What should Gerrards Cross homeowners know about insulated sectional doors?
How long do the panels last?
Galvanised and factory-coated steel panels are made for many years of outdoor use. Look after the coating with an occasional wash, keep the bottom seal clear of grit and leaves, and book a service every year or so to keep springs and cables in order.
How much difference do seals make?
Panels are only half the story. A good door has a flexible bottom seal that follows uneven floors, brush or rubber side seals, a head seal and finger-safe joints with gaskets between sections. A badly sealed insulated door can lose more heat round the edges than through the panels, so seals are checked and set on fitting day.
Which options are available in Gerrards Cross?
- Any finishRibbed, flush, cassette, woodgrain and coloured finishes are all available with insulated panels.
- Window insertsAdd glazed inserts for daylight; they slightly reduce thermal performance.
- Seals all roundBottom, side and head seals, plus gaskets between sections.
- Panel thicknessTypically 40 to 42 mm double-skin, or thicker thermally broken panels on premium ranges.

Thicker panels can need slightly more headroom. Where space is tight, a low-headroom track or a side-sectional door may suit better.
