Garador Up & Over Doors
A timeless classic refined with modern security engineering. Available in steel, GRP, and natural timber finishes, such as the Addlington timber and Arden fibreglass models, Garador up-and-over doors come with your choice of canopy or retractable lifting mechanisms. Retractable models feature anti-drop safety systems and full pre-framing, making them the ideal choice for seamless electric automation.
Garador Sectional Doors
Save space and transform your home's exterior with vertically opening sectional doors that allow you to park right up to the door leaf:
- Garador LPU 42 & Autodor Models: Featuring double-skinned 42 mm PU-foam-insulated panels, these doors offer excellent thermal retention and weather sealing, keeping attached garages dry and energy-efficient.
- Surface Finishes & Designs: Choose from clean linear designs (small, medium, or large ribs) as well as Planar and Duragrain timber effects or traditional raised panel motifs to complement modern builds and period renovations alike.
Garador Roller Garage Doors
Free up valuable overhead ceiling space inside your garage with the Garador GaraRoll roller door. Constructed from insulated aluminium slats with weather seals, the GaraRoll coils neatly above the door frame. Integrated spring-tension technology reduces motor strain for extended life, while a reliable manual release system ensures you are never locked out in a power outage.
Garador Side-Hinged Garage Doors
Ideal for garages used frequently for pedestrian access, workshops, or bicycle storage, such as the popular Ascot and Ashton Chevron designs. Garador side-hinged doors feature twin-walled insulated options, 50/50 or asymmetrical split openings, and solid perimeter framing for long-lasting durability without having to lift a full garage panel.
