Woodgrain and timber-effect sectional garage doors – example of the door type

What should Portslade homeowners know about woodgrain sectional doors?

Why not a real timber sectional door?

Real timber sectional doors exist and look superb, but timber moves with the seasons and needs regular finishing. A woodgrain-effect steel door keeps its colour and shape with only an occasional wash.

Can it match my front door and windows?

Many woodgrain effects are chosen to match common window and door foils. Bring a sample or a photo to the survey and we will compare.
