What should Basildon 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.

Do ribs affect strength?

The pressed ribs stiffen the steel skin slightly, which helps wide doors stay flat. Insulated cores do most of the stiffening on double-skin panels.
