What should Welwyn Garden City homeowners know about cassette sectional doors?
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.
How many cassettes will I get?
The number of cassettes per row depends on the door width and the range. The manufacturer sets the layout so cassettes stay well proportioned.
