Key questions about side sectional doors in Borehamwood
When does a side sectional beat an overhead door?
If you have a low ceiling, a beam just above the opening, ceiling storage or a loft hatch you want to keep using, a side-sliding door avoids the ceiling altogether. It needs clear wall space on one side instead.
How does it compare on price?
Side sectional doors are more specialised, so they usually cost more than an equivalent overhead sectional door.
