Key questions about woodgrain sectional doors in Borehamwood
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.
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.
