01 / WARMTH & CHARACTER

Wooden garage doors.
Warmth in every detail.

Wooden garage doors bring texture and character to a property. Depending on the design and supplier, profiles may include traditional raised-panel, block-style or horizontal slatted patterns.

Meranti is a commonly used timber option. Like any exterior woodwork, a wooden garage door needs suitable protective finishes and regular checks for weather exposure, movement and wear.

Steel sectional doors.
Clean, lasting lines.

Steel sectional garage doors combine a tidy appearance with reliable movement when correctly specified and installed. Depending on the range, coated steel finishes can include Chromadek-style colour-coated steel or Aluzinc-coated options.

Profiles may feature broad horizontal lines or block panels. Colour selection, panel thickness, finishes and insulation vary with the manufacturer, so we can help discuss an appropriate specification for your opening.

03 / PRACTICAL & COMPACT

Roll-up garage doors.
A practical solution.

Roll-up garage doors use a flexible curtain that rolls into a coil above the opening. They can be a practical choice for many single garages where a straightforward solution is preferred.

A commonly supplied reference size is around 2,500 mm wide × 2,150 mm high, but the actual opening and available headroom need to be checked. Colours and timber-look finishes depend on the available product range.

FOR THE DOOR YOU ALREADY HAVE

Not every garage door
needs replacing.

A door that has become noisy, heavy or unreliable may need adjustment, servicing or replacement parts rather than a completely new installation. The right recommendation depends on its condition.

MATERIALS & OPENING STYLES

Compare the options.
Choose with confidence.

A garage-door material and the way it opens are different decisions. Compare common designs, their appearance and what to check before choosing.

DOOR STYLELOOK & FEELKEY CONSIDERATIONS
Wooden sectionalNatural texture, traditional or contemporary profilesProtective finish and ongoing timber maintenance
Steel sectionalClean lines, block profiles and painted finishesPanel specification, coating, corrosion exposure and fit
Tip-up (timber or steel)A single, solid panel that tilts up and backOutward swing during opening, driveway space, springs and mounting clearance
Steel roll-upSimple, compact and practicalHeadroom, curtain type, operation and guide condition

Sectional doors use hinged panels that travel overhead. Tip-up doors move as one panel and swing outward as they open; roll-up doors coil above the opening. Available designs, clearances and materials must be confirmed for your property.

MEASURE FOR THE RIGHT FIT

Garage door sizes.
Start with your opening.

Start with the opening, not only the size of the old door. Correct measurements include clear opening width and height, available side room, headroom and the intended opening mechanism.

The measurements shown are examples from commonly quoted ranges, not universal manufacturing standards. Width, height and mounting space vary by door type and supplier; the opening should be measured before ordering. Made-to-measure doors may require extra lead time.

BEYOND THE DOOR PANELS

Parts that matter.
Performance beyond the panel.

Good operation depends on more than appearance. Hardware, seals and automation should suit the type and condition of the door.

01 / COUNTERBALANCE

Springs & cables

Springs help counterbalance the door; cables support controlled movement. Loose, broken or frayed components require professional attention.

Rollers, tracks & seals

Worn rollers and damaged tracks can affect movement. Bottom weather seals help reduce dust, drafts and rain ingress but do not guarantee a completely airtight garage.

03 / CONVENIENCE

Automation & motors

Motor selection depends on the door type, balance, weight, usage and safety features. An opener is not a substitute for repairing a faulty door.

GOOD QUESTIONS, CLEAR ANSWERS

Garage door questions.
Useful answers.

Helpful information about garage door styles, sizes, motor compatibility, servicing and repairs.

Which garage door material is best for my property?

Wood provides a traditional natural finish but needs ongoing care. Coated steel sectional doors are a practical choice where a lower-maintenance painted finish is preferred. The right choice depends on your opening, style, budget and maintenance preferences.

What is the difference between sectional, tip-up and roll-up garage doors?

A sectional door has hinged panels that move overhead along tracks. A tip-up door is one rigid panel that pivots up and outward before resting overhead. A roll-up door uses a curtain that coils above the opening. The best option depends on headroom, driveway clearance, opening size and suitable motor hardware.

Can my existing garage door be repaired instead of replaced?

Often, yes. Springs, cables, rollers, tracks, hinges and some panels may be repairable or replaceable. The door should first be assessed for damage, compatibility and safe operation; severe structural damage can make replacement more appropriate.

What are the standard single and double garage door sizes?

Common reference sizes are approximately 2,500 × 2,170 mm for a single sectional door and 5,000 × 2,170 mm for a double sectional door. Actual sizes vary by manufacturer and opening; measure on site before ordering.

Can I automate an existing garage door?

Many existing doors can be automated if they are in suitable working condition and a compatible motor is available. A technician should first assess the door type, balance, hardware and available clearance.

Can a damaged wooden or steel garage door panel be replaced?

Sometimes. Panel replacement depends on the manufacturer, profile, finish, compatible parts and condition of the rest of the door. Photos can help with an initial enquiry, but inspection may be needed.

Do garage doors need servicing?

Yes. Springs, cables, hinges, rollers, tracks and seals should be periodically checked according to the door manufacturer’s guidance. Do not adjust high-tension springs or cables yourself.

Can you make custom-size garage doors?

Custom-size options may be available depending on the door type and supplier. They normally require measuring and can take longer than standard-size doors.
