What should Arnold homeowners know about large sectional doors?
Is a domestic operator enough?
Not always. Larger, heavier doors need an operator rated for the size, and very large doors may use a shaft-mounted operator instead of a ceiling rail.
When is a door oversized?
Anything taller than about 2.3 metres or wider than a typical double, roughly 5 metres, usually moves into larger spring and track specifications. Motorhome garages often need heights of 3 metres or more.
What can you choose for your Arnold garage?
- Heavier springsSpring sets sized to the larger door weight.
- High-lift tracksUse roof height so the door parks higher.
- Vision rowsWindows across one section.
- Shaft or rail operatorSpecified to the door size.
