What should Farnborough homeowners know about low headroom sectional doors?

Are there trade-offs?

Low headroom systems can cost more, can need a little more depth inside the garage, and some operators need a specific bracket or a different drive. We check all of this at survey.

What if there is almost no headroom?

If even a low headroom kit will not fit, a side sectional door, which parks against a wall, or a roller door are the alternatives we will talk you through.

What can you choose for your Farnborough garage?

  • Low headroom trackTighter top radius so the door parks close to the ceiling.
  • Rear-mounted springsMoves the spring shaft away from the opening.
  • Matched operatorOperator and bracket suited to the low headroom set-up.
