Cassette and Georgian sectional garage doors – example of the door type

What should South Ockendon homeowners know about cassette sectional doors?

Can a cassette door be insulated and electric?

Yes. Cassette panels are usually double-skin and insulated, and the door can be motorised like any other sectional door.

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.
