Roller Garage Doors

The roller shutter garage door is one of the neatest garage door solutions available with vertical opening and closing and no internal tracking mechanism required inside your garage at all. These doors can be ideal for garages that are used to park larger vehicles such as 4x4s or people carriers. There is no intrusion into overhead storage space within the garage, and without having to remember the additional space a traditional up and over garage door requires allowing it to open, you can park safely inches from the roller garage door. The roller garage door is the most diverse type of door in terms of installation positioning and can be installed on practically any shape or size of garage with careful planning as to the final result.

Roller shutter garage doors are available as insulated double skinned aluminium and non-insulated single skin steel with the option of manual or remote control electric operation.

Sectional Garage Doors

Sectional garage doors are one of the most popular and practical choices for style, safety, security and an easy to use and versatile garage door system. They are called sectional doors because they open and close in seperated individual panel sections, operating vertically without any swing out from the structural opening and tracking mechanism at all. Because of this operation almost any shape of garage opening can be installed to, i.e. arched, angled corners, etc.

Up and over Garage Doors

Up and Over garage doors are by far the most common garage door type within the UK still today. Their simple one piece panel construction makes them very easy to use and provide both a low-effort and zero hassle operation. The Garage Door Centre can offer you an enormous choice of designs and materials for your new up and over garage door and will always make sure the size and gear type is correct for your requirements. After all if you do not buy the correct door you may not be able to actually use your garage for what you first intended it for!

The straight sliding action of a one piece door can also be doubled as a bi parting arrangement and can be fitted internally or externally (dependant on available wall space). One of the other main advantages of one piece sliding doors is the freedom of design it offers as there are generally no restrictions on thickness, weight or size of door panels used. We offer sliding doors as a solution to both domestic and commercial requirements.

Period Style Garage Doors

Garage Doors with Pedeastrian Access

The option of a pedestrian door (or wicket door) built into your garage door offers a very practical solution for anyone who visits their garage frequently on foot or has a house door entrance from inside the garage itself.
