What should you know about glazed sectional doors in West Glamorgan?
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.
Do windows reduce insulation?
Yes, slightly. Glazed panels lose more heat than insulated steel panels, and full-vision doors lose more again unless thermally broken frames and insulated glazing are specified.
Are full-vision doors heavier?
Aluminium and glazing can weigh more than steel panels of the same size, so springs and operators are sized to suit.
Which options can you choose?
- Frame coloursBlack, anthracite, silver and RAL colours.
- Window insert rowsRectangular or decorative inserts in one section.
- Obscured infillsFrosted or tinted for privacy.
- Full-vision aluminiumGlazed throughout in an aluminium frame.
