Adding windows to a garage door can enhance natural light and significantly improve the door’s aesthetic appeal, making the garage feel more open and inviting. However, it’s important to consider that adding windows may slightly reduce the door’s insulation value, as glass typically has lower insulating properties compared to solid door materials. To mitigate this, you can choose double-pane or insulated glass options to maintain better energy efficiency.

Security is another consideration when adding windows. Large or low-quality windows could pose a security risk by allowing potential intruders to see inside the garage or easily break the glass. To address these concerns, opt for small, high-mounted windows that limit visibility into the garage. Additionally, using strong, shatter-resistant materials like tempered or laminated glass can enhance security.
