Key questions about ribbed sectional doors in Manchester
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.
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.
What can you choose for your Manchester garage?
- TexturesStucco, woodgrain or smooth.
- Fine rib (M-rib)Several ribs per section.
- WindowsOptional inserts in one section.
- Large rib (L-rib)One wide rib per section.
