What should Marlow homeowners know about ribbed sectional doors?
Fine ribs or large ribs?
Fine ribs give a busy, textured look that suits most homes and hides small marks well. Large ribs give a calmer, more architectural look with fewer lines, and suit modern houses and wide doors.
Which surface texture?
Ribbed panels are usually offered with a stucco-embossed texture, a woodgrain texture, or a smooth finish. Textured finishes hide fingerprints and light scratches better; smooth finishes look sharper but show marks more.
