Choosing a glazed sectional door for a home in Welwyn Garden City
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 about privacy?
Frosted, obscured or tinted glazing infills keep the light while hiding what is inside. On full-vision doors this is the usual choice for homes.
