Single sectional garage doors: what matters for Buxton garages
Why replace an up-and-over with a single sectional?
An up-and-over door tilts out and up, so you cannot park close to it and it eats into the width of the opening. A sectional door lifts straight up, keeps the full width usable, seals better and is easier to motorise.
How long does the job take?
Swapping a single door is normally a one-day job: the old door comes out, the opening is prepared, and the new door is fitted, balanced, tested and handed over.
What can you choose for your Buxton garage?
- Manual or electricManual lock and handle, or operator with remotes.
- Window insertsDaylight panels in one section.
- ColoursStandard colours or RAL colours on most ranges.
- Insulated panelsDouble-skin panels with foam core.
