What should Urmston homeowners know about ribbed sectional 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.

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 options are available in Urmston?

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