Choosing a large sectional door for a home in St Helens
What about oak-framed and timber buildings?
Doors can be fixed to timber frames, but the fixings and any packers have to suit the frame, and green oak moves as it dries. The survey checks the frame and the fixing positions.
How are lead times affected?
Non-standard sizes are made to order, so lead times can run longer than for common domestic sizes. The quote shows the expected lead time.

- High-lift tracksUse roof height so the door parks higher.
- Shaft or rail operatorSpecified to the door size.
