Why choose a sectional door?

Sectional garage doors have a series of advantages that are beneficial to any type of property. The first of these is their unique construction and operation – the sections travel vertically with no kick-out from the opening before essentially turning a corner and travelling horizontally on a suspended track back into the garage. No kick-out during the opening travel cycle means that you can park a car almost touching the face of the door, which is especially handy for customers with a short drive.

Depending on the gear type, a full drive-through height is also achievable, ideal where the garage is used to house a van or high vehicle such as a people carrier or SUV. The panel is up to 67mm thick with foam insulation sandwiched between a strong steel front and rear skin, making it not only perfect for heat retention but also extremely strong and secure. In fact, a number of the doors are available with the Secured By Design (SBD) accreditation, which is an official police initiative promoting improved security in building products.

Additionally, all of our sectional garage doors offer sufficient weather resistance and come in many distinctive panelled and ribbed designs, giving you the choice of a wide range of stunning models. We only work with manufacturers who produce doors of the highest quality and are proud to carry state-of-the-art designs from the likes of Hormann and Garador.

Insulated sectional garage doors

In addition to being used as storage spaces, modern garages now play host to offices, playrooms, workshops and gyms. With the installation of a sectional garage door, you can make use of this model’s highly insulative properties to give your working or leisure space the warmth it deserves and ensure that it is kept free from damp or damaging conditions.

We have models that will achieve a U Value as low as 1.0 W/M2K, which is perfect for protecting your belongings and maintaining a constant temperature within the garage. It will also help to heat up any adjacent rooms, allowing you to reduce your household bills in the long run.

UPGRADE TO AN ELECTRIC SECTIONAL GARAGE DOOR

Don’t forget, like all of our high-quality garage doors, sectional doors can either be manually or electrically operated. Electrical operators like the Hörmann SupraMatic will offer increased locking functionality and give your insulated sectional garage doors an even greater element of security. Automated garages are easy to open and close via remote control, which means there’ll be no need to leave your car when returning home for the day.

Crucially, most of our sectional garage doors are capable of achieving Secured By Design accreditation, a police-supported initiative that works to improve building security.

Surface finishes for sectional doors

Sectional garage doors feature sturdy rubber weather seals on all sides of the door to help retain heat and keep the elements outside. Aside from being practical, our range is easy on the eye and comes in a variety of maintenance-free finishes, styles, designs and colours, including ribbed and panelled variations. We offer a wide range of finishes including Woodgrain, Silkgrain, Sandgrain, Slategrain and the popular timber effect Decograin.

Colours

Our sectional garage doors come in an exciting range of colours to suit all homes and tastes. There are also a number of timber effect finishes available when you purchase one of our sectional garage doors, enabling you to add some originality to your garage door opening. Whilst we offer a range of standard colours we are also able to accommodate many special colour preferences.

Thermoframe

Garador’s exclusive thermal garage door frame option offers up to 15% improved insulation on premium doors, providing even greater thermal efficiency to your home.

Security

Rollers captured within the steel channels form multi-point resistance, aiding the prevention of forced entry. When coupled with the SupraMatic automation kit, a patented anti-lift device within the unit upgrades the security even further. It meets the Secured By Design accreditation, the official police security initiative.

An overhead garage door with separate sections

A sectional garage door is made up of separate segments rather than a single panel. The panels rise vertically before travelling horizontally and sitting at the top of the garage. This means that no driveway space is lost and ensures a full opening drive through width with extra room for wider vehicles such as 4x4s and MPVs. Insulated, double-skinned sectional garage doors also possess strong security qualities and will make it more difficult for thieves to access your property.

Matching Entrance Doors

You can create an impressive entrance to your home by matching your entrance door to your sectional garage door. We have a variety of contemporary entrance and garage door styles, with a range of surface finishes, colours, glass, door furniture and locking systems.
