Cassette and Georgian sectional garage doors: what matters for Bishop Auckland garages
Why pick a cassette design?
Cassettes break the door into a grid, which echoes panelled front doors and sash windows. On a traditional house, a cassette door looks at home in a way a plain ribbed door sometimes does not.
Which colours suit a cassette door?
White is the classic choice, with cream, heritage greens, blues and woodgrain effects popular on period homes.
What can you choose for your Bishop Auckland garage?
- Window cassettesGlazed inserts in the top row on some ranges.
- Heritage coloursMany RAL colours to order.
- Cassette layoutGrid set by the manufacturer for the width.
- Woodgrain textureAdds a painted-timber feel.
