Ideal for Regular Access

Automatic (electric) roller garage doors are the ideal product for homeowners looking to use their garage space on a regular basis. No longer will there be the need to get out of the car on a cold wet night to open the door, clamber back into the car, then get out again and shut the door.

Safe, Simple and Secure to Operate

An automatic roller door is very easy to operate at the touch of a button. Most homeowners who require automation prefer to keep one of the mini remote controls in the car so that the door is already open as they reach the garage entrance. Then you can simply drive in, press the button and the door is effortlessly closed again behind you. For homeowners who`s garage is accessible from the main house, this means that you will stay safe inside the car until the garage is secured. Perfect for those dark winter nights!

Safety as Standard

In addition to remote control operation, automatic roller garage doors also feature many other benefits such as courtesy lights to ensure you remain in a lit garage even when the car lights go out. Also, because safety is paramount, most high quality designs such as the SeceuroGlide Classic will be fitted as standard with a safety device that is able to detect any obstructions in the doors path of travel.

Made to Measure Sizes and a Wide Range of Colours

Vertical lift roller garage doors are ideal for pretty much any property type. Available in a wide range of bespoke sizes, they are an extremely versatile product and as such have seen a dramatic increase in popularity in recent years. Now available in around 30 colours, there is sure to be a design to suit all tastes. Also available are a number of realistic wood grain laminate finishes that create a more traditional appearance that blends well with older properties.

A Choice of Single Skin Steel or Insulated Aluminium Designs

Domestic garage roller doors are available in both single skin and insulated variations. The un-insulated version is ideal for garages that are detached from the main house or where there would be no benefit in installing insulated roller doors.

Thermal and Acoustic Performance

High spec insulated roller garage doors are ideal for garages that are adjoined to the main house as they will help to prevent heat loss through the garage opening. Where rooms are located above the garage, the temperature in those rooms will be better regulated as the insulation within the door panel will act as a barrier to the cold.
