Key questions about glazed sectional doors in Portslade
Are glazed doors secure?
Glazed panels are generally polycarbonate or safety glazing, depending on the range. A glazed door is still locked by the operator or a lock, but it naturally shows more than a solid door, which is one reason obscured glazing is popular.
Window inserts or full vision?
Window inserts are the simple choice: a row of glazed panels in one section of an otherwise solid door. A full-vision door is a different construction, an aluminium frame with glazing throughout, which lets in far more light and makes a design statement.
What can you choose for your Portslade garage?
- Window insert rowsRectangular or decorative inserts in one section.
- Full-vision aluminiumGlazed throughout in an aluminium frame.
- Obscured infillsFrosted or tinted for privacy.
- Frame coloursBlack, anthracite, silver and RAL colours.
