Woodgrain and timber-effect sectional garage doors: what matters for Purley garages
Will the finish fade?
Good foils are UV-stable and made for outdoor use, though south-facing doors in strong sun will always weather faster than shaded ones.
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.
