Key questions about sectional doors with a pass door in South Shields

Is a separate side door better?

If there is space for a side door, it is usually easier to use and keeps the main door simpler. Where there is not, a pass door is the neat answer.

Are there threshold limits?

A pass door sits within the bottom section, so there is a threshold to step over. Some ranges offer low-threshold designs that are easier to use, but it is never as level as a separate side door.

What can you choose for your South Shields garage?

  • Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
  • Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
  • Hinge sideLeft or right hand.
  • Lock and handleMatched to the door.
