Choosing a glazed sectional door for a home in Birmingham
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 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.
Which options are available in Birmingham?
- Obscured infillsFrosted or tinted for privacy.
- Window insert rowsRectangular or decorative inserts in one section.
- Full-vision aluminiumGlazed throughout in an aluminium frame.
- Frame coloursBlack, anthracite, silver and RAL colours.
