Insulated sectional garage doors in Faversham

Key questions about insulated sectional doors in Faversham

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.

Is it worth it on a detached garage?

On a detached garage used only for a car, a standard double-skin door is usually enough. If you keep tools, bikes, a freezer or stock in there, or you use it as a workspace, the warmer, drier conditions are worth the extra cost.
