Choosing a woodgrain sectional door for a home in St Helens
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.
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.

- Darker woodsWalnut or rosewood effects on many ranges.
- Matching side doorSame effect on a pedestrian door.
- Ribbed or cassetteWoodgrain on several panel designs.

Questions from St Helens customers
Does a woodgrain door need varnishing?
No. It is a factory finish on steel, so it only needs washing.

Timber sectional doors are available from some makers. We can quote, but they need regular finishing to stay in good condition.

Will St Helens Council need to approve my new garage door?
Usually not.
