Choosing a woodgrain sectional door for a home in Stretford
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.
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.
What can you choose for your Stretford garage?
- Golden oakWarm mid-tone.
- Darker woodsWalnut or rosewood effects on many ranges.
- Matching side doorSame effect on a pedestrian door.
- Ribbed or cassetteWoodgrain on several panel designs.
