Ribbed sectional garage doors: what matters for Gateshead garages

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.

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.
