Choosing a woodgrain sectional door for a home in Peterlee

How convincing is the woodgrain?

Quality foils have a grain texture as well as a printed pattern, so they look and feel convincing from the drive. Up close, they read as a finish rather than real wood.

Which effects are popular?

Golden oak suits cottages and brick homes, darker walnut and rosewood suit stone and render, and grey-washed effects work on contemporary houses.

What can you choose for your Peterlee garage?

  • Darker woodsWalnut or rosewood effects on many ranges.
