there, whether it be your car or your garden furniture, it’s crucial your garage is secure and your possessions are safe. In addition to a high-quality strong lock, consider investing in a garage door monitor and motion-sensored lighting too.

Upgrade your garage door

Whether your garage door is damaged and broken or you can’t remember the last time it was replaced, the New Year could be the perfect time for an upgrade. There are endless benefits to upgrading your garage door, from improving the security of your garage to boosting the overall kerb appeal of your property. There are plenty of different designs, styles and colours available to match the aesthetic of your property and bring your house to life.
