What should Durham homeowners know about ribbed sectional doors?

Is a ribbed door the cheapest option?

Ribbed designs in white are often the entry point to a range, which makes them good value, but premium ranges offer ribbed panels too.

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.

Which options are available in Durham?

  • Fine rib (M-rib)Several ribs per section.
