What should Leigh homeowners know about ribbed sectional doors?

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.

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.

What can you choose for your Leigh garage?

  • WindowsOptional inserts in one section.
  • TexturesStucco, woodgrain or smooth.
  • Fine rib (M-rib)Several ribs per section.
  • Large rib (L-rib)One wide rib per section.
