Insulated sectional garage doors in Bangor (Gwynedd)

Insulated sectional garage doors: what matters for Bangor (Gwynedd) garages

What thickness should you pick?

Most domestic sectional doors use panels of about 40 to 42 mm. Doors sold as thermally broken use thicker panels, often around 67 mm, with a break between the inner and outer skins so cold is not conducted straight through. The thicker option costs more and needs a little more headroom, so it makes most sense on integral or heated garages.

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.
